EAU CLAIRE, Wis. (AP) — A 23-year-old Wisconsin man with cerebral palsy who uses a wheelchair is creating an app he hopes will make traveling more accessible for those with disabilities. The Leader-Telegram reports that Gabriel Schlieve spent several weeks in Swaziland developing the "Rebel Traveler's Guide to the World" app through the Mandela Washington Fellowship for Young African Leaders Reciprocal Exchange. He plans to first start adding accessibility information about Eau Claire, the Twin Cities and Chicago.
