Travel can be one of those things that, particularly as fat people, some of us can tend to get kind of angsty about (see any number of threads on "flying fat" etc.). And I think traveling internationally can feel like even more of an ominous thing, since the built world isn't usually made with us in mind.
But I think it can help to see pictures of fat people doing these things that seem impossible - to show us that they actually *are* possible and not to let things hold us back. Aust99 posted some photos of her traveling recently that I thought were really great - and they were really encouraging to me.
So here's a thread for us fat people to show pics of us in countries that are not our own! Show us how fat travel is done.
To get us started, here's a pic of me several years ago in Jamaica on a little pier, about to jump into the ocean. (I'm the fat one.)
