Plus Size Travelers Changing The Face of World Travel!

One thing we know for sure is travelers usually have a certain look. Let’s take a moment and think about the typical travel instagram account or YouTube channel you see. Are they plus size? Not usually. Typically they are fit, thin, tan, and posing beautifully shirtless or in a bikini on a beach somewhere. This image is hard for a plus size person as it makes travel look like it doesn’t fit our body type.

If you have been following us for a while, you know our mission is to change the face of world travel by encouraging people of size to travel more. We are doing this by putting our money where our mouth is and leading by example. We want to show you, first hand, anything is possible no matter your size. Turns out, we aren’t the only ones with this mission. Enter Jeff Jenkins.

Who is Jeff Jenkins?

Jeff is a fellow plus size traveler from Austin, Texas. A city we lovingly called home for years previous to our full time travel. We found his website while doing some routine SEO work on our website. We couldn’t believe there was a fellow chubby traveler out there like us. What a small world, right?!?!

Jeff is a world traveler, travel blogger, and Instagram influencer. We are thrilled to have him on our show today!

Meet Jeff Jenkins!

Now an entrepreneur, Jeff Jenkins is a singer and former music teacher claiming new territory for plus size travelers. He is empowering everyone, regardless of size, to live boldly. Read his travel tips and encouragement, or schedule an international tour here.
