Why do you want to climb Mount Kilimanjaro?
I have hundreds of reasons….Is an amazing opportunity to discover Africa. I only have been in Africa once, in Morocco, and I felt that I have to go back a lot times more. I also love trekking so… what else to say… Kili could be one of the best places to do it so… there we go 🙂

What do you think will be your biggest challenge?
Umm good question. At the end during a long trekking a lot of challenge could pop up. I remember in Annapurna’s National Park that the rain was really challenging cause we have to cross a river due to the flood. But I think that in this case the biggest challenge could be the height.

How are you planning to raise money for UNICEF?
I am still thinking about it. I started putting a piggybank in my english conversation group class. I asked the teacher if she can ask to other classes to donate some money… so I think could be a good start. But as everybody I will ask friends and family J . I also have some weddings this year so maybe I will use the “piggybank strategy” there…

If there was going to be a team playlist for your Kili climb, what three songs would you choose?
Puff really difficult cause I like different music styles that I like to listen to them depends on my mood.
But for sure something about Bob Marley, Queen, Michael Jackson, Disney soundtracks… and also some Spanish songs. If I have to choose just three for this trip:
– La hoguera de los continents ( La Raiz)
– Hakuna Matata
– Buffalo Soldier

What luxury item are you planning to bring with you to Kilimanjaro?
I imagine that a mobile phone or a camera (and my ebook, it’s always travel with me)

What is your favourite chocolate bar?
Don´t have one. I love dark chocolate.

Is there anything you are dreading about the Challenge?
Dreading no… but will be challenging get to the summit and see how it feels at so much height.

What part of the Challenge are you looking forward to most?
To see the views from the Kili, they should be amazing.
