Traveling Insights from a deaf Traveler

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. Our interview with Nehama is thought-provoking and insightful. She says that the deaf and hard of hearing community is diverse. Some think that the term “people with hearing loss” is inclusive and efficient, but it isn’t because individuals who were born deaf or hard of hearing do not think of themselves as having lost their hearing.
