X -TREME TRAVELS invites you to participate in the most amazing challenge of all times NOW

“Around the World in Ten Jumps!”

THE WANDUNGUIS TEAM The Wandunguis Team starting point

READY… …STEADY… GO!!! IS IT CLEAR? OK THEN…

JUMP 1 From your starting point in ETP Clot, jump to the valley that is the birth place of the only river in Catalunya flowing towards the Atlantic Ocean.

JUMP 2 From this place, jump to the center of the largest island in the world (that is NOT a continent!)

JUMP 3 Nice jump! Now, go to a salted sea which is considered to be the lowest spot on earth! There aren’t any fishes in it, are they?

JUMP 4 There is a country on the roof of the world. Go to its capital and don’t forget the scarf! It’s quite cold up there!

JUMP 5 What is the shortest way to cross from Asia to the United States? Meet you there!

JUMP 6 Great! Now, it’s time to play the pirate! Have you ever heard about the island where buccaneers took shelter? Be careful! A lot of islands have a similar name, but there is only ONE safe place for us! Maybe this map can help you! Hurry up!

JUMP 7 And talking about pirates: the famous Sir Francis Drake discovered a passage between two oceans that still has his name. Would you jump to there?

JUMP 8 To the south of Drake Passage you can find a group of islands named after a Scottish archipelago which is our next meeting point. Can you jump to its capital?

JUMP 9 Well done! Now meet you in the center of a great lake, source of the longest river in the world. Jump now!

JUMP 10 Brilliant! Now you are about to face your very last jump in this challenge! This time you can CHOOSE YOUR DESTINATION, but mind this three conditions: You MUST move to another continent. You MUST jump to a city. You CAN’T repeat any place you have already been before!

FINAL JUMP!! GREAT WORK! You have become professional jumpers! And now, can you come back to ETP Clot to receive an ovation? We are waiting for you!
