And how did you map the route out? Were you using GPS or anything like that?

I did have a GPS.

Most of the time I had just a big roadmap of Zambia and Mozambique and whatnot.

And I basically give myself like a weekly target.

Maybe I'll get from...

this town to that town within a week or that was an estimate.

I mean, it was very rare.

What was it like when you came strolling through with your map into some of these areas when people weren't necessarily expecting to see you? Were you well-received, or how did that go down?

But as soon as the temptation of surrender rears its head, it's swiftly repelled by an even stronger instinct.

I did think about friends and family, and I, I, I did think about, you know, if I don't do something in this, in this moment, then I'm not gonna see them again.

You know? That, that'll be it.

That'll be it for me, you know? And, and I think all that stuff does come to you.

You start to think, "Okay, this is my last chance, possibly, to do something about it." And I also felt like I, I don't wanna be that selfish person who sits there and does nothing.

I wanna get up and try to do something.

I did think to myself I'd rather die climbing down that cliff than sat there.

No matter how bad it gets, he can always draw strength from their resilience.
