Field Trip

Travel Tips from an Adventurer who walked 7,456 miles across Africa. How long would that take if you walked 10 miles /day?
If you walked 20 Miles per day?
Would it be longer if you ran into a wild animal or had to cross a river? With Rapids?
How about if you had to walk through the desert?

This site gives comprehensive coverage of Rigby's journey North across Africa. An amazing undertaking and shows what one person can do when they are willing to try and complete a journey. What the journey brings to their life and inspiration for others.
Mario Rigby, became obsessed with the idea of seeing what he calls “the reality of the world.” 
Feeling emboldened, Rigby dubbed his human-powered expedition Crossing Africa; set up a website and accounts on YouTube, Instagram, and Twitter; and raised more than $14,000 in a GoFundMe campaign. His solo trek began on November 24, 2015, his birthday. “The gift of freedom was the best gift I’ve ever given myself,” he says.
Two years, three months, and 7,456 miles later, Rigby had traversed eight countries, including South Africa, Egypt, Malawi, Mozambique, Tanzania, Kenya, Ethiopia, and Sudan. Although he had set a budget of $3 to $5 a day (and picked up a sponsorship from Western Union toward the end), he was often taken in by kind and curious strangers, who supplied him with food, water, shelter, and friendship.

His next trip, The goal of the Electric Vehicle Africa project, which kicks off in November, is to promote the use of renewable and sustainable energy throughout the continent.



See the Great Pyramids of Egypt
Enshrined in history and popular culture (never forget the opening scene of Despicable Me), the Egyptian Pyramids have been standing resolutely for thousands of years. The stark contrast of the Pyramids looming over the bustling megalopolis of Cairo is a sight in and of itself, but pales in comparison to standing up close and personal to one of the world’s most famous and mysterious landmarks. Before you go, check out our guide to visiting Cairo. -- Tanner Saunders

ISRAEL
Traverse the Old City of Jerusalem

Three major world religions converge in the winding narrow passageways of the Old City, full of sites of deep importance to Jews, Muslims, and Christians, including the Western Wall and the Dome of the Rock. Taste local spices or indulge in a bowl of hand-crushed hummus before climbing to the edges of the fortified stone walls. There you’ll see how 3.7 billion people have come to claim Israel as their spiritual home. -- Emily Zemler

Tuesday 6/15 My Background is in Communications, This piece is a beautiful story selling a tough old American Brand. And I relate because at the beginning of Quarantine, I bought a pair of Work pants and hiking shoes and have worn them almost everyday.  They have stains, rips, a bleach spot, paint and my life displayed on them, and the story Jason tells is a beautiful. I didn't really know about Jason until I watched this. https://youtu.be/zL7SobTAnuQ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jason_Momoa This sums up Quarantine in a profound way for me. He embraces life and family. Ohana. This movie is worth the time it takes to watch. American and authentic. You may like this one too.
