ABOUT MAGANDA EXPERIENCE
A travel group designed exclusively for women venturing solo for the first time on a journey of empowerment and self-discovery. Our mission is simple: to inspire and motivate women to step out of their comfort zones, embrace the unknown, and forge meaningful connections with like-minded girls who share common values.
We believe that every woman deserves the chance to explore, grow, and thrive independently. Whether it's learning a new sport, hiking through the jungle, discovering the most remote island, or immersing oneself in vibrant cultures, the possibilities are endless when you dare to venture solo.
At Maganda Experience, we understand that taking that first leap into solo travel can be daunting. That's why we provide a supportive and nurturing environment where women can embark on their Maganda Experience with confidence and courage. Through a carefully curated itinerary, expert guidance, and a group of travelers, we empower each participant to take that step while making lifelong friendships along the way.
ABOUT SILVIA GIMENEZ
In September 2022, Silvia hit a low point in her life. She felt frustrated and unhappy, as if she had lost her spark. Deciding she wanted to chase her dreams, she believed she deserved to go after them, even if it was hard.
By February 2023, Silvia flew from Barcelona to the Philippines without a return flight ticket . What was supposed to be a two-month trip for self-discovery turned into a new lifestyle. She instantly fell in love with the country and wanted to learn more about its culture, people, and islands. By her third month there, she chose to volunteer on Catanduanes Island, which changed her life in unexpected ways.
When she arrived at the resort where she would volunteer, Silvia felt a magical atmosphere that made her happy. Each day felt special, but she wished she had friends to share it with. This longing led to the idea of Maganda Experience, a project to share the joy of travel, explore amazing places, try new activities, and connect with wonderful people.
OUR VALUES

Courage: travelling alone is scary. We are at your side to take the first step
Independence: your strengths and independence is the most valuable thing a woman has.
Authenticity: feel yourself, no judgement, just women supporting women.
Community: being part of the sisterhood is the definition of power and unity.
