Grab your earbuds and your Eurail pass—we’re going global with class credit. In this episode of Rhythm & Roam, we chat with our friend and her teenage son, Patrick, who recently jetted off on a high school trip abroad. But this isn’t just another "student tour with matching T-shirts" story.
Patrick, who is deaf and uses a cochlear implant to hear, shares what it was like to explore centuries-old castles, sip cappuccinos in hidden cafés, and walk through the pages of his history textbook—while navigating a world not always built for people like him. From accessibility wins to culture shocks and some seriously eye-opening moments, this is travel through a whole new lens.
Whether you're a parent wondering if study abroad is worth it, a traveler curious about accessible adventures, or someone who just wants a dose of real talk and inspiration—this episode is for you.
