Text Driven World

I recently travelled abroad for the first time in a long, long time, and suddenly realised how dependent I am on the ability to read signs, instructions and directions. When everything is in Italian and I only know two or three words of the language it can become a bit confusing.

I recently saw this article online and realised how difficult it must be for those with dyslexia to function in situations which seem easy to me.

Even driving to a strange town and trying to work out what to do in a car park can be a nuisance. I think it is interesting that even in her job as a radio presenter, Mollie King needs to be able to read phone texts as well as scripts and playlists, but has developed strategies to manage this part of her life.
