I seem to be doing this blogging thing a bit haphazardly... I guess I had better let people know how this whole Mongolia trip came to be!
About 18 months ago, I had several friends and family members head off to south-east Asia for adventures of their own. Having seen their photos and heard of the experiences each had, I decided that I wanted to do that too!
A friend of mine had done a few "charity challenges" through Intrepid Travel and suggested I do the same. And then a friend who initially was planning to join me in this suggested Mongolia as a destination... As so it all came to be!!
The charity challenge I'm doing entails fundraising $AUD6500 - half of which goes to Multiple Sclerosis Australia (the charity attached to this trip), and the other half pays for the flights, accommodation and most food throughout the adventure. My target has been a wee bit higher than this though, due to extra flights to and from Australia.
As far as I'm aware at this stage, all the other participants (there's 15 in total) are from Australia - so I'll be the sole rep from Kiwiland.... Bring it on!!!!
