Normally I start packing earliest a day before I leave the country – but this time is different. The World AIDS Awareness Expedition is only starting mid April but already today I started to collect my stuff and to try to pack it nicely. Space is an issue and this morning I tried out to pack parts of the new cloths I organised for the tour to vacuum pack – interesting, funny, but working. It reduces the space quite a bit.. good so.. Last week I went for all the necessary vaccinations – from hepatitis to yellow fever and cholera – I have it all now and lets hope that it works for me and protect my body from becoming sick. I also decided not to take Malaria prophylaxis – it does not make sense to take it for weeks. But I got a test kit to test immediately if I feel I might be bitten by a mosquito and some emergency medication to keep it at bay. The clock is ticking.. in 3 months we are already 4 days on the run…
Move the world – by watching the blog, which will be hopefully updated during my journey every day – so you can follow and be part of this expedition. And maybe the fundraising effort. We are looking for 5 000 000 people donating each 1 Euro – the money is not for supporting the expedition but projects on the 5 continents dealing with HIV/AIDS like HOPE Cape Town. So if you want to be support, information how to do it is coming soon on this blog.
Be part of a great worldwide experience – and help to move the world…
