I never even thought when visiting old town Alexandria how some building have kerbs. It’s crazy how much you have to think of that most never have to. I was injured a year or so ago which made climbing stairs nearly impossible and it was eye opening. A tip for the metro is if you can back into and out of the car you won’t get the small wheels in the gap. Also the of the car is recommended for wheelchairs.
