Real Travel Magazine wants to publish story.
We started to contact all kinds of magazines in order to
see if they would be interested in running articles about
our trip either while on the way or after we have
returned.

These magazines ranged from subjects like Land rover,
flying, Paragliding, Paramotoring, Adventure, Travel
and even magazines like the Sunday Times
Travel Magazine and the Sunday mail.

When we spoke to Hannah James the Editor of Real
Travel Magazine who instantly loved the idea of what we
were doing. She agreed to take our articles after the
event and said that depending on content and quality
she might even spread it out to two or more.

Real Travel magazine is a great publication written by
all kinds of people and their global adventures.

TV production company excited about trip.
Element Productions is a TV production comapny that
we have worked with before to produce programmes for
S4C.

So, naturally when we were looking around for some
one to film the trip we obviously thought of them. They
instantly liked the idea but funding was going to be a
problem.

Apparently these kinds of things go in cycles and fall in
and out of fashion. One day you can go to the BBC
and they will commision a project such as this and
another day its too late, they're looking for cooking
programmes.

Anyway, Element were convinced that they could do
something for us so whatch this space, who knows.
