Moving Out and Setting Up Your Own Place: Tips and Tech for the blind and low-vision community.

In this new episode from Blind Level Tech, co-hosts Jonathan Price and Evan Starnes share experiences and tips about moving out and setting up your own place from a visually impaired perspective. Evan talks about his personal experience of moving into his new apartment, including setting up appliances, navigating the space, and his first impressions of living alone. They discuss the lack of braille on appliances and keys in most apartments and how they've come up with DIY solutions for this. They also recommend useful apartment hunting apps like Zillow and Trulia. The episode wraps up with their Sandwich of the Week segment and a reminder inviting listeners to email or call them if they have any questions or comments.
