"Eco&Youth Empowerment for Tomorrow; In 2012 an expedition from Cape Town, S.A to Africas 2nd highest peak will begin! It is an Environmental initiative where we'll be traveling +14000km ONLY by PUBLIC transport & Sustainable means! However! Being a youth project...we will be stopping at Schools, where we'll be teaching pupils about creating and implementing a more sustainable and greener environment for everybody! Finishing it all at 5199m above sea level!!"

THE LAUCH!- "Bummer the camera didn't"
Low-down of the Presentation!!
The presentation went great, I spoke in front of roughly 50 people. It was small yet neat.
I presented my PANGAEA Himalayan Expedition AND MT. Elbrus, North Face
Basically, KAPE to KENYA has been officially launched.
its a new an unique expedition
incorporating PANGAEA & EPILEPSY S.A
Instead of flying through to Kenya...
We have decided to take ONLY public transport(taxi's, public buses, bicycles, ETC) up through Africa! Covering 6 African nations. and at the end attempting Africa's 2nd highest peak.
Why, this will be a green initiative. Raising awareness about Global Warming and destruction of our environment, which we've done. Why public transport? the idea of using public transport and carpooling is something which needs to become more popular (saving fossil fuels, lowering noise and air pollution, ECT.).
FINALLY! on our way up we'll be stopping at schools- sharing the idea of growing up and living in a sustainable community- A GREENER FUTURE!!
So, if it can be done up through Africa it can be done anywhere.
GET INVOLVED. SUPPORT THE CAUSE

Recap!!!
Recap........
OK, I've been out of touch with the whole blogging thing, no excuses.
2010- OK, how do I start to express how much it changed my view on life and how it changed me. I'm only 17, but it feels like I've been on this mortal coil for so much longer. Why?
From the last post,Yep, I did get through to the Himalaya expedition :) We spent a month in North Pakistan, Karakoram! The trip took us onto Baltorro Glacier, we researched the affect of Climate Change on the icy wilderness, we were the "Ginni-pigs" for the Mayo Clinic, and then Mike Horn lead an assault on an Uncharted "Virgin" Peak. We summited it, all 6170m's of it PANGAEA Peak!!
What made this something truly unique- the people of Pakistan. We get this stereotypical impression from our western ideals that the Middle East is full of bombs and violence, however all i saw was friendly and helpful people who live in a harsh and different environment.
