From Cairo to Cape Town - Carla Lights the Way

Recipe for inspirational story:

• 1 super cool woman
• 1 bike
• 10 solar lights
• 12,000km 

Bake in African sun for four months.

Here's the scoop - On January 14, my good friend Carla will begin a 12,000km cycle trip from Cairo, Egypt to Cape Town, South Africa. That, by itself, is pretty cool but there's more to it than that. In typical Carla fashion, she is taking this opportunity to help others. How, you ask? By raising money to fund 10 solar lights to be delivered along her route. I think she's also trying to get her hands on a wind turbine water pump, too!
