A charity tour for orphan children

Trudy and Dirk Regter from the Netherlands go on a world tour in a 1915 Ford Model T, covering all continents of the world. They are making this trip with the aim of raising money for orphans worldwide.

To date, they have driven 64,000 miles across 31 countries and have raised more than $45,000 spent on children's projects in Colombia and Bolivia. An earlier trip by Dirk in 2007 from Beijing to Paris in the Model T raised more than $140,000, of which 2 children's projects were built in Mongolia. The last part of their world tour,about 10,500 miles, takes them back home to the Netherlands via Asia. If you support the purpose of this journey, you can take ownership of some of these 10,500 miles of this final leg.

Buy your miles and thus contribute to a better future for orphans.

    Report 20th July
    Report by Trudy

    After breakfast we say good bye to Benno and Thecla. They go by bus from Ayacucho to Cusco, because we have not enough time to reach Cusco by car to get their flight to Holland.

      Thecla en Benno,
      Jullie zijn inmiddels thuis in een zomers Nederland. We hebben genoten van jullie prachtige reportages. Hopelijk is de hondenbeet goed genezen, Thecla, wat een beangstigende ervaring. Geniet weer van Nederland!
      Groeten, Karen en Jan

      Hoi reizigers.
      Wat een omstandigheden om in te reizen. Dit moet echt het zwaarste jaar zijn lijkt me. En dan de Ford, die is echt ongelooflijk net als jullie. Greetje en ik hebben groot ontzag voor Benno en Thecla die gewoon op de grond slapen in die kou. In de daktent kan je nog een beetje tegen elkaar aan nuffen ( zou ik doen tenminste) maar ieder in zijn eigen mummy ? Is Dirk nou de enigste die in de Ford rijdt? Kan hij nooit eens een dagje chillen. Dus hij moet mij maar een spoedcursusje geven on thé spot.
      Wat worden er trouwens een prachtige foto,s gemaakt. Mede dankzij het fotogenieke landschap lijkt me.
      Hopelijk raken jullie nu weer in de lagere regionen, we volgen alles.
      Liefs en groeten.
      Steef en Greetje
