Secondly, being a woman had nothing to do with the reasons I halted - I was in fact stopped by authorities when civil war broke out in Niger. I realise that you are perhaps unaware of these developments, and know you have every respect for my expedition - but it is extremely important to make sure the facts are straight. Given that, despite being a woman, I walked over 6 times the distance Christian did (through 4 Saharan countries), I would not like it thought that my progress was hindered by my gender. Not that I have the hump, ha ha.....:-) Paula Hi Mikael – just a couple of corrections: firstly, I walked previously to Christian, and managed over 7500km through the Sahara before I was stopped.
