The Deaf Wanderer - Chris Haulmark

VIDEO: [CC] - Exclusive interview with 'The Deaf Wanderer' Chris Haulmark, shares the ASL vlogs "Leaving Cambodia for India" and "Exploring Delhi."



Chris Haulmark has been a world traveler since March, 2015 and have already seen at least 25 countries. He has created video clips "The Deaf Wanderer" since the beginning and is just emerging as a new social media force to expose the perspective, that he sees through his Deaf eyes, to the public. He hopes to inspire the future Deaf Travelers to see the wonderful and exciting world outside of their home countries.



Haulmark also hopes to prove that a Deaf traveler can be as independent as any other travelers. His videos are to show everyone how it's possible. Here's the introduction and interview with Chris Haulmark with closed captioning.





Part One: Haulmark created this vlog to show how he went from Cambodia to India to begin his wandering to last for a month in this exotic, crazy and wild country.



This is part of the Chronicles of The Deaf Wanderer going through India.





Part Two: Haulmark created this vlog to show what Anna and Chris have done during the entire day in the fantastic city of Delhi in this exotic, crazy and wild country of India.





Part Three: Taj Mahal is regarded as one of the most majestic sights for the entire world to behold with its eye being captivating held by it. This video shows how Anna and I left Delhi to head down to Agra to see the wonder of Taj Mahal.





Did you ever wonder what India looks like? Did you ever wonder about the people and the sights all around India? Ever been disappointed that the shows on TV channels are always too dramatic and overhyped when they are showing India? Have you ever been curious about the true characteristics of India? Do you want to see the true part of India that anyone would see themselves as they travel through India? Do you have friends who wonder about all of what you have already seen as a traveler in India and will, finally, able to say, “That’s what I am talking about!”?


These are the questions that Chris Haulmark is trying to answer with these videos.

PHNOM PENH - According certain beliefs in Cambodia, any disabilities is the result of a bad karma due to bad actions in a previous life.



The NGO Aide et Action runs a project which aims at changing people's behaviours, mentalities and integrate Deaf and Blind children into society. Through education, Aide et Action fights against exclusion and discrimination.





In Cambodia, the percentage of the population living with disabilities is one of the highest in the world. At least 650,000 Cambodians live with a disability, and the exact count may be as high as 1.4 million.



The incidence of disability is also expected to increase in the future. Despite the fact that many Cambodians have at least one disability, the country does not have adequate legal provisions to protect the human rights of people with disabilities.
