Adventure and body positivity come together in one powerful statement with Fat Girls Travelling, an Instagram account set up to celebrate globe-trotters fed up with the one-dimensional dialogue around mainstream holiday images.

California-based founder Annette Richmond, 32, set up the account after becoming frustrated with the lack of larger women in promotions and literature associated with travel.

“I rarely see girls that look like me — fat girls — featured on [major travel profiles]. But when I travel I see fat girls traveling,” the entrepreneur and stylist (pictured above and first photo, below) tells New York-based website Mic.

“I’m out here traveling and I’m seeing the world — I know we’re out here. But I feel like these bigger profiles or companies don’t feature curvy or fat girls.”
