About
Cory Lee launched Curb Free with Cory Lee in 2013 after being determined to travel the world despite using a power wheelchair full time due to spinal muscular atrophy. The blog has since grown into a community of more than 60,000 wheelchair users and has won three Webby Awards and two Lowell Thomas Travel Journalism Awards.
What It Does
The site publishes honest, experience-based accessibility reviews of destinations, hotels, cruise lines, and attractions around the world — including candid notes on what did and did not work. It also offers practical guides on topics such as travelling with a ventilator, navigating airline wheelchair policies, and planning accessible safaris. A lively social media community allows readers to share tips and ask questions.
Who It Helps
Wheelchair users and power-chair users planning independent travel anywhere in the world. Especially valuable for travellers who need candid, first-hand accessibility information beyond what hotel websites provide.
