I am one of those who had to cancel. Down to the lack of communication and promises that where not kept. Its a vast amount of money to be spending when you earn very little money and takes the best part of 12 months to save. But its totally worth it cause I have made some great friends of the years. I really wanted to go next year. I love everything to do with the weather and have a real passion for learning more. I learnt so much from Paul and the team. I have memories from the past two trips that I have been on that I will never forget. But my frustration grew and grew. I am glad I am not alone in feeling this way. The only way I can realistically pay for a trips like this is with a payment plan which normally has been set up by July at the latest. It gives me piece of mind knowing that some of it has been paid for.
