Who loves a romantic (and wheelchair accessible) getaway?
Four ideas for accessible retreats—beachside, forested, on the road, or in the hills, for an unforgettable couples holiday!
I long for the day when cities worldwide design and improve infrastructure with all citizens in mind, not just those who are able-bodied.
How is the access in your city?

New stuff built in Tokyo is pretty good but still a lot of old buildings
I find it really frustrating when accessible infrastructure is built but then is always out of service. Denver airport just installed accessible toilets outside the normal bathroom for easy access and they are either constantly in use by individuals who do not need them or locked so the cleaning staff doesn’t have to clean them. What a waste!

A new study sheds light on the travel patterns and obstacles faced by European travellers with mobility and accessibility needs. They found the biggest challenges to be:
- Information and Planning
- Transportation
- Accommodation
- Cost Concerns
What are your biggest challenges?
Knowing if the pavements and roads will be accessible. Hoping that there’s enough accessible shops, cafes, tourist attractions that are without barriers to enter. Wondering where I might find an accessible toilet when out and about, getting pleasantly lost as I explore new surroundings.
