Geoffrey Chaucer Hath a Blog

Chaucer could be considered one of the first English-language travel writers. This blog is a hoot!

Traveling well with a hidden disability
I've decided to focus on a difficult subject, at least a subject that is difficult for me: traveling well with a hidden disability.
Traveling with any physical limitation is a challenge, and lots of writers cover the practical aspects of limited mobility, wheelchair access, dietary restrictions, and many other such issues.
But what about people with hidden disabilities, who look healthy enough to the casual observer but suffer debilitating symptoms that can flare up unexpectedly?
With the right makeup and a smile, I can pass for normal under the right conditions, so I won't go any further into my medical history here. Perhaps another time I will carry on about my healthcare nightmares. What I do want to offer here, in future posts, are some suggestions and observations based on my research and travels.
