Cycling Singapore to Queenstown (New Zealand)
Donation protected
Honestly, it feels a bit cheeky asking for money from people for a reason that doesn't really have any benefit to them. But so many people have tried convincing me to do this to help take pressure off on the money side of things, so I'm giving it a go. Honestly, all I'm thinking about now is accommodation, food, bike maintenance if needed and visas. I plan to use any money raised on accommodation first and foremost, which would be a HUGE weight lifted. Anything extra will be put towards visas/bicycle maintenance. Any kind of donation would be incredibly appreciated, and I will do my best to post regular updates on my journey along the way. Check out my Instagram & Facebook page to follow my trip!

ADVENTURE BACKGROUND INFO...
Start Date: 30/01/19
End Date: Whenever I reach Hong Kong **END LOCATION CHANGED TO QUEENSTOWN, NZ** (See bottom of page)
A totally random idea from someone who has never had a cycling trip, or any form of connection to cycling, before this. The adventure started in Singapore, where I cycled from there, into Malaysia and all the way up through the country until crossing into Thailand and making my way to Phuket. (Roughly 2000km)
Phuket is where I have lived for a year and a half, and began work again as a Personal Trainer. But now I have managed to save (Definitely NOT enough) money, done everything there is to do and heading off on the bicycle again to eventually get myself to Hong Kong. (Roughly 6000km)
In order for me to get there I will be cycling all up through Thailand to Chiang Mai then heading East to take myself through Laos, Vietnam, China and all through the South of China until reaching the nearest point on the mainland to Hong Kong. At that point I'll annoyingly have to take a short ferry over. But I've got a while until that point, so who knows, there may even be a bike float attachment invented by then!
I'm cycling solo, I have no real plan, I am currently not raising money for anything, I am not sponsored, I am by no means a cyclist, I have have MINIMAL amounts of money and I'm no longer working.
Wish me luck!
** IMPORTANT TRIP UPDATE- 17/03/19 **
After a lot of hassle, ending in the refusal of my visa to China, meaning therefore that I was unable to pass through the border from Vietnam to China and cycle through the mainland down to Hong Kong, I decided to change things up a bit. At this point I can basically get as far as Vietnam. So, I will get myself there and then fly out to New Zealand and cycle from the North (Auckland) to the South (Queenstown) which will be my new end destination... As it stands!
