Kingsley will lead, Mashozi is the bursar, Ross is responsible for logistics and filming, and Nando’s expedition members Eugene and Willy will handle supply logistics and the big Land Rover 130 called the ‘UAM Mothership’ Colourful expedition volunteers Mike Nixon and André Bredenkamp, who have both climbed the world’s seven summits, are onboard again. The expedition will be joined by an Ethiopian guide and local armed militia – Anna Holgate will hold the home front as expedition liaison person. The excitement grows – life is an adventure!
