What are the friendlest country for a blind person to live? (self.Blind)

I don't think there is a single country that is the friendliest. In any large group, there are nice people, and there are rude people.
Some cultures do have weird stereotypes/superstitions regarding vision loss. For example, for some old-school Chinese families, they think that if a sighted person is touched with a white cane, it means they would lose their vision in the future. I had a very complicated time explaining to my grandmother that was not true.

Well put. I've had some good experiences and (probably more) bad experiences in Australia, but I'd imagine its mixed in most parts of the world.

Are you looking for how accessible a country is, or how they view the blind as a group?
