22 Feb

Today was a rest day at Awasi in San Pedro de Atacama. We slept late, had a hearty breakfast and then took a short excursion into the Salt Pans where we got an opportunity to swim in the salt lakes that have 10 times more salt density than the dead sea.

All in all just a generally lazy day exploring the town and resting up.

Be a sport Many of us have the means and wherewithal to undertake the dreams we want but elect to choose otherwise, many however, do not and that is the purpose of this plea. Afrika Tikkun (http://afrikatikkun.org// ) is a South African non governmental, non profit charity organisation run by the Lubner family that in essence does just that; re-provide the possibility to dream and to create the possibility of turning those dreams into a reality.

Unlike many pleas of this nature, I am not looking for any kind of sponsorship for my trip, but I am looking for your donation, regardless of its size to Afrika Tikkun. Please pledge generously as this is a fantastic cause that will assist them to provide food, care, education, health and social services to those that are desperately in need.
