Project for a journey from Germany to central asia (Mongolia) and back

[stickedy]

Some of my buddies and myself had the idea to make something real crazy before our 30. birthday, something you only make one time in your life. Following the idea of "The Mongol Rally" we had the idea to start a journey to Ulanbaataar (Ulan Bator) in Mongolia with a somewhat older car (Subaru Sambar, called Libero in Germany), to cross several exotic countries on our way there and back and to write a lot of reports and articles. And of course to take a lot of photos. And we want to do all this during the trip as live blog. Another exciting thing is total solar eclipse which takes place there on 08/01/2008, about which we also want ro report, if it's possible live.

 

So, there's the rub: We don't have much money, at least not enough to pay everything. Therefore we are searching for sponsors, which will help uns with money or with donations/loans so that we can do this journey. And after the journey we will put up all the remaining equipment to internet auction and donate the proceeds, because we really don't want to enrich ourselves.

 

I actually just want to hear some opinions, some guestbook entries would be nice and of course some steady visiting of the page to watch the progress of our project. And perhaps there is some who wants to help us in some way?
