Mauritanian Leg of Journey in Jeopardy
Recent terrorist activity in Mauritania has meant western governments are advising travelers to the country seriously rethink their plans.
The US has gone as far as withdrawing its volunteer aid workers, who've worked in Mauritania for over 40 years.
For us, this could prove a huge obstacle to the course of the Project Possession: not entering Mauritania means not entering Mali, which means not finishing in Timbuktu.
Right now we're concerned about these recent developments, but remain determined to complete the project.
Other routes are being looked into, and we remain hopeful things will change in Mauritania. But safety is always of key concern.
Besides, all it might mean is we go to Egypt instead.
