About me

Hi! My name is Bisa, and I'm a breast cancer thriver, plus-size adventurer, writer, and photographer.

After finishing treatment for breast cancer, I received a 5-year survivorship plan. It included monthly, then quarterly test and doctor visits. Instead of worrying about whether or not the disease would return, I created a recovery plan of my own. My plan included exploring the world around me and new experiences.

The blog's mission is to remind you we can create a life we love despite our weight and circumstances. My goal is to inspire others to follow their dreams and not wait for a devasting diagnosis to live the life you've always wanted. I want to share the power of travel to help through anxiety, stress after having breast cancer.

Join me on my journey. I still have miles to travel

Hi, It’s me. Bisa. Do you remember me? I pop in every so often and write something. When I write my elevator pitch or attempt to tell people what my blog is about, I stumble over my words. I don’t know what the blog is about. I want to write about travel. I would also like to...

A friend and I met up for brunch on Sunday at a restaurant named ”Brunch.” We wanted to try as many of their signature dishes as we could. Everything was delicious. We started with the Fat-mosa. We shared the Chilaquiles. She had the Flinstone French toast, and I had the Veggie Tofu Skillet with mini pancakes. I know we could go back instead of trying to order everything. But the leftovers were great too. Definitely make reservations if you plan to go. Wait times could be up to 45 minutes.

It’s restaurant week in Chicago. It’s the perfect opportunity to try out new restaurants by picking something off of there prix fixe menu. We didn’t plan to stop at @parsonschicken but glad we did. I could have a plate of chips and the strawberry cobbler any day.
I wasn't going to share because my head is chopped off, and I couldn't figure out how to fix it. Eight of the nine pictures are from that time I went to Tanzania and hiked up a mountain. You might have heard of it. Mount Kilimanjaro. 2019 has been an amazing year. Of course, there were some low points. But that's life. I'm looking forward to a new decade and whatever the future holds. #kilimanjaro #plussizebloggers #minoritytravelblogger #mylestotravel #plussizeadventure
Do you like my drunk snowman glasses? Lol. I had fun tonight at @kitaro.munster for paint and sip. The salmon wasn't included but it was delicious. #munsterindiana
The Alba White Truffles are grown in the Northwest Region of Langhe Monferrato Roero Italy. I had the opportunity to try something new. Representatives from Alba Italy tourism gave a presentation about how the locals find the truffles. You can tour wineries, hikes, and cycling. The area is a Unesco heritage site. All of the dishes were tried were delicious. arancino verde tajarin uovo gnocchetti Have you ever eaten White truffles before? I visited Rome over seven years ago. I can't believe it's been that long. I'm excited to go back in March. I'm not sure if I will be in Alba, but it is definitely on the list. #langheroero #monferrato
