The swim is to commemorate the Tunisian Revolution and is a swim for Peace. The event we are joining is only a very small part of the total swim of 1400kms along the entire coastline. It is, in a small way, an opportunity to show respect for the fundamental changes that have taken place across many countries.
For info on the Arab Spring there are many sites however here is one that is more appropriate about Tunisia
