Pay Your Way

Your trip may feel like a long way off, but your journey begins right now. A self-funded expedition is about more than booking a seat on a plane, it’s about putting you in the driving seat so that you develop skills for life; managing money, record keeping, self-motivation, goal setting and target achievement.

Universities and employers respect the commitment and entrepreneurship that a young person demonstrates in this phase. For these reasons we encourage our participants to self-fund the majority, or if not, the entirety of the amount. Every family's financial situation is different so self funding is a way to enable every young people to experience the adventure of a lifetime!

There are so many ways to fund your expedition, and most participants plan their own individual initiatives as well as activities with their team members.

Perhaps you're creative and have a great craft idea you could sell, maybe you’re a real foodie and can pitch an idea to a local restaurant as a lucrative partnership – it might be daunting to know where to start but we have loads of resources to help you along the way.
