It takes courage to care for a better world! Meeting with Marek Kamiński before his No Trace Expedition on Monday in Olivia!
Marek Kamiński conquered both poles of the Earth and broke stereotypes, achieving it again with a disabled boy, he walked 4 thousand kilometers along the Trail of St. Mary. Jakuba, and now he is setting off from Gdańsk, with Olivia Business Centre, on another expedition, which will prove that it is possible to travel consciously and reach the most inaccessible corners of the world without leaving negative traces in the natural environment.
Marek Kamiński is one of the most popular Polish travelers, who has been traveling the world for years to change people’s attitudes and prove that limitations are primarily in our minds. Kamiński’s new project ” No Trace Expedition” focuses on the popularization of broadly understood electromobility. The expedition is to prove and make the public aware that an electric car, designed for cities, can travel long and difficult distances, drive off-road and at the same time have a positive impact on the environment, protecting it from harmful traces of human activity. The motto of the expedition is: ” Caring for a better world requires courage” – courage to change your habits, courage to reach for new technologies, courage to step out of your comfort zone, courage to do things that are still not very popular.
– No Trace Expedition is an electric car journey through the Kaliningrad Oblast, Lithuania, Latvia, Russia and Siberia, Mongolia, China and South Korea, all the way to Japan. It will be a journey through the two poles of the modern world, which, despite being so close to each other, differ in every respect – says Kamiński. ” The whole way of conducting the expedition, i.e. nutrition, clothes, power, activities, will be based on innovative technologies that save nature.
Kamiński’s means of transport will be the Nissan LEAF electric car , which many people associate mainly with short, urban trips. However, Kamiński wants to show that it is possible to travel the world using modern technologies while taking care of the natural environment.
“I hope that the expedition will inspire many people to live a sustainable, responsible lifestyle, including conscious travel. I would like to combine this idea with an innovative approach: Leave Trail, which is about leaving a mark, but not in nature, but in people’s minds. – adds Marek Kamiński.
Start of the expedition
The traveller will set off from Gdańsk on 29 May to Kaliningrad, from which he had travelled to the opposite, western part of Europe – to Santiago de Compostela.
“I am glad that so many people understand how important it is to spread the idea of conscious travel in the spirit of No Trace. Without the great awareness of this problem and the support of companies such as Nissan, PKN Orlen and Invena S.A., it would have been impossible – sums up Marek Kamiński.
A press meeting preceding this unique expedition takes place
May 28 at 12:00 in Olivia Business Centre, where the Marek Kamiński Foundation has its headquarters.
An event open to the residents of the Tri-City with Marek Kamiński starts
the same at 14:00 on the patio of the Olivia business center.
No Trace Expedition
Marek Kamiński’s No Trace Expedition project will be implemented in May-July 2018. Kamiński will travel approximately. 13 thousand kilometers in an electric car. The whole way of conducting the expedition, i.e. nutrition, clothes, power, activities, was based on innovative technologies that save nature. The ideas and values of the project will be manifested through the use of: ecological food packaging, as well as organic food itself, water from a bottle with a filter, power supply in the form of solar-charged batteries, minimalist sets of clothes – nanoclothes that do not absorb odors, shoes constructed with ecology in mind, and a car that is a base for exploring the world, and at the same time containing ecological equipment for this exploration (e.g. a kayak made of cardboard, bicycle).
Through the No Trace Expedition project, Marek Kamiński wants to create a new standard of travel in accordance with the principles of nature, draw attention to the importance of development and education in the field of travel. Through his actions, the traveler wants to promote ecological, sustainable values and inspire more people to do impossible things.
It is an expedition supported by conscious institutions for which Corporate Social Responsibility is important, and their mission, as well as the goal of the expedition, is to take care of the natural environment and use new technologies in the service of nature.
Strategic partners of the project: Nissan, PKN Orlen, INVENA S.A.
