Focsani, Vrancea -- (SBWIRE) -- 03/04/2014 -- Not knowing is, for Alina, overwhelmingly exciting. How can life surprise people if they know what they are you looking for? This is a manifesto for life as a journey: not knowing, expecting the unexpected, failure, making mistake, but also the light is so much brighter.
Alina has applied for the Darmasiswa Indonesian Scholarship. If she gets accepted, it starts in September 2014. The scholarship doesn’t cover the trip from the applicant’s home country to the place of study. So she has started thinking wouldn’t it be great to cycle all the distance to Indonesia?”
Alina is really confident in her chances so she has begun planning her trip anyway. She plans to leave in April and has only 4 months to reach Indonesia. Clearly, this 14,158 kilometer journey wouldn't be doable only by bike... just in four months and not without funding help.

€10,000 is quite a large amount. However, every beginning requires an investment. Almost 50 % will be spent on cyclotouring gear: for camping, bike equipment like panniers and racks, electronic equipment like GPS bike computer and satellite communication device. To be able to reach Indonesia by September, Alina needs to apply for visas before leaving. In order to smoothen the process she will use the services of local travel agencies. It smoothes the process, but also increases the expenses.
This campaign will receive all funds raised even if the funding goal is not achieved.
