Inventure founder Richard Leider has announced that he will not be leading an Inventure Expedition to Africa in 2013.  Given his current schedule and commitments, he has decided that a 2013 trip would not be feasible.

“It’s an important part of my life to get back to the rhythm each year in Africa, and it’s been a real privilege to lead so many people on these trips. For most it is a life-changing experience.  But given my current work commitments I didn’t feel I could devote the time to planning and leading a trip next year.”

When asked if he would be forgoing his annual trek for himself, Richard replied, “I will probably take some time for my own renewal experience.  I can reconnect to the rhythm for myself while not taking on the additional responsibility of leading a group, too.  We all benefit from ‘solo time’ to connect to our inner selves.”

Happy Solo Inventuring, Richard!
