Donna Cuthbert found it hard to make the initial jump to start traveling the way she really wanted. When she made the decision it was based on a basic trust that humanity is predominantly good natured. With that frame of mind she set out on many adventures that would test her mentally, physically and emotionally. From hitchhiking around Africa, riding horses across Mongolia to bicycling to South American from California. She was wonderful to talk to because she's just a ordinary girl from London. Enjoy!

Brian Friedricks doesn't fear death or prison because he has been to prison twice and died in a car accident once. He smuggled marijuana into the U.S. from Mexico for years.
