gusto: Discover badass female explorers to fuel your wanderlust

Hello PH 👋! I've always had a strong affinity for adventure. I often take weekend trips to explore new places and spend time in the wilderness. Naturally, I became interested in explorers. The more I looked into them and tried to learn about these people, two big things became apparent: Most famous explorers are 1.) not contemporary 📜 2.) men 🦸‍♂️ I wanted to know why exploration and adventure isn't a thing anymore and who modern day explorers are and what they are doing, especially the ones you don't hear about. I found a list of female explorers online and was shocked to find that even though their accomplishments were just as impressive, I had only heard of one or two of them. 👩‍🔧👩‍🎨👩‍🌾👩‍🚒👩‍✈️👩‍⚖️👩‍🔬🕵️‍♀️👩‍🔧👩‍🎨👩‍🌾👩‍🚒👩‍✈️👩‍⚖️👩‍🔬🕵️‍♀️👩‍🔧👩‍🎨👩‍🌾👩‍🚒👩‍✈️👩‍⚖️👩‍🔬🕵️‍♀️ Gusto puts some of these women on display so that you can discover and learn more about the people who make up 'explorers,' not just the explorers with good PR teams like Charles Lindbergh and Christopher Columbus. DISCUSSION 💬 Right now, gusto only curates female explorers both past and contemporary. Should it be limited to contemporary explorers? Should it be limited to only contemporary female explorers?
