Justin Skeesuck and Patrick Gray are best friends, born just over 24 hours apart. They’ve been through life’s ups and downs together, they travel together, and they will do anything for one another. Justin is known as The Disabled Traveler, teaching and coaching people with disabilities in order to learn how to travel. He and Patrick will be embarking on a journey across El Camino de Santiago, an ancient 500 mile journey – Justin in his wheelchair and Patrick on foot by his side.
