Kristin Secor is a wheelchair user with muscular dystrophy and a travel blogger at World on Wheels, where she shares her experiences and tips to help make sure anyone with wanderlust can have the trip of a lifetime.

“There was a time when the travel industry didn't believe that people with disabilities were even interested in seeing the world,” Secor tells Yahoo Life.

What's more, "the world is not accessible," says Alvaro Silberstein, who realized this soon after he was paralyzed at 18 following a car accident. But Silberstein didn't lose his thirst for adventure, and with encouragement from his friends, the native Chilean took a two-week road trip to Argentina the year after his accident.
