Expedition Yemen By Camel part 2; The preparations
I am sitting in a tower house in the Old Sanaa writing this report. So I have made it in to Yemen again, ready to get things rolling.
A major part of every Expedition which is often overlooked, is the preparations. Which includes finding sponsors, figuring out a route, dealing with the daily life of normality, by which I mean, a family life which includes cooking, picking up your child at nursery school, trying to be a good husband, lover and father and get all details right as regards to what is waiting on the Expedition to be. It isn´t easy, but it makes a difference. During this last month before I finally got on a plane to San’a to initiate Expedition Yemen By Camel part 2, I have written down my actions, worries and thoughts every 3 days.
What a roller coaster journey it has been!
