Ethno-Village Herceg (Međugorje): peace, stone, accessibility  and mind on Do Not Disturb!

This time I got lucky: Ethno-Village Herceg greeted me with enough real accessibility for a holiday to actually feel like… a holiday. How I chose  and why Herceg For years I’ve wondered when we in BiH will get to enjoy nature without playing Copperfield just to move around  or rather, not move  like a ficus stuck where someone “planted” me. Forget ramps, paths and independent explorin

Dubrovnik: Where wheels meet cobblestones, sunsets, and mojitos!

In April, I visited Dubrovnik and stayed at the Royal Blue Hotel , part of the Royal Hotels Dubrovnik group. The hotel is located in a quieter part of the city, with a beautiful view and a well-maintained surrounding – perfect for a short break. The reception is located in the neighboring Hotel Ariston , and after check-in, you go down a ramp to reach the Royal Blue entrance and the elevator that takes you to your room. Access is provided, but includes a few steps – both literally and figuratively,

Turbocharged Mobility: Mirza and Jelena Take on the SPEED3X RS in a Wheelchair Evolution!

Written by: Jelena Backović and Mirza Podžić We were eager to test out the SPEED3X RS attachment as soon as we saw it.

By: Jelena Backović Today I am talking to Anes Trebinjac Treli. The main topic of this conversation will be photography, but not the only one. Anese, I would like to start this conversation with the question of how long you loved photography and when did it become your main hobby?

Accessible tourism in Bosnia and Herzegovina, is another untapped potential!

When we invite citizens to visit certain parts of our country, do we not mean people with disabilities? Why the Tourist information offices and community  providers of tourist accommodation and atractions don’t see people with disabilities as consumers and users of their services? In short, if I want to spend my summer or winter in my country Bosnia and Herzegovina as a person with a disability, regardless of which entity I want to explor. My choice is more than narrow, you have the opt

Why is vacation planning for wheelchair users equal to mission impossible?

When I was planning a vacation in September, I almost had a nervous breakdown. Looking for economically acceptable accommodation I thought I found it in Istria, for the first time it was not a four or five star hotel but a studio bungalow, with affordable prices.
