On July 9, 2005, Sebastian Burger began a trip with blind passengers on a Hase Pino tandem from Germany to Singapore. He had to arrive in Singapore in March of 2006 in order to reach the ship he booked. |
Blind people were empowered to take part in the sporting endeavor and accomplish every meter to Singapore using their own strength. Based on experience, this form of independent travel with tents and cookers can be very fulfilling. It is a unique experience of freedom. The idea was that this feeling of independence should also be experienced by the blind. Between July 2005 and March 2006, the group traversed the following countries: Germany, Austria, Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria, Turkey, Iran, India, Bangladesh, Myanmar, Thailand, Malaysia, and Singapore. |
In 225 days, 14,300 km (8,900 miles) were traveled. There was even enough time for getting to know the countries and their people along the way. |
