(CNN) — When Elizabeth Gilbert shared the story of her year spent traveling post-divorce, it inspired more than a memoir.

Eat, Pray, Love, her story of traveling to Italy, India, and Indonesia, became a touchstone for many women around the world.

Since the book’s publication in 2005 and the release of the Julia Roberts-starring film in 2010, #eatpraylove has come to encapsulate a certain style of female solo travel, where the journey is just as important as the destination.

Has the idea of “eat, pray, love” inspired you to travel? CNN would like to hear from you.
