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 27 June

    8:30 oil level and go with that banana! 

    The roads are quiet and beautiful, we try to buy bread along the way, but they don’t have it anywhere.  

    During a lunch stop, Trudy hands out melon to people and we are offered 2 fresh loaves of bread, what luck!!  leerrrrr. 

    We stop and have a cup of coffee at the remains of a fort from 300 before Crhistus, there is little left, but the view is beautiful. 

    We stop at a Guesthouse, which doesn’t look like much from the outside, but behind it is a mega building, with large rooms and a canteen. 

    There is a postcard with greetings from Monickendam… haha  

    Drove 125 km today and dropped to 2800 meters, which feels more relaxed than at altitude.
