Tom Fremantle's travels
Tom Fremantle is undertaking a canoe trip to Timbuktu following in the footsteps (roughly) of Mungo Park, the Scottish explorer. Park explored the river Niger and published his account in the 1790s.
Tom Fremantle is a writer, public speaker, and amateur farmer. He is author of Johnny Ginger’s Last Ride, about a 12,500 mile bicycle ride between England and Australia. His latest book, The Moonshine Mule, focuses on a 2,700 mile walk from Mexico to New York with Browny, a cynical but heroic pack-mule. He lives in Oxford, where he still rides a bicycle, but never a mule.
Tom Fremantle will be posting updates about the trip to his web site www.mini-mule.co.uk/ – keep up with his progress – sponsor him and support two charities that work with young people in need.
