Lafuma in Kilimanjaro


Sometime in early July 2008, a lovely couple, Steve and Emma both Lafuma members have pledged to fund raise for UNICEF to help the children in developing countries on their charity and fund climb to Mount Kilimanjaro (5,985m), Tanzania, Africa. They are back recently with a successful mission by not only raising more funds than what they have set earlier but also summitted to the one of the highest mountain in Africa! Total funds raised to date was 1,600 Pound!


Let's congratulate Steve and Emma for their challenging feats and their determination is definitely something we should learn from. Well with a total of six days expedition mission (from 21/7/08 to 26/7/08) to summit the gigantic mountain, the story from both of them is well worthwhile to read. For those who intend to summit this African highest peak, you should not miss this valuable tips from this couple. Read their tales at http://journals.worldnomads.com/steve_and_emma/

Recreational forest located in Selayang, Selangor area may still be alien in the Klang Valley society. Just a few meters from the Gombak Police Station Headquarters is on the backdrop of this jungle forest. Starting from the Lafuma boutique in Bangsar, our 7-way recreational vehicle shop in Jalan Telawi climbs the MPV to the jungle. Early morning rainstorm began to diminish the number of entries in the last minute. Our fate is quite good, in Selayang not only does not rain but the sun begins to shine. Our MPV is down the road for this jungle past the settlement of the Orang Asli to the end of the paved road. As soon as it comes down from the vehicle, we straighten the veins and begin to warm up after the ice-breaking session. The star...
