Article for comprehension and discussion

This time I thought it would be a nice change to read an article instead of watch a video so I have chosen a very interesting article that will give us all some food for thought. It is about travelling with disabilities. When doing this I'd like you all to think about to what extent your own country has taken steps to help the disabled. That will be the basis of a discussion in your classes. Don't forget to leave your views and impressions in the comments section. Enjoy!

Sensing the world differently: How the disabled experience travel

Shedding light on the travails -- and surprising joys -- of traveling with a disability

By Rob Crossan 28 March, 2013

Boarding a plane, finding a toilet, fitting through the door of a hotel room. For travelers with disabilities it’s often the more mundane elements of travel that can make or break an experience.

There's rarely a moment when a wheelchair user isn't worrying about steps, or usable power points, or damage from careless baggage handlers or when a visually impaired traveler doesn't need some assistance in a new place.

But the flipside is a range of experiences many able-bodied travelers won't get.
