Walt Balenovich: North America's Disabled Adventurer
Walt Balenovich just wrote to tell me about his excellent adventures!
I' know some PwD who do a lot of travel - but Walt just moved himself to the top of the list in terms of places he has been in the world. See his blog at http://travelsinabluechair.blogspot.com/:
6 Continents, 28 Countries, over 50 stories, countless new friends and only 1 backpacker in a dusty old blue chair.Take a look at his book "Travels in a Blue Wheelchair."
What would you do as you lay in a Zambian clinic alone with a broken leg? Or stranded aboard a small boat, in the dark, on the Java Sea, off Indonesia?
