Chicago (Mai 2014)

Before I broke my leg I had planned a city trip to Chicago to visit a great friend. I was not able to walk and still wheelchair bound. I have been doubting for a while, but finally decided to go. It wasn't always easy, but glad I did neither postpone nor cancel the trip. I experienced how it is to travel as a disabled person and learned a lot from it.

The city of Chicago was a pleasant surprise, the city is clean, has so many things to offer, and I met friendly people. I visited many major sights and had a great time!

Many thanks to those who supported me and helped me making this trip happen ! ! !
