tallest peak on six continents along the way. Eruc will row, bike, walk, and climb the world

But they can have great adventures and learn a lot along the way.

Eruc has already faced some disappointments and challenges. For example, because he has to
row about 10 hours a day, he brought along an MP3 player to listen to music, audiobooks, and
study Spanish to pass the time. Unfortunately, the nearly daily tropical rain for several months
has forced him to keep his player packed away where it’s safe and dry.

Not only that, but wind and waves keep pushing him westward when he wants to go south
toward the Solomon Islands. Unlike big ships with powerful engines, his rowboat and arm
power are no match for the winds. Fortunately, Eruc has a dry little cabin to crawl into when
the daily rowing is done. He can use his little palm computer to connect to the Internet by
way of a satellite phone. “For fun, I do emails and phone calls, read, and write in my journal
a lot,” he says.

Protein bars give him energy, and he boils water to heat freeze-dried beef on a one-burner
stove. A solar-powered machine removes salt from ocean water so he can drink it, but only
when the sun shines.

He’s not bothered by the hard work or even being blown the wrong direction. Eruc sees the
world as a laboratory where there is much to learn. For example, when his trip takes him
across land, he enjoys meeting people – especially children. He has already visited dozens of
schools and shared his story.
