Traveling on the road takes a lot of planning, especially being a disabled photographer.
I’d like to share some tips...
RESEARCH: know if where you are going is open to the public & ADA accessible...
PLAN: if you are staying in hotels, accessible rooms are limited so RSVP ASAP...
MAKE LISTS:
LIST 1- Wheelchair, walking sticks, portable stool, ice-packs, yoga mat...
LIST 2- Photography cameras, lenses, flash, batteries, charger, tripod, memory cards...
LIST 3- footwear, hats, coats, pants, jackets, tops, toiletries...
BE INFORMED: the weather can change at any moment during your trip...
BE AWARE: Always have a full tank of gas, be aware of your surroundings & have fun!
I trust that my research, area exploration, and personal experience sharing have been beneficial! I initiated this project in 2017. Through my journey, I have come to realize the importance of revisiting locations multiple times to provide updated information. This not only benefits me but also aids individuals with disabilities, the elderly, or those with limited mobility. Moreover, it helps raise awareness among trail users and park staff.
If you appreciate my blog and find the content in my blogs, TikToks, and YouTube videos useful, you can show your support for my project by making a donation. Any amount is welcome as every contribution, no matter how small, is valuable. Sustaining this project requires significant investments of time, money, and effort. I have poured my heart, soul, and resources into it, and the knowledge that my work is creating an impact motivates me to continue. Your donation will assist in funding my time, research, planning, travel, gas, accommodation, scouting, photography, memory cards, hard drives, and the creation of content shared in YouTube videos, blogs, Instagram posts, TikToks, and more.
