Plus-Size Peru (And Why I Packed a Plaid Shirt) !

October 23, 2016 Edith B

After 30 years of waiting, I finally went to Peru. First time I have heard of this country was through what became my favorite cartoon to this day, a French-Japan co-production titled “The Mysterious Cities of Gold” that was inspired by Scott O’Dell’s children historical novel “The King’s Fifth”. ►►►

Flying Plus-Size: Exit Row + Belt Extension = TROUBLE !

April 14, 2013 Edith B

Most of us already know that when you are flying plus-size, you can ask for a belt extension in order to buckle up while flying. But I found out at my own expense that belt extension + exit row seat = problems! ►►►

Clothes & Gear

Accessories + Women Backpacks

April 10, 2013 Edith B

They do exist and are said to be fitted based on women’s body but I don’t think they’re a necessity. ►►►
