Kayaking solo is something that is quite exciting and heady as you need to have all your wits about you and also the endurance to counter the winds and the waves. This is what we have been reporting that Hayley Shepard had wanted to do, kayaking solo around the South Georgia Island. Now that three weeks have passed, it seems that Hayley is being forced to abandon her kayaking solo expedition, and that is because of the elements more than anything else. The conditions have been much less than charitable towards here as she had to face a lot of strong and gale like winds, and also less than favorable logistics which seem to have all ganged up on poor Hayley.

This is why Hayley has had to leave her current kayaking solo expedition and head towards home, in the hope of keeping body and soul together. But knowing Hayley, she would not be taking this as a failure or something to be ashamed about. She has tried her best to come up to all the challenges and situations thrown in her face by the elements. This is why her effort should be lauded as kayaking solo is no mean task given the kind of elements and challenges that need to be faced.
