Kili
Climbing Mount Kilimanjaro has been on my list of things to do in life for quite some time. Just recently, I realized how entirely possible this goal is.
I’ve interviewed a couple people who have been to the mountain in Tanzania, Africa, who make it sound competely doable. It’s not Everest, but that’s exactly what I want. It takes about a week from arrival to departure. You don’t need climbing gear, just a lot of water and suitable clothing. The altitude sickness scares me a little, but I absolutely think I could do this. I don’t have any desire to tempt death on Everest; Kili seems like exactly the right challenge for me. I couldn’t go tomorrow or anything cause I probably would keel over. I should get in some semblence of shape first.
Now, who wants to sponsor me? A package trip is over a $1,000, plus I’ll need airfare to get there. I need to make some rich friends.
