By Alison is a TILT editorial series for travellers navigating change – disability, ageing, trauma, cognitive decline, loss; and for anyone who still wants the world to remain part of their life.
Through lived experience and professional insight, the series offers permission, possibility, and practical guidance for designing travel that works, with honesty, dignity, and support.
This is inclusive travel without sentimentality. Design led, experience driven, and human.
The world is still open.
San Francisco based Jan Bonville is an advocate for inclusive luxury travel and a partner of Inclu. Jan has lived with progressive mobility disability for over 20 years but has not let that stop her from traveling with her family around the world, particularly nature and wilderness destinations, many of which have been traditionally completely inaccessible to travelers with mobility impairments and wheelchair users. With a professional background as a former management consultant and in higher education, she uses her problem solving and partnership building skills to help destinations develop strategies for greater inclusion for people with mobility impairments and families of mixed abilities like hers. Jan is both a consultant and a writer for various publications.
