  It doesn't hold him back. Valentin Maury, a French student who spent a year on exchange in Uruguay, has low vision—a genetic condition that requires him to use a cane, but it doesn't hold him back. Between the second semester of 2011 and the first of 2012, he ran races up to 21 kilometers, went to parties, dated, went skydiving, followed Peñarol, and traveled to Ushuaia and Iguazú with his twin brother Aurélien, who also has low vision. Montevideo, he says, lacks the infrastructure that blind or visually impaired people need, but that is made up for by the generosity of the people.
