'BROKEN' - EMMA WHITE 1440 views AUST
Four and a half months after her boyfriend Kev becomes a paraplegic in Northern Canada, Emma accompanies him to Australia, where they embark upon a 18,000 kilometre camping and backpacking trip; travelling across the continent with Emma’s anxious overprotective mother, through the remote north west with a free-spirited British backpacker and down the verdant east coast alone, their relationship hanging by a thread. A unique travel memoir, this story takes the reader on a whirlwind trip around Australia guided by a young woman struggling to accept her boyfriend’s paralysis, and a paraplegic man backpacking during a time many spinal injured patients remain in hospital. Written from Emma’s perspective with dark humour, she examines the dynamics of their relationship and the impact of the injury, difficulties faced as Kev struggles to learn to live in a wheelchair in harsh and challenging country, and encountering perceptions of the disabled they had recently held themselves. Written with honesty both heartbreaking and humorous, this story will appeal to anyone with a love of adventure and dreams of leaving it all behind during difficult times.

EUREKA FREEDOM WHEELCHAIR ACCESSIBLE TENT website Spring is here and as the days get warmer so the need to go out and sleep in a field gets stronger, at least for some. Camping is the holy grail of wheelchair adventures, getting out and traveling wherever you want, pitching a tent and sleeping wherever you want to. Sure you can pack light and spend your nights crammed into a tiny single pole affair with barely enough room to do anything. But if you dont mind extra wieght, or have that team of sherpas to carry things for you, then the Freedom tent from Eureka is perfect for the wheelchair camper looking to do things with a little more style, and comfort. Watch this short YouTube video on the setup of the tent. - click the image to visit this site -

LONELY PLANET ACCESSIBLE TRAVEL PHRASEBOOK website All travellers will get more out of their trip by being able to speak a few words of the local language, but for people with a disability it’s often vital to be able to explain your particular needs. Since standard phrasebooks are unlikely to contain the language you need to talk about needs around disability we’ve gathered together some disability-specific words and phrases and translated them into as many different languages as we practically could. Although things are slowly changing for the better, there are still plenty of barriers to travel for people with a disability – language doesn’t have to be yet another. - click the image to visit this site -

JAIMEN HUDSON - 'THE VIEW IS BETTER FROM UP HERE!' website I have always been passionate about the outdoors, as a youth my days were filled with activities like riding dirt bikes, skateboarding, surfing and scuba diving. Learning to dive at age 10 only added to my love of the ocean. In 2008 I had an accident that left me a quadriplegic and in 2014 I became interested in drone photography and videography, although I wasn't sure I would be able to use the remote controller due to my reduced hand function. Since then though I've been lucky to have my work featured in many prominent media outlets and publications and have also won the Western Australia 'Young Achiever Award' in 2018. I hope you enjoy what you see...! - click the image to visit this site -
