Everything is changing so fast in today's world, yet remaining in touch has never been easier. As this ride has progressed I've learnt ever more about the myriad ways to talk with friends and family alike and I'm always astounded by progress. From instant messaging to the joys of Skype video, I've seen childhood Sci-fi become adulthood reality and I'm intensely interested in this. Doubled with the need to raise money for education, finding the motivation was easy.
So for everything I've worked towards and for everything this ride stands for, I'm delighted to be able to share my journey with you now from anywhere on Earth. It has been my greatest challenge to turn the physical world into the cyber one but now there are three easy ways to keep up-to-date with the expedition and the schools we visit.
