Indie Travel Podcast exists to help inspire people to travel and give them the tools the need to do it (and hopefully to help people avoid our constant string of mistakes!). We’ve been talking with Craig Grimes of Accessible Travel for over a year now, and are excited to see Craig start his own series of wheelchair-travel videos … and doing it indie too. The first is on accessible travel in Barcelona, Spain.
Accessible travel, or disabled travel, seems to be a fast-growing sector as cities work to make their facilities and transport systems more friendly for the “lap-packer”. I’m sure we all agree, there’s a long way to go.
Craig Grimes said,
Although it’s not very professional, it does give disabled people an idea of what to expect in Barcelona with regards to access and also generally what you can do. I should be recording a more professional version of this either in Dec or Jan with Spanish director Manual Mira which will hopefully give us funding to do some more in other places.
Good luck with the ongoing series, Craig, and to all our wheelchair-travel visitors, travel well!
