Fat Bodies Go Abroad

Thursday, March 25, 2021

All bodies are good bodies, and traveling abroad as a fat person brings extra challenges and opportunities. There are lots of things that fat travelers may have to think about that their thin or straight-sized peers do not. This brief uses a fat-positive approach to discuss travel preparations and daily realities of life abroad for plus-size students, including clothing, transportation, navigating fat bias and fat acceptance through new cultural lenses and languages, and accessibility of housing.
