Before I left Switzerland, one of the things I was most concerned about was my hearing problems, my cochlea implant. I was afraid that I wouldn’t know where to go, if I would have any problems with my implant, that I wouldn’t be able to find batteries, that I would be alone if I lost or had my implant stolen, and that I would have to deal with my problems without hearing anything.
Following several pieces of information that I was able to obtain, I thought why not keep you informed?
This page will therefore be there, I hope to reassure those of you who wish to travel.
You will find there the information that I was able to collect in each country, if you need to know more, I can get information for you.
