Road Queen 26
Girls always seem to strike up a relationship with other girls, even if they are on the road. But being on the road gives these girls a special reason to share and get to know each other. After all, when you're in a strange place, one gravitates to like-minded people. And who better than another woman that knows how you may be feeling at the time. Oh, in case you didn't know it, relationship building is in the female jeans (eh genes).
