About the solution
JustGo by Sofia is a Portuguese blog managed by Sofia Martins, focused on accessible tourism. It provides detailed information on hotels, restaurants, transportation, and destinations around the world that prioritize accessibility for individuals with reduced mobility.
The blog highlights accessible locations primarily in Portugal but also includes insights on international destinations globally -from Asia to the Caribbean Islands-. It is designed for travelers with mobility challenges, their families, and anyone interested in accessible travel, offering practical advice and recommendations to make traveling more inclusive and enjoyable.
JustGo by Sofia helps users find and choose accessible places, ensuring a smoother and more enjoyable travel experience. It addresses common barriers faced by travelers with reduced mobility, providing reliable, firsthand information.
Besides her blog, Sofia uses her social media to share insights on disability, ableism, and the potential of accessible cities and lifestyles. Using her voice to advocate for people with disabilities, she demonstrates through her actions that wherever she wants to go, she simply goes.
Sofia’s blog has been featured on Portuguese national TV programs such as CASA FELIZ, where she shared her extensive travel experiences and discussed her commitment to accessible tourism. She has visited numerous countries, including Japan and Iceland, and continues to explore new destinations. Sofia believes that navigating inaccessible places can drive change and raise awareness about accessibility issues. As she puts it, “Every time I enter a place that is not accessible, I leave someone thinking, ‘I can make a difference there.’”
