How do you handle “all the things” when traveling? One bag at a time….

Here are my go to tips to make traveling a little easier when you’re juggling a cane or other mobility aid.

👛Sling bag ✔️ this stays up front for easy access to passport, Credit Cards & money and any other travel essentials.

🎒Backpack purse✔️ for hands-free moving. Think minimum requirements for when you arrive at your destination in case your bag doesn’t make it. Consider carrying your essential make up / toiletries, a change of underwear and an outfit if possible.

🧳Checked bag✔️ for everything else. Sometimes carry-on works, but if you are traveling between airports and you have wheelchair service a bag can be very inconvenient.

I find it very difficult to walk with my cane and wheel my suitcase at the best of times. Even if I’m otherwise handsfree it’s a chore. The airport is the easiest & worst place to become exhausted.

Set yourself up for success get through the day get to your destination look forward to the nap, the friends, the family, the glass of wine🍷 at the other end!

I recently experienced an enchanting evening at Janevca at Rosemead House, where history, hospitality and modern dining come together with care.

For those of us with the less fluid mobility, heritage properties can sometimes feel out of reach. Stairs at the entrance, uneven paths or uncertainty about access can create hesitation. But here that worry is met with thoughtful solutions.

Rosemead House offers ample parking and a zero step garden entry leading you to the rear lower level entrance. First impressions of this breathtaking space might distract you for a second from realizing you’re faced with a set of stairs. Staff however, are ready to assist and es**rt you to the elevator. The journey is an experience in itself as it is installed in the state of the art upper and lower kitchens. It’s a clever adaptation that preserves the building’s heritage while making it possible for all guests to move comfortably through the space.

Washrooms are located on the lower level, meaning that guests who need the elevator during dinner will be es**rted by staff. It’s a unique arrangement that reflects both the challenges of heritage design, and the care this team takes ensure that every guest is looked after.

Overall, the atmosphere is welcoming and elegant in a maximalist way! The food was excellent and the service led by the warm and attentive staff made the evening unforgettable.

It’s not often that a fine dining venue and a historic building feels both enchanting and accessible, but Janevca has achieved just that.

If you are seeking a memorable dining without the stress of wondering, will I manage? This is a place where you can simply arrive, relax and savour the experience.

I’ll be back soon and I highly recommend that you visit too.

I have pretty much said it all in the slides.

Walking with less fluid mobility is way more complicated than it looks. I appreciate so much my friends who offer their arm and tell me to look at the steps that I acutally see - because I am not blind - I just walk differently.

If you relate to this, please let me know. I'm starting someting new here. I really think there is an audience out there who wanto to talk walking about walking gently.

You don't look disabled. You smile, you show up and people assume you're fine. But what they don't see is everything you calculated to get through the day.

They don't see you scanning for chairs, planning for rest or silently wondering if the elevator is worth the distance to get there.

Moving with less fluid mobility is its own kind of burden. It's often overlooked they think: "you're slow but you'll get there". What can't be seen is how much it's taking out of you to do it or how much pain you might be in.

It's taken me a very long time to become more open about my abilities, my needs and to admit that yes, day to day is difficult.

I started for women navigating the world with subtle mobility challenges, and doing it with grit and grace.

It this hits Home, you're not alone. There are thousands and thousands of women relating to this. Let's talk. What are your challenges and how would a few simple changes in attitude help you?
