Have you ever thought what it would feel like to travel the world in silence?

For Nehama Rogozen, an avid traveler who happens to be deaf, her journeys around the world have not been in total silence because of Cochlear Implant technology. Nehama points out that she is deaf but not Deaf with a capital D and she explains the difference between those terms during our interview.

Nehama is a former Peace Corp volunteer who has traveled to far corners of the world. The cochlear implant and her ability to read lips has given her a slight advantage but there are other challenges she’s faced as a deaf traveler and some of those have involved things we often take for granted.

There are other concerns like safety, accommodations, the unfamiliarity with cochlear technology and communications in non-English speaking countries that Nehama has had to navigate.

Join us as we learn what it is like to travel the world as a deaf person.
