The short answer, from a medical & scientific standpoint, is nothing. Everyone’s MS is different. MS doesn’t do the same thing to everybody. The way MS affects me will be different from the way it affects you.
3 Nights in Rome
Rome. Another destination to tick off my Bucket List. A City of Seven Hills and lots of Cobblestones, (lots and lots and lots…did I mention the cobblestones?).
Challenge number 2, on my own personal list of places that I wanted to challenge myself on. A really ANCIENT city. I knew there’d be loads of historical attractions that, on the face of it, would be totally inaccessible to a bloke in a manual wheelchair. So were they?
3 Nights in Venice, Italy
This is not the usual tourist guide to Venice. Rough Guide, Fodors etc. do that perfectly. It’s a post about some of the mobility ‘concerns’ I had when I was planning my trip, and the adventures we had when we got to Venice.
FuelService App – this is amazing!
It’s a brief travel post of a sort.
I tried out the FuelService app this morning. For me – wheelchair user – it was AMAZING. I can’t understand why I haven’t used this before? According to the petrol attendant at my local Sainsbury’s, I am the first disabled person to have used it there since it was installed? Bonkers.
4 Nights in New York City
New York City was my first wheelchair dependant City Break. We went as a family, so plenty of pushing assistance from our 2 kids. We went in October 2017 but I’m only writing this up in January 2019 – I didn’t have the idea of starting a blog until mid-2018, so some of the detail and links might be a little outdated.
