     Erden Eruc has been rowing across the Pacific Ocean (太平洋) in a rowboat since he left California on
July 10, 2007. He has been heading for Australia with only birds, fish, and sharks ever since. 
     Crossing the Pacific is only part of his journey. Eruc has decided to go all the way around the world using
his own energy. He will row, bike, walk, and climb the world without help from any motors (發(fā)動機) at all.
His plan includes climbing the tallest peak on six of the continents (洲) along the way.

Australia.
     When his trip around the world takes him across land, he enjoys meeting people-especially children. He
has already visited many schools and shared his story.
     Eruc encourages all kids to set their eyes on a goal and not give up. He says, "With goals, we will make
progress, and we will be farther along than when we started, even if we don't get to some goals. Tnat's called
life!"
