When she was 23 y.o., Sri Lestari suffered a motorcycle accident which left her paralysed from the chest down. She spent 10 years at home depressed, after all Indonesia provides little infrastructure to disabled people. 



In May 2013 she drove 1200 km (750 mi) across Indonesia on a modified motorcycle which supports her wheelchair, visiting families with disabled members and empowering the message that being disabled still means freedom. Sri Lestari is a social worker.
