Adrienne Carruth
Founder / Owner, Abroad for Adventure

Adrienne Carruth designs vacations as she does award-winning architectural projects – with European pizzazz and adventure. Carruth founded Abroad for Adventure in 2004, incorporating both her worldwide travel expertise and design-construction background. A self-proclaimed “planner and travel guru,” Carruth’s freestyle group travel offers women an affordable experience with an eye for luxury and a taste for adventure. After years of planning her own vacations, Carruth wanted to spread her sense of adventure travel “focusing on the needs of gay women, not vacations catering to gay men where
lesbians just tag along.” Hosting all trips herself and keeping groups to an
intimate 10 to 12, Carruth integrates ideas from around the world with the flexibility for women to do what they would like. Also a seasoned marathoner, Carruth adds, “Running through some of the best cities in the world allows me to add local color and flavor you don’t get from a tour bus!” – KD
