A
I was born and raised in the tiny town of Lafayette,Georgia.It's a rather boring town,but luckily my mom
loved traveling so we hit the road pretty frequently.I was diagnosed with spinal muscular atrophy(脊肌菱缩症)at
the age of two and have been in a wheelchair ever since.My wheelchair and I have been to 14 countries and have
plans to visit many more.Since graduating from the University of West Georgia with a degree in marketing last
year,I've put all of my energy into growing my website.Aside from traveling and working on my blog,I love
going to concerts and trying new foods.
My mom was a teacher so she was off work every summer.We used that time to travel locally and took a lot
of road trips along the East Coast.Disney World was a popular choice.When I turned 15.we tried our hand at
traveling internationally and went to the Bahamas.These trips made me fall in love with travel and showed me that
there's so much out there in the world.
My mom always told me"If you can't stand up,stand out"and I try to live by that mentality daily.I might
not be able to stand physically.but I can stand.I can stand for anything that I desire,like traveling.A disability is
not going to limit me from seeing the world.I refuse to even entertain the thought that my disability could have that
sort of power.
It is much more difficult to travel as a wheelchair user.Over my life,I have met numbers of challenges,
especially when I was younger.But I've learned to be positive no matter when trouble comes to me.
