We have arrived in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, which marks the end of the first portion of our sea voyage from Rome, Italy, to Manaus, Brazil. During this part of our journey we crossed the Atlantic Ocean, making a couple of stops along the way.
Catch up with the Trekking the Planet team as Darren and Sandy review their time in Africa and the Middle East.
Catch up with the Trekking the Planet team as they cover their time in Jordan.
We came to Jordan to visit two of the country’s UNESCO World Heritage sites: the archeological treasure of Petra and the desert landscape of Wadi Rum. The way we explored each one took us off the beaten path and provided us with a more remote and memorable experience.
Before and after our trek we journeyed through the northern portion of Ethiopia. Our travels took us along the Historical Circuit, as we sought Ethiopia’s unique history and the role of religion in its culture.

Sandy writes about those times when strangers have come to our aid and helped us out during our journey.
Catch up with the Trekking the Planet team as they interview leaders in the Samburu community about the difference clean water can make in this very dry part of the world.
We spent a week in the Samburu region of Kenya, learning more about non-profit work being done to provide clean water to communities in the area. In the process, we gained a greater appreciation for the people in this area.
We are introducing a new way to view our material. Geography Navigator allows you to visually locate any of our previous dispatch emails, videos or education modules on a world map.
Darren provides an overview of our “quirky” methods to ensure that we do not leave items in hotel rooms.
