Day 27 ..
She studies Maths and Music at RHUL (Royal Holloway University of London) and is involved in all the music, drama and maths scenes so plenty of people saw her barefoot! Which is AMAZING!!
She is still collecting so haven't had the final total of the cash donations from her but it's over £100 which is awesome!! :D
Natalia is on her second day barefoot and wishes she started from Day 1!! She believes, possibly more passionately than myself, the fact that 1.4 billion people are living in extreme poverty is completely wrong and she has taken her shoes off to make people more aware of this!
Along the way, she has taken some great barefoot photos! One which I LOVE from today is of Steve, a fundraiser from the Red Cross. After she signed up to the Red Cross, he too took his shoes of in solidarity! It's now spreading further across Bristol! :D Today she discovered how AMAZING painted lines on the road and leaves are to walk on, us barefooters know exactly what she's talking about!!
She has been crucial, among others, in aiding my understanding of the charity sector, international development and the importance of helping the developing countries suffering from poverty, through the Kenyan Orphan Project. Without the experiences I've had volunteering with KOP I wouldn't be the person I am today.

I've never really thought we had a path chosen for us in life, but only because I never knew what it was. I now feel that my destiny is to work in international development, help others in the fight against poverty and really do something positive every day of my life. I can't wait to begin on this adventure. BUT until then I am learning lots and fundraising (hopefully lots!) for KOP.
Please help me get one step closer to fulfilling my dream of ending poverty by donating anything small. If you already have or really can't (which I understand) then why don't you go barefoot for a day or half a day to feel what it's like!? IF that doesn't appeal to you then I just ask you to share No Shoes November with your friends, family, colleagues, neighbours and even people you don't like, great conversation starter ;)
I was on 96.4 fm the wave radio station early this morning and I will be on Swansea Sound tomorrow morning, for all you early South West Wales radio listeners, tune in!
