Skip the stress and bring back the wonder. From the floor of the Abilities Expo in Chicago, we sit down with Julian, a Barcelona-based traveler and tour operator who turned a life-altering accident into a blueprint for joyful, accessible journeys across Spain and Portugal. His philosophy is disarmingly simple: when accessibility is done right, you stop thinking about it and start savoring your trip.
Julian opens the hood on his travel packages that stitch together Barcelona, Madrid, and Lisbon using fast trains, accessible vans, and verified hotels. He goes beyond labels to talk measurements that matter: doorway widths, bed heights, ramp gradients, and bathroom layouts that make or break a day.
Julian’s incomplete C7 injury taught him to design routes with no weak links, from station entry to dinner seating. We also share a little football joy—FC Barcelona pride and a love for the NFL—because travel should feel like a good game day: immersive, exciting, and free of needless friction.
If you care about accessible travel, urban design, or simply want to explore Spain and Portugal without worrying about what might go wrong, this conversation delivers practical tips and fresh perspective. Hit play, then share it with someone planning their next adventure. Subscribe, leave a review, and tell us: what’s the one barrier you wish the travel industry would fix next?
