In July 2018 I am going to South Africa, to be precise Swaziland and Mozambique. During my visit I'll be doing many life changing things with an amazing group of people and the organisation World Challenge. This trip will be different to a normal trip as I will be trying new foods, meeting new people and experiencing a new way of living. Before I go I have to fundraise the money to go (which in itself will be a challenge).
l'll be immersing myself in local communities, meeting the locals in Swaziland and Mozambique which I'm so excited to do! Particularly I am most excited about the marine conservation trip. We will be taking in data, going on boat patrols and taking underwater photos. As many people know I'm not the bravest of people, I can get quite shy so this trip will be so amazing for my self confidence.
There are some wonderful trekking opportunities in Swazilands Malolotja Reserve, Ngwempisi Gorge or Lumbombo Mountains. Communnity-based treks, beautiful forests, rolling plateaus and challenging mountain terrain are what I've got in store.
We are helping a charity when we are out there called All Out Africa. All Out Africa is a charity who helps little communities and aids most expeditions. I'm so exciting to meet new people and help!
So, overall, I need as much help as I can get with fundraising to get there.
Cooking, dancing, walking, trekking, smiling, laughing and much more is what I hopefully will be doing in Africa in 2018! Thank you! X
