So after having presented the countries we'll be travelling through on our expedition, we present our expedition project "Stories from the Silk Road" With an anticipated starting date set at May 2023, we (Marcell and Claire) will commence our attempt to walk from Istanbul, Turkey, to Xian, China, a distance of 13,000 km (8,100 miles). The route will incorporate various sections of the different overland routes which were collectively part of what's known as the ancient Silk Road that connected the west with China in the east. In addition to some better known and/or UNESCO sites along the route, we will be focusing on getting off the beaten track and walking through lesser-known areas. This will allow us to spend more time with local communities and families; documenting their stories, histories, cultures and traditions and "seeing" if and how these were influenced by the Silk Road trade routes. We will be looking to get involved in community-based projects ranging from education to tourism and conservation. As we will be inviting followers from around the world to join us (limited number per visit of course) for some days, they will be able to participate with us in supporting these projects. In the coming 15-18 months, we will be reviewing a variety of projects wan potentially participate in and/or collaborate with. Thus, we hereby also extend an invitation to interested persons, organisations and businesses who might be interested in supporting the expedition and/or collaborating with us in some way, to contact us. As the planning starts getting more detailed, we will be posting regular updates on the route and places we intend to visit. https://www.instagram.com/p/CY4AbEcgfzi/?utm_medium=tumblr

Majestic glacier with tiny human silhouettes although it is also part of the sad story of glaciers in the Cordillera Blanca in Peru. The glaciers are receding alarmingly fast here with very noticeable differences over only a few months even. . . . #pastoruriglacier #cordillerablanca #huascarannationalpark #igersancash #igersperu #glaciermelt #glaciers #trekking #altitudetrekking #instatrekking (at Glaciar Pastoruri) https://www.instagram.com/p/CXhAqyMJHag/?utm_medium=tumblr

🇪🇸 La subida del Cerro del Medio por el Camino del Hachero (oeste) que hice 28 de octubre este año.

Autumn and winter sunrises in Tierra del Fuego are just simply breathtaking. At the moment you don’t even have to get up early (depending where you want to photograph it from of course) because the light show started around 8:45am - it goes without saying you need to have the warm clothes at the ready and a flask with a hot drink…me, always a flask of coffee. . . . #tierradelfuego #findelmundo #parquenacional #ushuaiafindelmundo #bahiaensenada #zaratiegui #trekking #trekkingushuaia #hiking #explorepatagonia #patagoniaargentina #natgeoadventure #turismoushuaia #turismoargentina (at Parque Nacional Tierra del Fuego) https://www.instagram.com/p/CO-lawnJKxW/?igshid=v73388neyu14
