Africa-Press – Namibia. <\/strong><\/span>Ray Sasman\u2019s biggest joy is starting her trek across Namibia every morning at sunrise, the smell in the air and the feel around her, and \u201cjust going for it\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m loving it, and I\u2019m looking forward to the rest of the way,\u201d she said enthusiastically as she makes her way to the Kazangula Border Post in the Zambezi region.<\/p>\n

Sasman, a 52-year-old former teacher, set off from the Noordoewer Border Post in the \/\/Kharas region on 1 May 2024 on a 2 200km trek to the Kazangula Border Post.<\/p>\n

The plan is to complete the walk in three months.<\/p>\n

Her goal is to raise awareness of the need for youth empowerment \u2013 and at the same time raise funds for an envisaged youth centre in Walvis Bay under the banner \u2018Walk With Me\u2019.<\/p>\n

The campaign encourages people to join her in any way they can \u2013 through thoughts, prayers, messages or joining her on the walk.<\/p>\n

Sasman embarked on this incredible solo trek across Namibia, driven by the need in public schools she witnessed as a teacher.<\/p>\n

Growing up during apartheid, she said she found solace in youth camps.<\/p>\n

\u201cI had a safe haven to go to, and that has instilled in me a sense of adventure because we had a lot of outdoor activities, a lot of youth camps where I could connect with other children my age and just experience Namibia,\u201d she noted.<\/p>\n

As she heads north-east, she visits schools to share her journey and motivate learners to do well in school to create better lives for themselves, their families, communities and country.<\/p>\n

On Monday, she visited two schools in Rehoboth \u2013 the Dr Lemmer High School and the Rehoboth Primary School.<\/p>\n

Several of those learners then accompanied her out of their town early on Wednesday morning as she headed to the capital city.<\/p>\n

Throughout her journey thus far, Sasman has been met with overwhelming support from the Namibian community, sending her messages from far and wide.<\/p>\n

\u201cI have people stopping their own journeys to chat with me, ask what I\u2019m doing, to offer water or snacks. One guy even offered me credit for my phone, which was amazing, as well as lodges opening up their doors to me, people opening up their homes, and the poorest of the poor giving me permission to pitch my tent next to their little shacks. And I\u2019ve been feeling so safe and in awe that Namibia is uniting like this in support of this walk.\u201d<\/p>\n

Earlier this week, she also had the pleasure of sharing a picnic with the \u2018Gondwana Girls\u2019 by the side of the road, describing it as an amazing treat.<\/p>\n

Her journey is not just about walking. It is about connecting with people, and inspiring them to join her \u2013 whether physically or in spirit.<\/p>\n

Asked what her family said of her plans, she said they were \u201cshocked\u201d, and tried to discourage her from doing it.<\/p>\n

\u201cI remember my one sister distinctly saying that maybe I should only do it next year, and plan better for it. But I decided no, this is what I would like to do, and I want to do it now.\u201d<\/p>\n

Sasman does not have a support vehicle, and regards herself as fortunate to have an amazing remote support team behind her, driven by her sister Joy Sasman and three friends, who check in with her every day.<\/p>\n

They are Karin Oosthuizen, Marina Kluge and Buffy Tebbit, whom she sends her location pin, and they track her on the way to see where she is constantly \u2013 and give her support if she needs it.<\/p>\n

\u201cI have Aleisha Hammerslaght, who is taking care of my social media \u2013 and it takes a big load off me because I just forward the stuff to her, and she makes sure it gets onto Instagram and Facebook. I have to say she\u2019s doing a fabulous job of it.\u201d<\/p>\n

In terms of how she handles the cold weather which has enveloped Namibia, Sasman said her sleeping bag can go up to -15\u00b0, and she has a down jacket to keep her warm.<\/p>\n

Her voyage is a testament to her physical and mental resilience.<\/p>\n

She averages 30 kilometres a day, despite challenges like blisters brought on when she decided to carry her provisions on her back, instead of continuing with her troublesome cart, aptly named Donkey, with whom she could manage only about 20km per day.<\/p>\n

To keep her energy levels high, her diet includes Jelly Babies gummy sweets, energy bars, nuts, mango strips and gallons of electrolytes.<\/p>\n

With three pairs of shoes remaining, and a minimalist approach to packing, Sasman follows the B1 road for its logistical advantages.<\/p>\n

Her nights are often spent in the hospitality of family and strangers, with only three nights so far requiring her to pitch her tent by the roadside.<\/p>\n

Looking ahead, her journey includes a challenging stretch through the Bwabwata National Park in the Zambezi region, for which she needs special permission from the police.<\/p>\n

\u201cBy the sounds of it, the police will send me with an escort and park rangers. I\u2019m not sure if it\u2019s on foot, or if they will drive me through it.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve spoken to Elago Nantana, who has done the walk in 2022, and he said \u2018no, they drove him\u2019.<\/p>\n

If I\u2019m not able to walk it, well, then I will have to handle it in whichever way possible to make sure that I get through it.\u201d<\/p>\n

Sasman is an adrenaline junky, who has peaked the three highest mountains in Africa: Kilimanjaro, Mount Kenya and Mount Meru, and has hiked the Fish River Canyon nine times.<\/p>\n

She has also done some abseiling and paragliding.<\/p>\n

\u201cMentally, I need to be very strong. Usually, when I hit the 15km mark, that\u2019s usually the time I have to dig deep and talk to myself constantly.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve got this mantra going through my head: \u2018I am strong, I\u2019m fit, I can do it, I\u2019m worthy, and I\u2019m powerful\u2019.<\/p>\n

You know, motivational things that I have to keep on telling myself over and over again just to keep going.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere are days that I feel I literally cannot go another step, but then I eat an energy bar, or I will have some of my gummy sweets and some of my rehydrate, and then I just keep going.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo, for me, it\u2019s literally just, no matter what, just put one foot in front of the other until you reach your destination for the day.\u201d<\/p>\n

Sasman\u2019s walk through Namibia is more than a physical journey.<\/p>\n

It is a powerful message of unity, resilience and hope for the future of Namibian youth.<\/p>\n
