"At midnight, fresh from the airport, our dream Lisbon stay turned into despair. Despite thorough planning and talking details with our host, four massive steps at the entrance froze us in awkward silence. It wasn't about the landlord's helpfulness, he would have helped in a heartbeat.

At that moment, I realized good intentions are not enough. We need a common language of accessibility that all understand: I decided to make it happen.”
