LONDON TO CAPETOWN OVERLAND - LEAVING JANUARY 2010

Hi All,

I am planning to drive from London to Cape Town in early January 2010. I originally planned to do this in September (hence the other posts) but had to hang around for slightly longer. January is now set in stone as i'm leaving work for this trip. If you fancy some adventure then read on!

I have a 300 series Landrover Defender called Himba which has been built from scratch to a decent expedition spec and am looking for 2-3 people to join me on this trip.

The trip should take around 9 months and take in:

Libya
Tunisia
Egypt
Sudan
Ethiopia
Kenya
Rwanda
Uganda
Tanzania
Malawi
Zambia
Botswana
Namibia and
South Africa

I’m a 28 year old male from London who’s had enough of city life and wants to fulfil a life long ambition! I’ve been lucky to have travelled quite extensively through Europe, the US, Canada, Central America and Australasia. I also spent January in Africa on an overland trip (Kenya, Tanzania, Malawi and Zambia) which has helped with planning this trip. I am a qualified first aider and have a fair amount of expedition experience, which will hopefully come in useful!

I’m looking for fun, well balanced individuals with a keen sense for adventure. Male or female, young or old makes no difference to me but previous travel experience would be very useful.

Every trip participant will be expected to contribute to the cost of the trip. I envisage this would be around £10,000 per person based on three coming, less if there are four of us. This will go purely towards the costs of the trip. I’d also like to involve a charity in some way – either through sponsorship or actual hands on work out in Africa.

If you’d like to join me or just find out a bit more, please feel free to drop me a line on the following email address:

Look forward to hearing from you!

Mike
