Viva con Agua

Hitchhiking race for drinking water 2010

Hey and Howdi Casa!
I would like to share a project with all you guys on which me and some friends have been working on for the last three years constantly.
Since 2008 we're organizing a hitchhiking race for a drinkwater organisation called Viva con Agua from Hamburg. In 2008 and 2009 the destinations have been Zaragoza and Dubrovnik, this year the route will lead us to Vama Veche in Romania!

In summer 2009 34 people organized in 14 teams hitchhiked from Kiel [Northern Germany] to Dubrovnik [Southern Croatia]. The 2300km long trip was a 6-stage hitchhike race. Apart from the obvious fun of hitchhiking, it was meant to promote the Hamburg-based drinkwater initiative "Viva con Agua de Sankt Pauli" which drills wells in places where clean potable water is not an easily available resource.
