A representative caught up with and interviewed Nick Baggarly, a Fellow of the Royal Geographical Society. Nick is the executive director and expedition leader for Drive Around the World, and is known for his ability to organize ambitious team efforts to achieve meaningful objectives. A successful Silicon Valley quality engineer, Nick took a sabbatical from Network Associates in 1997 to lead an expedition on an 8,000-mile drive through Mexico, Belize, and Guatemala. His team delivered medical supplies to remote villages for Rivers of the World, an international aid organization.
Drive Around the World was founded with the goal of using these expeditions to promote cross-border understanding and goodwill as well as to raise funds for charitable causes. In 1999, the Drive Around the World team completed LATITUDE, a 16,000-mile expedition through 16 countries, driving from Beijing to San Francisco. During the journey, the expedition worked with teachers throughout California to interact with middle school students.
While Nick's charitable work has always been a labor of love, the LONGITUDE expedition had special purpose for him because at the age of 35 his sister was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease.
