Sky Alton Writer, Gryffindor As a blind person, there are a few things that are more difficult (and on occasion, plain terrifying) for me to do. Travelling and exploring independently is one of those. When I’m with people, no problem at all: jumping off a platform into empty air, I nearly broke the harness by leaping off too enthusiastically. Climbing a volcano, I came back with pockets full of pretty rocks. Crossing a glacier, I sang Let it Go in the freezing rain (yes, really). But the thought of doing any of this without people there to do it with me daunts me more than most other things in life. But that’s just me: there are plenty of gutsy blind people who strike out alone and I wanted to tell you about a few of them.
