that being me I know my car is not
have it but it came first that I do
one more work they have to perform very well
they have given them very interesting data
they have said very parents things but
let’s forget his seriousness although we’re going
to start with the very very serious question
and make them all
the last time they went to a center
commercial
the last time they went out at night
how many wheelchairs observe
how many people with crutches and once
how many blind people are
I found everywhere that
I mention and take a few seconds for
think about it
the seconds víctor pep
Surely you already have your answer and it’s a
no person or very few and I mean
very few who can not count on the
fingers of his hands
well they told you nice things
of my love
I am also a psychologist, I am
lecturer by profession one
adventurous by own decision and a
scout of real heart scouts and as ya
they also mentioned he has a project
called branch you will not fall into what it consists
rando chains and saws my backpack and
travel through Mexico or Chile before
no bitch of a ride and others when
mexico and that challenge that I proposed was not
enough for me to say take away the
economic year
then it became my wheelchair
my backpack and no weight
Let’s start Chilean for Mexico
loved it seems incredible
I met a lot of people and when
that challenge one was enough and mexico me
it was small that is not small
they continue their america when being in
South America although admit all this
I hid it in my house does not tell you that
is with a cousin something like that and every time
who call my cousin
he surely tells him that he is in the
bathroom and I do not know how they ever suspected
that will last a long time in the bathroom
since we are already south america to and
he invited him to write a blog and I started
to write a blog and started to see a
little more viral mature and a moment in
the one that was impossible to hide the secret
do not
the secret is mutilating the world
I was already in some parts and greets me
to people and he says he thinks he read
my blog and the pri
the first major project documented that
I did it was from the door of my house that his
house up to touch alaska in saws without
no weight and equal not being able to wright
with the nom in trucks because that’s
other
please do not tell the authorities
I am an expert in colarme in places
but nobody has slipped in here without paying
and not because it was the first big challenge
documented but the truth is that real
he sent chains does not deal with this
madness of a backpack
no money and all things roan
chains has has a background and
I usually end the talks with
a story that once being with
friends in a bar and tell it and a great
paco friend is the guy I
helps a lot in these talks for
improve it always told me you have to
always close with that story is
story explains everything you do
for me it’s a story for not going to
talk do not believe that I’m finished I’m going
to talk because I think this is
something like an after show what
follow after then
it’s notorious that he has a
disability
I have muscular history Duchenne is a
single degenerative disease advancing
over time and that in some lands to
the 14 years already being in a chair
wheels to achieve my grandfather came with
the bicycle the house and told me raul
all teach to ride a bike and I
I immediately thought seriously seriously in
bicycle a boy in a chair
wheel
ok we go art chance and not have a reprint
I had nothing, it made it difficult
then I have to admit it my biggest
fear and I’m sure that’s why it’s that
I remember this story is that it went to
fall out to put a trancazo
as it were their we try and
it happened I fell down and I got myself a game
between the case and insisted on returning it to
try
and tried again and we will
try I’m not going to fall and did not go back to
fall and hit again and hit a
after again so good my grandfather and
thrown very angry believe me
insisted that he tried again and
he tried again one after another
and now fence a teenager crying
because I told them that
he insisted and today that anger would like
it could
we try it and its history already
spent more than ten years and that
bicycle is still in the part of
behind my house, that does not work anymore
bike bicycle and this is not a
nice story neither nor is it a story
that are not that exciting but still
unable to ride a bicycle and I know
that they expected or that maybe I told him and what
I achieved
when I did not make it and it still gives me
afraid to stay but
that time and that bicycle and that grandfather with
that idea so crazy that a person
could land on the bicycle was
what he taught me and he gave me
realize that nothing impossible
or at least we must believe it
I still think that it is impossible for a
person is still dragging a bicycle
but it was not that time that he showed me
its way
without words and with much anger and many
blows that by more impossible than what
it seemed like it would not lose anything if
I was trying
still for a fall then guys
I have to admit it
I have to admit it is something that not only
can you tell anyone please
these talks and when I traveled as
They told them
I was one year four months in Africa
same still wheels my backpack no
weight closed knowledge of the serious and
Very bad English but I had an amazing time
and and too many experiences
I met more and more people know
very many places but I do not try
do these trips because I would like to give
talks or inspire
in fact it does not seek to inspire if it
they inspired very badly very badly that you look with
this and jealousy scope of heart I have
a dream and dream as he once said
Martin Luther King that all the
people that I have in front at least
of ten it was a person saws
there would be a person with a cane to a
blind person that the next time
that I go wide with my friends
they are driving boss also see
too many disabled people
I do not think I ‘m the only person
disabled in the world and how
I arrived I will admit how I got to
this thought some state in madrid
I met a girl and she told me you’ve
put to think
madrid there are many blind people and
today I know if it is true that many people
the blind
why will it be first asked how much
I thought and said genetic questions
the food are spanish too
Spaniards are not so obvious and I read
answer and and very nice she
he answered is not true
well in and he told me in madrid there
too many blind people
the problem is that you do not see her on the street
because they are in their homes and I tell them what
same you is not that it is the only
boy what goes to a dive for the
Saturdays that goes to the movies that has a
couple
the problem is that in addition people
with a disability but do not leave their
case I do not know if because of their fears of them
well for the fears that they impose and
there are a thousand fear I know how I told them that
were the lands at 14 years old and
I admit when in that wheelchair
my world came down totally not
I knew that I would continue for myself
I knew what was going to happen and there was no
nobody that will explain that they followed or what
the next chapter after falling
on earth
nobody can tell me
for my luck I had some incredible
friends that I let them put me to play
Football still considers it a trap
that we’re right goalkeeper and I had some
excellent grandparents and an excellent
family that I’m sure they
they had many more fear is that I
I’m sure they had many
more questions but they never made me
present and they never let me know
guys tell you a little about this
I go and no, I do not like to be visual
we are not going to use a lot of presentations
but he insisted that I have to
tell them a story and you have to
tell them this story
it’s the story
being in Africa although you do not
creates
my wheelchair was stolen
if you do not want to steal the sierra maría
and backpack for a person saws is
very difficult then take my chair from
wheels do not take my backpack given steps
I sat down again took two steps
they dragged backpack and I sat down and that
guy came up to me and asked me
what’s going on here that I had to if I
could help something and so on and
I spoke to Chile and it has given my story
it did not turn out that he also backpack goes
and it was from Amman jordan amman jordan
it was my first point in africa
and how lucky is the boy
offered a deal that rejects too many
times and he keeps insisting and told me
gives you a deal I’ll char you my back
if you have accompanied me on your trips
and more backpacker tips and he said me what
they said but I’m not so light is not
as easy as 3
he insisted and insisted with guys
Imagine the friendship you create with a
man who charges you weeks in his
back that amazing landscapes that
It helps you speak a language that does not have
No idea is the story they told me
you have to tell rock as the
Theft of a wheelchair
led me to create a friendship that I am
sure will last for my whole life
of the boys elections rne manolo
chains
It’s not about traveling, I’m totally
sure and I repeat it and I repeat it one after
again that a big difference between
be a person with a disability and be
a disabled person I already consider myself a
person with disabilities and the word is
very similar
but it’s a totally different world
some day in a local center I met
a boy who was the one who started everything
this carlos the local center of people
with disability not one Saturday and the other
I saw it
and added my facebook and I thought that I
I was going to say that I see how you have a
photo in the pyramid of guiza or streets
in spain or something like that and not the first
what he says to me is apology the word no
mom who goes out and I do and
how do you do I get on my car I give
for my friends do not mames you drive yes
or yes but already repeat three times
mames fourth time gómez and they followed their
no mames fifth time
one after another after another after another and
I never asked him how I did it
for backpack mark as trip to since
how I went to and your question is how
that for me it was normal how I did it and
this guy every time you see a question
it was a prick my bubble of lies and
Witch lies about me disability
because what I believed as a person
disabled a whole lie I
I thought that I as a person
disabled could have a partner
I could study
I’m going to go out partying to be able to the cinema and not
for most people with
disability is a dream is something
totally unheard of our land is not
stay with guys and I want to tell you a
more adventure before saying goodbye but
I want it to be clear that its rank that
narrate what to our nuclear issue and
ranocchia our pe raúl rivers
anyone you can be part rando
chains
I’m sure it ‘s the religion that
they speak the language they speak and
color that we all have something in
common and that is that we want to be happy
We all seek happiness I seek it
every day
to finish I want to show the photos
of the most incredible adventure that
had
and surely it’s not my adventure anymore
amazing
surely the most incredible adventure
people have believed in me
had a thousand doubts about how a person
close to be able to turn around the
world but I’m here guys
telling them how I believe in all that
as I have the dream of seeing more
people with disabilities as I have the
dream that more parents create people
with disabilities and there is nothing left
say goodbye telling them that if you are not
they are my wheels but I do only
were that were not the chains and not
was in my house guys is
lining chains
I’m raúl rivas it was a pleasure to be with
you
Thank you
[Applause]
