Ever dreamed of exploring Japan? How about doing it without sighted assistance? Get ready for an epic adventure on this episode as Shawn chats with an intrepid trio – Clement, Russell, and Aman – who didn't just dream of visiting Japan, they made it happen. Follow their journey through bustling Tokyo, vibrant Osaka, and Fukuoka and discover how Clement, (who is totally blind and fluent in Japanese), masterminded the logistics, and how Russell and Aman embraced the unknown. From tackling tricky touch screens to mastering Japan's complex public transport, hear their hilarious hurdles, breakthroughs, and the real-world travel strategies they used to explore with confidence. It’s a great story of friendship, self-advocacy, and proving that adventure truly has no limits!
