76 - Kristin Secor on Accessible Travel and the World on Wheels Blog

Loading player...
In this episode I chat with Kristin Secor, founder of the World on Wheels Blog.

Kristin describes how she has adapted to accommodate living with a rare form of muscular dystrophy, and how she has managed to turn her love of travel and of helping people into an accessible travel blogsite.

Kristin also shares some of the details of her first small group tour to South Africa in 2024, where she is partnering with local company Epic Enabled.
