  1. Sailing is a life-time journay Becoming friend of time, living here and now This makes me think one truth: The aim is actually the end, death, Since what really matters is the journay itself Bringing a message of peace and love around the world Louis - Las Palmas, February 2006

  2. Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, 6th of February 2006 Diary: Today, at 10am, the association “Los Correos de la Mar” (Sea Couriers) was officially born within the Italian Council in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria. Today I am glad to announce that the Antartica Project has achieved its first great goal Davide

  4. The birth of “Sea Couriers” at Canary Islands represents the first succesfull achievement of the Antartica Project Other volunteers from France, Germany, Spain, Italy, Brasil and Costa Rica are joining this initiative So far we have already ran dozens of aid expeditions and set up cooperation activities in different countires: Senegal, Gambia, Green Cape, Brasil, Panama, Costa Rica, Martinica…

The first collecting and forwarding hub has been set up at Las Palmas, the last crossroads of the great oceanic highways We are actively working on four main projects fostering suistainable develpment in Senegal and Brasil From next November Las Palmas will host nearly 200 sailing boats, all potential sea couriers Our volunteers are presently undertaking PR networking actions in order to actract new affiliations and increase the number of aid expeditions on the African and American routes

  7. Sea courier Andrea Marini at Naso Blu in Bambey - Senegal

  8. “Sea Couriers” initiative was born thanks to the common will of some sailors to make their journey a new way of bringing solidarity along their routes Sailors who sail for leisure, sport and work An association of people who have often decided to sail for long period of time and had the possibility to observe the places visited along their journey in a more thinkful way

  9. Sea courier Doreen from Vela Bianca at Zinguinchor- Senegal

  10. The long sailing route allows to observe various human realities All thise realities are made of great human richness, even when affected by a huge material and cultural poverty. Many people living in such realities are strongly committed to progress regardless the lack of means Sea Couriers was born on top of this idea: many people existe who are willing to improve their life standards and social conditions but they often do not have the means to do it

  11. Sea courier Riccardo di Almudena at P.to Lindo - Panama

  12. To these goodwill people we try to offer a new mean to improve their life: “sailing” energies An information network allowing to identify needs, social projects and whatever situation where we can sail on the waves of solidarity An information network allowing our little great help to reach directly the hands of those who need it thanks to sailors heading to various destinations

  13. The Sea Couriers arrive in Brasil

  14. In a short period of time our initiative has gained a wide consensus and new affilitations This is a positive sign which let uas believe that our idea will be successful Morevoer, from November a “sodalrity” Trade-Wind wil blow our sails Il Gindungo verso il Brasile

  15. In Roçina – Pelouriño, Salvador de Bahia

  16. Sailing on the waves of solidarity ! No dream exists which cannot come true! Nobody is so poor not to help the others as nobody is so rich not to need others’ help
