About

My name is Chloé van Dalen

I founded Stick with Chloé after being asked again and again:

“Do you know anywhere accessible I can go or stay?” Friends and strangers from around the world came to me for answers—because clear, trustworthy accessibility information was missing.

With over 20 years of lived experience using mobility aids—from knee braces to full-time wheelchair use—I’ve experienced the full spectrum of mobility firsthand. During my student years, when I relied entirely on a wheelchair, I quickly realized how inaccessible the travel and leisure industry truly is. It was hard to go out, meet people, or simply have fun—especially when you can’t even get past the terrace.​

That personal journey now drives my professional work. Through accessibility assessments, visual content, and curated maps, I help businesses and destinations become more inclusive—and show it clearly. With the accessible travel market valued at over €30 billion, accessibility isn’t just the right thing to do—it’s a business opportunity.

​

My goal is simple:
To empower people with disabilities to move freely, explore confidently, and feel genuinely welcome in the world.

​

Let’s make your space part of that change.
