Summer is the time of year when we all get the urge to fly away to a sandy beach or historical city for a well-deserved break and with the world being our oyster we’ve got a long list of places we’d love to visit – with some pin pointed locations where we can take an Instagram-worthy snap.
With Instagram being the place where we find everything from home, beauty and fashion inspiration, there are numerous accounts well known for taking stunning photographs all over the world and we want in.
Amongst these travel influencers are women who are not only globetrotting and taking us along on their travels through social media, but these 5 barrier-breaking Arab women with a contagious travel bug.

Haifa Beseisso (@flywithhaifa)
Haifa Beseisso is not only an Arab Muslim travelling the world. She is a humanitarian at heart who is also a vlogger and YouTube personality that immerses herself into the essence, color and life of each destination she visits, and what makes her travels unique is her emphasis on revealing the oneness of humanity, common hopes and dreams, and that what brings humans together far outweighs differences. In each country and each city she visits, she asks the same question to people, “What is your dream?” The answers she receives are uplifting, touching and inspiring.
