Sahara Desert Trek 20'
After I completed the Half Marathon, I wanted to do something bigger and different! I signed up to trek some of the Sahara Desert.
Travelling to a different country on your own is a big deal, but I was super excited! I travelled from Edinburgh to London and from London to Morocco. I trekked the Sahara Desert over four days, camping amongst the sand dunes. Morocco was such a beautiful country to see.
Trekking across the desert for hours in extremely hot sun was tough. It was such a relief to get to camp and relax with some Moroccan Tea and beautiful Moroccan food!
Whilst I was in Morocco, the UK government officially announced that Covid-19 was a pandemic. I was over 2,000 miles away from home with now a panic that I wouldn't get home! My flight got cancelled. But luckily, I managed to get a repatriation flight to London. I made it back home with plenty memories, photos and more funds to The Eve Appeal.
