For this trip, I have spent a lot of time thinking and researching. \u00a0There are so many different things I need to buy, do, arrange and prepare for.<\/p>\n

As this isn’t just a social drive through Africa, but a corporate one. We have to organise functions for 100’s of people each week in a different city, host rugby and eye clinics, visits schools as well as take in all the sights and deal with whatever the continent has to throw at us.<\/p>\n

This means I need to make sure we are overland ready and we have all the necessary things we might need for the clinics and functions, that can’t be sent ahead by DHL.<\/p>\n

In addition, I need to brush up on my French (lessons), my off-road driving skills (practical lessons), my first aid (course).<\/p>\n
