A 2017 Retrospective

December 29, 2017 Edith B

While writing this 2017 retrospective, I realized that… I haven’t hiked as much as I wanted! I didn’t travel as much as I wanted either! But there is good stuff too in that 2017 retrospective! ►►►

Plus-Size Bulgaria: Veliko Tarnovo (Велико Търново)

December 13, 2017 Edith B

Veliko Tarnovo (“The Great Tarnovo” / Велико Търново): nested in the heart of the Northern Central Bulgaria mountains, this green and lush city is the second smallest town I visited during my Bulgarian adventure. ►►►

True Story

Vive La France! (Is Quebec Sleeping…?)

December 6, 2017 Edith B

until quite recently, Canada had nothing to envy to France when it comes to how they treat their fat people. Plus-size people in France have it quite hard. Not easy to be a fatty in the Camembert country! ►►►

Destinations

Plus-Size Bulgaria: Varna (Варна)

November 29, 2017 Edith B

Varna (Варна): third biggest city in Bulgaria and gateway to the Black Sea beaches, a lot of casinos and luxury hotels. Still, in spite of all this luxury, this is a backpackers spot on the budget-traveler route across Bulgaria. ►►►

True Story

If You Still Wonder “Who Wants to See Plus-Size Models?”…

November 22, 2017 Edith B

After reading an article on “inspiring plus-size models from Montreal”, in a newspaper, last February, I noticed that we still have a looong way to go to reach “fat tolerance”. ►►►

Destinations

Plus-Size Bulgaria: Ruse (Русе)

November 15, 2017 Edith B

Ruse (or Rousse – Pyce in Cyrillic) is usually seen as the gateway to Romania. Too often neglected by travelers, the city definitely has something to offer! ►►►
