Although we hail from different countries - four Americans, two Brits, a Hungarian and a Spaniard - we are united in our passion for traveling and our determination to help the children of Cambodia.
Each one of us has traveled extensively, but has also dreamed of attempting a trip that could directly benefit those we encountered, as well as provide a challenging but rewarding experience.
While in Cambodia we found inspiration in the work of two charities: Mith Samlanh and M'Lop Tapang. Both were founded by earlier travelers with similar sentiments to our own - people who had borne witness to the poverty and hopelessness of street children in Cambodia, and were resolved to do something about it.
On our trek through Asia we will visit other local charities striving to provide a better life for future generations. By documenting our time with these organisations we hope to reveal the challenging social and economic conditions faced by many peoples, so that others may be encouraged to help.
We hope our journey - in a car never intended for such an undertaking - will inspire others as we were inspired by the founders and dedicated individuals of Mith Samlanh and M'Lop Tapang.
