The luggage tag arrived today and in just 9 days time I will be setting off for Sulawesi.

A massive thank you to everyone who has helped reach the fundraising target, we are grateful for your support.

I will try and post updates from the jungle and marine base if the signal is good enough!

I appreciate your prayers for a safe trip for the whole Hermitage OpWall team and look forward to the adventure.
