Who are  Expedition Equus?

Two Girls, Two Journeys,  One Dream - this is Expedition Equus. 

Becky and Zena are about to embark on the journey of a lifetime in the hope of raising money for SOS Children.  Together, they form Expedition Equus - an adventure which will involve travelling from London to Tokyo on horseback.

Expedition Equus will span two continents, 15 countries and cover more than 15,000 km.  The journey will take approximately four years.  Becky will be completing the whole ride, joined by team member Zena for the first year.  After this, Zena will be coordinating the expedition from the UK.

Riding from London to Tokyo via the routes of the Silk Road, Becky shall be traversing deserts, including one of the world’s toughest, the Taklamakan (which translates as ‘he who goes in does not come out’), and mountain ranges such as the Tien Shan bordering Kyrgyzstan and China.  Experiencing temperatures as high as +50 and as low as -20, she has  to be mentally and physically prepared to face these  challenges.  Both qualified to teach abroad, Zena being a professional teacher and Becky having recently completed a TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language), they understand how education has enriched their lives and value what they are learning everyday.  They see this as a chance to share their insights and learn from the people they encounter and work with as they travel.

We are tring to raise £10,000 each to fund the expedition. Donate to Expedition Equus now to help us on our way!
