About Girlsbum

The Birth of GirlsBum: A Journey from Comfort to Courage GirlsBum is a space for women who are already beautiful — but haven’t fully owned it yet. We gather in the wild — beaches, mountains, jungles — not to escape life, but to remember what it feels like to truly be alive.

Why I Started GirlsBum – A Letter From Ruiees

Hi, I’m Ruiees.
A little introverted.
Very much in love with movement, the outdoors, and the quiet kind of joy that comes from being somewhere far, yet strangely close to yourself.

For as long as I can remember, I’ve always chosen to travel alone whenever I had the chance.
Not because I didn’t want company,
but because I believed — and still believe — that sometimes, the best way to meet yourself…
is to walk into the world with no one else to answer to but your own soul.

Every solo journey has gifted me something:
A mountaintop sunrise that whispered, "You are stronger than you think."
An ocean dive where the silence underwater calmed the noise in my head.
A hike that left my body aching, but my spirit glowing.
A golden sunset that reminded me, "It’s never too late to begin again."

Each trip, each view, each stranger I met along the way became a mirror —
reflecting a better, freer version of me back to myself.

And somewhere along the path, I realized:
It was never just a trip.
It was a quiet becoming.
A slow remembering of who I was before the world told me who to be.

That’s when GirlsBum was born.

Because if I could feel this alive, this awake, this free —
why not bring other women along with me?

GirlsBum is for the ones who crave more than just a vacation.
It’s for women who are already beautiful, already enough —
but haven’t had the space to fully feel it yet.

It’s for those who want to:

Move their body and remember its strength.
Sit by the sea and hear their own heart again.
Laugh wildly with other women who just get it.
Explore the world and, in doing so, rediscover themselves.

You don’t need to be perfect.
You don’t need to be “outdoorsy enough” or “fit enough” or “brave enough.”

You just need to be you —
and be open to meeting the version of you that’s been waiting all along.

Come as you are.
Let’s go somewhere beautiful — together.
Let’s make becoming a way of life.

Welcome to GirlsBum.
A place where you don’t just travel.
You come home — to yourself.

GirlsBum: A Safe Place for Women to Come Home to Themselves

This isn’t just a trip.
It’s a journey back to the version of you you’ve quietly been missing.

The one who glows.
The one who’s a little wild.
The one who’s curious, strong, soft, sexy — all at once.
The one who’s been told to dim down, stay quiet, or be “less.”

GirlsBum is a space for women who are already beautiful —
but haven’t fully owned it yet.

We gather in the wild — beaches, mountains, jungles —
not to escape life,
but to remember what it feels like to truly be alive.

This is for the woman who wants to feel 5% more like herself again.
More joy. More play.
More “I want” instead of “I should.”
More love — for her body, her energy, her truth.

You don’t need to be perfect to join us.
You just need to be ready to meet the next version of you — the one waiting within.

Welcome to GirlsBum.
Come as you are. Leave as who you’re becoming.

Who Is GirlsBum For?
Our Dream GirlsBum Tribe

GirlsBum isn’t just a travel group — it’s a space where unique souls come together.

We welcome women from all walks of life — different skin tones, different cultures, and different stories.

Some might be doctors, others accountants, freelancers, creatives, or entrepreneurs.

They might come from Malaysia, Singapore, Brunei — and one day, even Vietnam, the Philippines, Korea, Japan, and beyond.

We may travel solo —
but when we come together, we create something powerful.

For three days or more, we share stories, laugh, cry, and inspire each other.

We return home with more than just photos —
we carry back clarity, courage, and connection.

Our dream girls are in their 20s to 40s —
They’re not here just to escape.
They’re here because they believe:

“There’s more in me. I just need a space to explore it.”

She may not have it all figured out yet.
But she knows she wants to feel free, bold, and real.
She refuses to be boxed in by expectations.
She’s curious. She’s kind. She’s ready to grow.

And that’s what GirlsBum is all about.

A project built not just for one type of girl —
but for every woman who believes there’s more waiting inside her.

Active Lifestyle, Always

Movement brings me joy and excitement — whether it's sweating in the gym, catching waves, or hiking through nature, I feel most alive when I’m in motion.
