A young Chinese woman has turned her home into barrier-free accommodation for tourists in wheelchairs, making travel easier for people with disabilities. Cui Yameng, a 20-something woman, runs a homestay out of the first floor of her home in Qingdao, a popular seaside tourism destination in east China's Shandong Province. What makes her homestay special are the barrier-free facilities she designed by herself, and the accommodation offered to handicapped tourists free of charge. Her first floor has a ramp at the doorway, a lower kitchen counter, and a specially designed sink with wider access for wheelchairs. Cui recently welcomed a tenant, Zhou Zhizhu, whom she befriended before. Zhou, who was born with spinal muscular atrophy, had wanted to see the ocean, and finally traveled to Qingdao. Cui said the reason she opened the homestay had a lot to do with her grandmother, who had to use a wheelchair because of her diabetes before passing away. Cui's homestay attract media attention and before long, other homestay runners came to her for experience, expressing interest in incorporating barrier-free facilities in their homestays. Cui said she expects more people to join in the efforts to help wheelchair users travel more freely. Shotlist: Qingdao City, Shandong Province, east China - Recent: 1.
