Thanks!

3 Cups of Coffee Is it possible that my blog, my video or any one of my actions throughout this project could provide you with as much enjoyment as 3 cups of coffee?

Thank-you for the support! A massive handshake or hug when I see you next.

A beautiful postcard of from somewhere on this journey, sent to you. This could be from on my sea-source-jungle journey (paddlingwithpurpose.com) or part of the to protest in Lima.

We totally went on an amazing trip (or trips) in days gone by. Lets reminisce for a moment. A heartfelt thank you, and cannot wait to see you again in this crazy world.

Inspiration. Have I succeeded? Can you put a dollar value on it?

You made my day. 1 Day of my epic journey, dedicated to you. To raise funds for this issue I am completing a 60+ day self-powered journey from sea to source to jungle. See paddlingwithpurpose.com I will dedicate one of these days to you, and take one picture with you in mind. This photo will be sent to you as a postcard, and may include a message from me on the back.

A Large One of a Kind Cairn built on the slopes of Yerupajá, at least 4500m in altitude. Overlooking the upper reaches of the Marañón Valley, this structure will be pummeled with snow and ice, which will eventually escape from the mouth of the Amazon into the Atlantic Ocean. It will remain as a tribute to your awesome generosity. -A postcard photo of the Cairn sent to you. With an account of the beautiful/arduous/? day that was experienced in the process of building it.

Dinner cooked by Ben (South American inspired cuisine). Upon my return to Melbourne we will cook a feast at your home (I probably won't have one!), catch up and have an absolutely enjoyable evening.

Name My Van. The trusty steed that I will buy to get me around South America. Many people will come to know and love it. My heart is set on a 1000cc Suzuki Carry, possibly the worlds smallest Van. Maximising the Space/Fuel Consumption Ratio, this is travelling in true style. Major benefits include low top speed ( CANNOT get into a hurry &will; enjoy scenery more), and low roof for loading boats. A Name is extremely important. With great power, comes great responsibility.
