Live your life #OrDieTrying

So curiosity got the better of me and I finally decided to visit Moria. Yes, Moria the headquarters of the Zion Christian Church (ZCC). To jog your Sunday School memory,   Moriah is the mountain where Abraham was to sacrifice his son Isaac, at God’s command. If you’re a member of the ZCC, Moria is your spiritual home where the prophet Bishop Dr Barnabas Lekganyane resides and it is the destination of each Easter pilgrimage where more than 3 million members gather. The ZCC has membership of more than 6 million, making it one of, if not the largest Christian denomination in Southern Africa.                               Aerial view of the City of Moria courtesy of Ivan Muller Moria has been on my to do list for a few years. I have enormous interest in people of different denomination, culture, religion, race & nationality. This is the main reason I travel the world, especially Africa in recent years. I still dream of Pre-colonial Africa where there was freedom of moveme

It was exactly 7 days after my birthday in 2014 that I decided to take on Mount Kilimanjaro. I had done almost all the wild activities on my #BucketList, from flying the Raven R44 to Skydiving. Some physical and mental challenge has got to be next on my list, I thought. A friend had mentioned Mount Kilimanjaro years earlier but the whole idea of camping for 7 nights did not appeal to me in the least. As a casual hiker I had done most local hiking trails including the Table Mountain a number of times by 2014 and all of them had become rather mundane. On 10 July I sent an email to people whom I considered a good fit to travel with and take on such a mission. The list included my brother of course, we had planned to enter the #AmazingRace since varsity and we've been waiting for SABC3 to bring the local version eversince. Anyway, I started with almost 20 people on the invitation list, friends and acquaintances from across the world. A lot of enthusiasm was shown in the begi
