Is this the oldest Instagrammer in BC? She's certainly one of the most awesome

While exploring the #fraserriver hashtag on Instagram yesterday I came upon the most wonderful user: Eileen Bry.

While exploring the #fraserriver hashtag on Instagram yesterday I came upon the most wonderful user: Eileen Bry. Her tagline is "Have Scooter Will Travel" and while she suffers from chronic obstructive pulmonary disease she doesn't let it stop her from exploring the world around her - on her scooter - and sharing it with us. This woman is an inspiration, the way she captions her photos offers insight on the accessibility of our public spaces and it takes us into a world that many of us don't know.

One of the things that I find intriguing about Eileen is that she's so far removed from any of my peer groups and the service seems geared towards younger folks. Do you know other people who might not be the most likely users of Instagram? Email them to me at bobk@vancouverisawesome.com.
