This October I will walk 400 miles in the mountains of South Africa to create the Rim of Africa Multimedia Trail Journal: a locally informed, interactive resource designed to educate South African youth on the Cape Floristic Region and conservation through the story of creating Africa’s first Mega-Trail.
I seek sponsors and donations! If you are interested in helping this project go forward, donate via Paypal.
