Day 12
Well Well what can i say! im just on the emirates plane now heading back to London.Im reminiscing on the entire journey.Its been such a unbelieveble experience,ive met alot of great people in my life but the Middle East is not what i expected it to be.Before the project began I was very curious and very suspicious because of my background i thought maybe there will be alot of conflict,tension and even rascism.Its completely the opposite.The people of the Middle East are the most friendliest ive ever met.What’s shocking is how friendly,kind and generous they are and will do anything just to help but dont expect you to give anything in return.Ive also learnt about myself personally and how have changed in the last 12 days.What ive learnt the most is to appreciate things more because they way we were treated was like celebrities and I think that we were spoilt by the activities ,the people we met and the places we visited.Also to rely less on time and to just let things flow.Unlike london the Middle East is less busy and the people take their time in things they do.
Wow! I cant believe how everthing has gone so quick but im gonna miss everyone very much.I think we all have built up a strong relationship within the team.We started the expedition as friends but now we are a family.I believe the future is bright and I wish everyone all the best.
Thank you for all the,people,the sponsors and anyone ive forgotten that made this whole journey possible and a special special thanks to Marjan your’e the best!.Stephen and Jamie thank you for the holiday i needed it!
And the OFFSCREEN TEAM thx for an amazing time,I love you guys!

Just got back on the internet after 2 days! WHAT AN AMAZING SEND-OFF YOU HAD!!!!!!!!! You have all journeyed so so far, and I know these experiences will stay with you forever.
Much love to you all. I can’t wait to see you back home. For now, I’m about to board a ship in 4 hours and seek a bit of knowledge (and peace) from the sea… and the great continent of Antarctica.
