We are all over the place. Come with us!

Half Sky Journeys was founded by Ila (pronounced "eye-lah") Asplund. Ila was inspired to create a company focused on 1. Travel, with a purpose 2. Maximizing financial and advocacy impact through well-designed journeys; and 3. Always holding women, girls, and children as top-priority beneficiaries.

She has not done this alone. Half Sky Journeys' advisors, supporters, and partners are legion!

Half Sky Writing & Half Sky Journeys

My name is Ila Asplund. My vision is to increase the impact of purpose-driven businesses and organizations — particularly those advancing gender equity and social justice. I do this through creating in-person and digital engagement experiences, storytelling, and thoughtful communications and content strategies for my clients. I've also provided international journeys to give travelers the opportunity to meet and engage with global leaders in countries like Cambodia, Kenya, and Rwanda. ​Thank you for checking out my website!
