10 more sleeps to go…..
Kilimanjaro climb with my colleagues – and what’s left of it
January 25, 2019
The Countdown Begins…
January 26, 2019…and while I feel like I have been ready for 6 months, now with only a few days to go, suddenly I feel like I’m totally unprepared!
Here is a brief glimpse into my thoughts right now…
It’s going to be hard – physically and mentally
I’m going to experience some stunning new sights, sounds, smells, tastes and textures
I’m going to meet new and amazing people
I’m going to make new friends for life
I’m probably going to forget to take a very important piece of equipment
I’m probably going to remember to take something utterly useless
I can’t wait….
PS – thank you Ascenders for all the wise words. Your advice may have taken my kit acquisition dependency (and budget) to another level, but it means I will have the best experience possible – I can’t thank you enough for that.

Enjoy the journey Will, I’m so envious of you all. I’d climb it again in a heartbeat. I won’t wish you and rest of the gang luck, it’s not needed. All you need is a little love and the belief that you can smash this, I know you will all be amazing !
Wonderfully put, Joe! I so agree with all of the above. Team Twende, enjoy the excitement and anticipation although it can be exhausting to finally get ready for the big adventure.
Will you’ll have a trip to remember all your life , I,m sure you will get so much out of it, whatever happens.
