Brief detail of my story

Recently went on the land convoy for Gaza from London last mid-April. Thank you to all that helped me to go on this dream of mine, whether it was financial support or emotional support. And a huge thank you to one of my best friends who agreed to come on this trip with me & I couldn't have done it without him. Even though we sadly were not able to enter Gaza due to Egypt stopping us and wanting us to hand our aid and vehicles to Israel, all the wonderful people I met on the convoy will never stop until the Palestinians are free. We will never forget them. Thesis is in process right now :)

3 countries in 2 days

Well, it would have been in just 1 day but it took us so long to finally be cleared by the English and French authorities that instead of driving straight in to Belgium we stopped at a BP station in France and stayed in our vans. Now that was an experience. We had 3 of us in our bus and we all just fit as it as way too cold and damp too sleep outside in the tents. Even waking up under a duvet wasnt enough and now I wish I had bought 2 but nvm, its all good.

So we have now arrived in Belgium and just trying to find a place to stay for the night. Been very exciting and as calm as I guess a convoy can be :) plus my co-driver has gotten a hang of the gear so yey!!

TTYL :)
