About Ticked Bucket List

Travel planning that starts with what your body may need.

Ticked Bucket List helps travellers with chronic pain, fatigue, and flare-prone conditions spot what could make a trip harder, choose what to protect, and plan the next useful step before bookings and travel pressure stack up.

  • Clinician-founded
  • Pain-informed
  • Built for low-energy planning
  • Planning support only

Created by Dr Timothy Murithi Mwiti, a pain specialist and anaesthesiologist. Planning support only — not medical advice, medical clearance, or emergency care.

Start with trust. Then choose one next step. TBL helps you think through pacing, flare risk, backup choices, and recovery before the trip becomes harder to change.
Why TBL exists

A trip can look simple on paper and still ask too much of your body.

People with chronic pain and fatigue often need planning that is more realistic than a standard itinerary. TBL helps you notice the pressure points earlier.

Small stresses can stack.

Airports, transfers, standing, bags, heat, poor sleep, crowds, and social pressure can add up quickly.

Changes are easier early.

It is easier to simplify a trip before bookings, travel day, or group expectations make changes harder.

Recovery needs space.

A useful plan includes what happens after travel day, not only what happens at the destination.

Founder

Created by a pain specialist who sees how pain changes travel.

Ticked Bucket List was created by Dr Timothy Murithi Mwiti, a pain specialist and anaesthesiologist based in Kenya. In pain care, small stresses can stack quickly: sleep loss, waiting, heat, standing, rushing, uncertainty, and recovery time. TBL brings that lens into travel planning.

This does not make TBL a medical service. It means the planning starts with what the trip may ask of your body, what to protect first, what to simplify, and what to do if symptoms rise.

How TBL helps

A calmer way to think before you commit.

The goal is not to make travel perfect. The goal is to help you see what matters early enough to make a better choice.

Spot what could make it harder

Look at walking, waiting, heat, sensory strain, timing, transfers, sleep, and recovery time.

Simplify before you book

Adjust the heaviest parts while there is still room to change the plan.

Protect what matters most

Choose what to keep, reduce, delay, or drop if symptoms rise.

Leave recovery space

Plan the return period so the trip does not end in a preventable crash.

Clear boundaries

What TBL can help you think through — and what it does not provide.

These limits matter. TBL can support planning choices, but it does not replace your clinician or emergency care.

TBL can help you think through

  • What could make the trip harder.
  • What to protect first.
  • How to pace the trip and leave recovery space.
  • What to do if symptoms rise.
  • What questions to ask travel providers or your clinician.

TBL does not provide

  • Medical advice, diagnosis, or prescribing.
  • Medication-change guidance.
  • Medical clearance or fitness-to-travel certification.
  • Emergency care or individualized treatment.
  • Legal advice, insurance advice, or full-service travel booking.

Planning support only. New, severe, unsafe, or rapidly worsening symptoms need urgent or emergency care as appropriate.
