- Hello people, I'm Kirsten. I've been living on my own as a blind person since I went away to college, and I moved to Washington D.C. as a true adult over eight years ago. So these 12+ years of experiences have helped me put together this list of things that every blind person should think about very carefully before they move out on their own. Because it is not only possible, but immensely doable, and I want you to be smart, secure, and fabulous in your new house by yourself.

Thank you Kirsten. Excellent video. I’m 84 and losing vision from macular degeneration. I appreciate your suggestions.
Very relatable. I live alone and do most of these things that are relevant to my level of vision. It’s so great that you’re making this Contant. Keep it going!
I love that you’re sharing all the lessons that you learned so others can be successful too! You’re awesome :)
I love you all, low vision or blind/ visually impaired, we are the future. Stay strong.. god is good. Your never alone. Have a wonderful day stay safe.
Thank you. I am legally blind and I needed this
This lady is so cool!
Yet another great video, can’t wait for more content
Thanks so much for sharing
I just discovered your channel and I am truly inspired by your courage and resourcefulness. So refreshing to know that blind and visually impaired people can live a good quality and be independent. I am a high-functioning legally blind person and I truly appreciate your nuggets of wisdom, life hacks and other tips in navigating through life with what we deal with. Thank you for sharing 💕 😊.
I really appreciate that. It’s really interesting to make these videos because all you can do is talk about your own experiences and hope they help people. I’m glad you are enjoying my videos so far.
I have been searching for an app that ensures that my makeup application is on point for many years! You are a life saver!
Aira is also another option for things like checking makeup. It isn't completely free, though you do get five minutes every day and you can use it for longer if you are at an access site. The agents are specifically trained to be visual interpreters and are not volunteers. Be My Eyes definitely works; I'm just putting out an additional option.
Hello listening to your video yeh! That all sounds familiar as being blind , nicely explained what we go through thanks for sharing :) greets Mak :) enjoy your day

Sister your great me mona
You're an awesome person. Really . As a person with a perfect sight , your video is really inspiring. You're a pretty person. And I understand your point. The truth is I always wanted to bond with a person like you. And I do believe that being blind is not a hindrance to do everything that you wanted. Your amazing and a tough one too. Continue to inspire others. God bless always and take care.
Hi, new subscriber here from Philippines. I’m a mom to my 2 year old daughter. We were planning in moving as a family in UK where my husband will be working. Would you suggest if this is a right move for me considering that I am a completely blind person and just learned a few things as an independent person. Hoping for your response soon.
I'm so disappointed in my Dyson! :( I got a Big Ball Animal+Allergy II, and in less than 3 years, stuff broke on it. The brush bar lost a screw which I haven't been able to find, the dust bin's button to open it broke (luckily it stays closed with friction, but you have to be careful when taking it to the trash to be emptied), and the little flap near the lower left-hand side of the dust bin with rubber around its edge also broke--and I can't put it back on because the plastic literally snapped. I bought a ton of accessories for it, too, so it was really a hefty investment! I'm going to buy a Sharkk Apex next, I think. I hope I can recoop some money by selling the Dyson accessories.
It seems u understand the problem a bit more than others
Still, progress is too slow
Us blind people still don’t have enough influential champion’s
You are so beautiful
