Welcome harris.gb.net, the website of Richard and Rachel Harris and their endeavour to journey across Africa overland. We hope to include our motivation, planning and the journey itself as this project grows from fledgling pub-talk to fulfilment of an impossible dream. Richard broke his neck playing rugby in 1986 and is dependent upon a Trekinetic off-road wheelchair and crutches for mobility, but recent advances in self care (Peristeen) and the import of the incredible Azalai Land Rover Camper conversion make the adventure possible.
All that’s needed now is our commitment and belief – and quite probably a little luck and goodwill!”     RicH and Rachel
