Now that long-distance walking is no longer possible for me, I will continue my ataxia awareness-raising/fundraising efforts by making short city walks, highlighting the accessibility of the most-popular cities, hotels and tourist attractions I find, and especially highlighting those businesses who are leading the way when it comes to accessible tourism.
And the first of these tours, which I am currently in the middle of, is a tour of European capital cities.
I’ll be sharing loads of articles/photographs of my trip as I go, which I will share here, and on Twitter and Facebook.
So sit back and enjoy a tour of Europe.
