It can not be denied that every individual pursues the conveniences of physical comforts and conveniences of self-actualization especially when he or she works hard for it.
The pursuit of such objectives, where one is blind to the need of others and deficiency of their surroundings, becomes a hollow pursuit.
The only thing that matters in the end of the day, is been part of a greater common effort to remedy the worlds problems. Gandhi once said: “Be the change, you want to see-in others and the world”

An Epic Journey Starts Here
It is with immense excitement that I share this news - Open Africa got awarded a 3 year World Bank contract to develop 8 new routes ! - 1 in Northern Namibia (Okavango Delta) and 7 crisscrossing Zambia.
The following earnest preparation has started for this epic journey, namely:
- Buying a hardcore vehicle: What better than a 4.2 liter V6 Land Cruiser 70 Station wagon
- Equipped with roof rack, rooftop tent, 4 Jerry Cans, ARB + Winch, gas, spade, high lift jack, 4 ammo case drawer system, Waeco fridge, dual battery system with 12V/220V converter and awning system.
- Research on Zambia and Zambian support organization
Land Cruiser 70 Station Wagon
Yes, no computer and DVD screens!
“Horses for Courses” – This one will run on cooking oil
The intention is to keep you posted on every step of my journey over a 3 year period and hopefully convince you to follow suit.
