Hi everyone!
I have created a unique trekking expedition (13 day itinerary) that starts from Dili and goes over the highest point in Timor-Leste to finish on the other side of the island. The purpose of the trek is to raise funds for an important Australian based charity called East Timor Hearts Fund. They basically send young, bright Timorese locals with heart problems back to Oz for critical surgery. Here is the link to the Trans-Timor Trek concept:

I am looking for participants to come with me on this epic journey that should take 10 days with camping in local communities. We employ local guides/porters to support the local economy. It is an application process as we need avid hikers with some trekking experience. I would be interested to hear if anyone has had any hiking experiences in Timor Leste?
Kind regards,
Mick
