About
I. THE EXPEDITION
On 14th December 2008, Marco Löchner will begin a cycling expedition from Germany to Vietnam. He will travel over 40,000km through Europe and Asia, visiting more than 30 countries on his journey.
II. THE MISSION
This journey is not just about athletic limits. Marco is in search of different approaches to life and opinions about contemporary issues. He will conduct personal interviews throughout his journey, exploring the diversity of cultures.
Marcobegan a successful career in international risk management. But half a year ago he decided to stop his current way of life in order to explore different approaches to life and the global reaction of the current economic crisis.
IV. STATUS QUO
There is already widespread support for Marco, with a fan base extending from the USAtoChina. He has set up a project team of 9 young persons from Germany and England who manage this project. To their international network of project supporters belong also project musicians, who provide inspirational music to champion the spirit of this project.
With 3 weeks to go, Marco is currently making the final preparations for the expedition and is working on the enhancement of the project mission. He announced in his last speech to spread the worldly wisdoms and to publish the alternative approaches to life he collects along the way.
