That about covers our list of ingredients, I think, so do keep donating (already donated? Heck – do it again!) via the webpage linked on this site and we’ll keep you guys updated as we travel, as and when we get the chance to.
Prayers,
Phil and Dom
After some research into how best to carry my tent, clothes and other essentials, I bought one of these in February: an Extrawheel trailer. It clips onto the back of my bike incredibly easily and makes luggage easier to carry than panniers. (My bike, being a mountain bike, isn’t set up very well for panniers.)
