FLIRTING with foreign men, eating exotic food, guilt-free shopping and getting lost - welcome to the wonderful world of women-only travel.

Bellas Travel Nirvana founder Shauna Paine, who specialises in female-only holidays, says women have way more fun flying solo.

The Brisbane-based tourism operator, who is launching Bellas Travel Nirvana this week, says female-only adventures are literally taking off.

Here are 25 reasons why.

1. You can go wherever you want without argument

2. You can do exactly what you want - whether that is lie by the pool, drink champagne, read trashy novels or go exploring on foot.

3. You can peruse the shops as long as you like.

4. You can buy whatever you want without someone asking "what do you need that for?"

5. You won't be embarrassed by someone's stinky farts in crowded places.
