Among the items he listed were shoes with adjustable straps to prevent swelling, comfortable clothing, a sturdy backpack, an XL beach towel, and mullet scrub shorts.
Other favorites on the list were sunscreen with spray mist, which she said were helpful for protecting hard-to-reach areas, and a cooling microfiber towel to wick away sweat and keep you cool.

Another item on Kirsty’s list was spray sunscreen, which she said helped when dealing with hard-to-reach areas.
The last articles he listed were: a wheeled suitcase, a portable fan easier to carry than a bag, and finally a sense of adventure.
TikTok users took to the comments section to praise the video for helping and trusting them.
One wrote: “I finally found the courage to book a solo vacation, so your account will be a blessing.”

According to Kirsty, although her content has received a lot of vile comments from people, she doesn’t let that stop her from sharing her travels.

The video encouraged people to jump into the comments section and share their thoughts on plus-size travel.

Earlier this year, Kirsty created a travel video that went viral and sparked thousands of phobic reactions to online trolls.
The video, in which he shared his flight experience with Ryanair and revealed that the seats were too small for taller passengers, caused social media users to call the blogger “cow” and tell him to wait.
According to the creator, he receives between 50 and 3,000 hate comments per day under videos or articles.
And after she posted her viral video, she said there wasn’t a day she didn’t get small comments from strangers online.
However, he promised not to listen to derogatory comments and continue to create content for oversized travel companions.
From the rude comments, “Happy people don’t hurt others and for the most part, the people who leave these comments are not happy in their own lives and therefore come out of others.
“If you’re in a position to receive a lot of comments, remember that their opinion doesn’t have to define you.
“Take care of him the way you need him best and maintain your big self.
“Those who leave hateful comments on people’s posts, remember that behind the screen someone like you is reading them.”

The blogger also shares her adventures on her travel blog Plus Size Travel Too, where she talks about traveling as an elderly person and says that the experience is far from comfortable for tall people.

Kirsty visited vintage and chocolate shops on a trip to Ghent, Belgium.

Plus-size travel blogger again divided after claiming that trying to get into an airplane seat caused ’emotional damage’
Oversized travel blogger Kirsty Leanne, 29, from Shropshire, first made headlines a few months ago when she shared another viral TikTok about her struggle to fit into an airplane seat.
The video sparked controversy among TikTok users, with some critics saying that he should buy two tickets or stop the flight.
Kirsty, who runs a travel website as a major called Plus Size Travel Too, is an avid traveler, but says the experience is less comfortable for taller people.
“I travel regularly and flying is definitely one of the most stressful aspects of traveling when I’m fat,” she said.

Choosing a comfortable seat, asking for seat belt extensions, non-folding tray tables, small bathrooms, tall people are all things to worry about when traveling, and so Kirsty wanted to show people that they were not alone.
“I wanted to make an upbeat video using a very popular TikTok trend to show what I know many people encounter while traveling.”
He went on to explain that choosing a comfortable seat, requesting a seat belt extension, non-folding tray tables and small bathrooms are all things taller people should worry about when traveling, adding, “I wanted to show people that they’re not alone.”
On TikTok, Kirsty can be seen with the caption “emotional damage” while the tray can’t go all the way down, while getting on the plane and showing her seat belt tight on her stomach before sitting down.
The clip received over a million views and 42,000 likes, but split users.
Some people felt that Kirsty deserved to fly in comfort, while others felt that airlines wouldn’t have to switch to accommodate large-scale people.
