Travel with Disability

Life is difficult for differently abled people since there are necessary things in everyday life that they are not able to do. For instance, driving would be near impossible for people with no legs or sight, literature for the blind or even just eating for those who do not have limbs. But because of technology and change, these seemingly impossible things for the disable now become possible if not easier.

The National Mobility Equipment Dealers Association helps differently-abled persons and their families to cope with their disability. It is a non profit association that caters to the needs of the person specifically. Unlike other equipments that are sold in catalogs the NMEDA dealer makes sure that certain equipment are specifically for your own needs. They offer “in person” evaluation to make sure that the equipment suit your lifestyle and needs. And not only that, they also provide additional training and product refinement in order for you to be more independent.

The NMEDA Quality Assistance Program requires their dealers to provide 24-hours a day and seven days a week service to their costumers. QAP dealers have a system in place where their costumers can readily contact them and so they can respond immediately to the problems or needs of the costumers.

If you have problems regarding caregiving or independence from other people or family members, or going to travel with a disabled member of the family, you can contact the nearest NMEDA qualified dealer. They are not only there to help find the best equipment for your needs but also help you in getting back on your own feet and be more self-sufficient.

MasterCard and Holiday

The best thing about having a Mastercard when you have a wanderlust is that it is sooo easy to book a holiday. You can do so on your own, in any place, anytime, at your own convenience. I have been booking my hotel stays and airfare through my credit card. I usually don't get any promotions. I just do for the sake of convenience.

But today, I discovered that if you are a MasterCard holder, you can enjoy one free night if you use your MasterCadrd to book for your Accor Hotel accommodation. That would mean you get to stay for 3 nights when you book for 2 nights stay at the hotel. There are 188 participating Accor Hotels and that would include Sofitel, Pullman, MGallery, Grand Mercure, Novotel, Mercure, ibis and All Seasons. Wow. MasterCard Cardholder - Exclusive Deal is just an amazing deal.

I would usually book for bed and breakfast stay and avoid booking for chain hotels because even though chain hotels have promotions, it's still expensive to stay. But when you get a promotion of extended one night stay, it's all worth it.

And, take note of this: if you book now, you can get a chance to win a 3 night stay in a private villa at the 5-star Pullman Sanya Yalong Bay Resort! Awesome. There are 10 prizes to be won.

Why don't you try booking now using your MasterCard. You might get a chance to win another holiday. Who knows this could be your Christmas gift for this year... :D
