3 Things - Tuesday, December 19

'Tis the season for holiday travel. Whether it's by air, land, or sea, traveling with a disability can be a challenge. Here are three stories from three travelers with disabilities.
  1. The Truth About Traveling While Disabled ~ Meg St-Esprit  
    Beyond the required ramps, doorway widths, and bathroom stalls, disabled travelers want—and deserve—to experience the same things non-disabled travelers do.

  2. The Disabled Traveller’s Guide to Planning a Long Holiday

Additionally, I spent a decade providing therapy to patients with chronic health issues and physical rehabilitative needs.

  3. I Use a Wheelchair, and My Trip to the Galápagos Islands Was a Dream for Accessible Travel ~ Elizabeth Doughman
