Welcome to Nomadic Currents – A Journey Beyond Limits
Hello, I’m Yemi, and this is my journey and could it be yours too.
As someone who loves the thrill of train journeys and the serenity of ferry rides as well as long road trips, I also understand the unique challenges that come with travelling as a person with disabilities. Whether it’s navigating stations, finding accessible routes, or ensuring the right support is in place, travelling can often feel like an uphill battle. But it doesn’t have to be.
At Nomadic Currents, I explore the joys and hurdles of travelling by train, road and ferry, providing insights into how to make these journeys more accessible and enjoyable. Rail, road and sea travel offer a sustainable, carbon-friendly way to explore the world without flying, and they can be some of the most rewarding experiences when the right support is in place.
This blog is your essential guide to accessible travel as well as culture, offering practical information on:
How to travel solo or with a companion (Plus One) – understanding assistance services available for disabled travellers and travellers with unhidden disabilities.
Wheelchair and mobility aid-friendly routes – ensuring smooth access from start to finish.
Discounts and benefits – available travel perks for disabled passengers, including railcards, free companion travel, and ferry concessions.
Station and ferry terminal accessibility – what to expect and how to prepare for a seamless journey.
Personal experiences and travel stories – real-world insights into the pleasures and challenges of train, ferry and road travel.
Most journeys start from the UK, but the adventure doesn’t have to end there. Whether you’re commuting daily or planning a cross-country trip, Nomadic Currents is here to ensure your travel experience is as stress-free and enjoyable as possible.
