The payment takes place on a dedicated secure server over two pages. The amount you decide is deducted from you credit card.



By the Great Wall in the desert. Asking people to make a donation for cancer research.


Really cold morning on the Great Wall. The body gets cold during the night, and it takes quite some motivation to wrap the sleeping bag AWAY from your body to start walking along the Great Wall…


Pretty windy and cold day. You can see the Great Wall in the background.


This girl was a charmer, and after I spoke to her and her friends in simple English for half an hour, she read from her book to me.


This charming man let me spend the night in his house which lay right by the Great Wall. He was 75 years old, and he is here making pig fodder for his 5 pigs. Those pigs had a good life, until it ended…


When I asked this charming old man if there was anywhere to stay for the night, he immediately offered me to spend the night at his home. It was only ten metres from the Great Wall. I was so grateful as my sleeping bag was damp from many nights in the small tent.


Liu Yanfei singing karaoke in Shenmu. This was a memorable day - at least the things I remember, because I lost in absolutely all the drinking games that day. I also had to take the next day off from walking.
