I am Chelsea Mathews a deaf/ hard of hearing world traveler.  I created Chelsea Rae Travels to share my stories whether they are funny or frustrating and to show that travelling solo is not at all terrifying.

My Story

I'm not sure how old I was when took my first ever plane ride.  I just know that it was Florida only because that's what my step mother told me.  It is because of her that I developed a love of travel.  When I was a child, I was able to fly to places because my step mother used to work for an airline.  Because of these experiences as a child, traveling as a deaf/hard of hearing person was not hard as I knew the protocol.  2015 is my first year venturing out of the United States.  That trip was not intended to be solo as I was hoping a friend would come with but she was not interested and I ended up traveling to Dominican Republic out of anger so I had no time to be scared on my first international trip.  And then the rest was history.  I'm writing this blog because I want to share my stories.  My family says I have fun stories to tell but you know family, they like to hype you up.  Along with my stories, I hope to inspire anyone nervous or contemplating traveling alone to just do it.  The more I travel, the more I learn about myself and my ability to handle situations that come up.  Travel is so very important to me that I plan trips to have something to look forward to when life gets hard or busy.  Thank you for stopping by and I hope you enjoy my stories.
