Lin Xin-Bei (林欣蓓) was suddenly paralyzed at the tender age of just 4 years old. After doctors failed to come up with a reason for her condition and her family were equally baffled, Lin Xin-Bei’s illness was finally labeled “acute spinal inflammation”. From that point on, she would never be able to walk on her own two feet again, and has been confined to a wheelchair ever since.

In spite of her paralysis, she was determined not to give up on life, and sitting on her wheelchair at a height of just 135 cm, she embarked on an epic round-the-world travel adventure, visiting 10 countries; Lin Xin-Bei proved that people confined to wheelchairs can do all the things that “people with two good legs” can do. In June 2014, Lin Xin-Bei spent a year traveling through the 10 countries of Japan, Thailand, Austria, Germany, Switzerland, France, Belgium, Holland, New Zealand and Palau, on an epic journey of over 50,000 kilometers.

Lin Xin-Bei’s life was indeed radically transformed when an unknown cause paralyzed her for life. But though she has complained, felt indignant and thought about giving up, in the end, Lin Xin-Bei one by one overcame all the barriers life threw at her. Today, she is pretty much just like anyone else; working hard, enjoying life, and traveling to the four corners of the earth – perhaps with just one added attribute, fearlessness.

輪椅女孩林欣蓓 無懼困難遊世界

林欣蓓在4歲時毫無預警地癱瘓。醫生找不到原因,家人也沒有頭緒,最後林欣蓓被冠上了「急性脊椎發炎」的病名,從此無法用雙腳走路,只能坐著輪椅一輩子。但她並沒有因此而放棄人生,用坐著輪椅「一百三十五公分的高度」旅遊十個國家,證明輪椅族也能做到「兩隻腳才能做」的事情。2014年6月,林欣蓓花了一個月的時間,走遍日本、泰國、奧地利、德國、瑞士、法國、比利時、荷蘭、紐西蘭和帛琉等十個國家,一共五萬多公里的旅程。

不知名原因造成的癱瘓,確實改變了林欣蓓人生的方向,她抱怨過、不平過、想放棄過,但最終仍然一一克服,現在的她能跟一般人一樣認真工作、享受生活、四處旅行,甚至比一般人多了一份無懼的力量。
