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 25 June

    Posted on 25 June 2024 by DirkJan

    By DJ and Danny

    This morning a fancy breakfast at the Borat hotel, cleaning the windows of the Landrover and go! 
    Into the mountains. 

    We go higher and higher up to 4200 meters and not just a peak but for hours on end, it is also getting cold so we put on the Unox hat! 

    It’s a beautiful road, but the road sucks… All holes, grooves, washboards, bumps, potholes, but it’s fun! 
    A desolate area, truly incredible. Empty.   

    We drove for a long time and at a house we asked if we could sleep there and that was allowed.  

    We get food and Trudy and Dirk sleep in the living room next to the stove and Danny and DJ in the roof tent.  

    Just get rid of the smoke coming from the shit-fueled stove pipe,

    4200m high 191km

      Wat een bijzondere dag met grote temperatuur- en hoogteverschillen.
      Een nauwelijks begaanbare, maar mooie weg.
      Desolaat gebied. Maar wanneer jullie dan toch een huisje tegenkomen, mogen jullie je welkom voelen om mee te eten en te slapen!!
      Dat is toch echt geweldig!!
