Swimming to kenyaHello, my name is Beatrix and I'm a 16 year old girl from London; I'm currently trying to raise £3860 for a trip to Kenya in 2014 after I have finished my GCSE's. The money I raise will not only pay for my own trip to Kenya, it will also be used to support the projects I will be working on, in terms of the equipment and materials.
In order to raise funds for my trip I will be swimming the distance to Kenya using the conversion 1 mile = 1 length. It's a total of 4318 miles to Kenya which means I will be swimming 4318 lengths over the coming weeks and months. Along my journey I will be passing through cities such as Brussels, Istanbul and Mecca. Each week I will be updating you on how far I am along my journey. I have now finished my swim, and will be travelling to Kenya on the 20th of July after completing all my exams! I would like to thank everyone who has donated towards my trip, without your help my dream of travelling to Kenya this summer would never have become a reality! |
