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.

    Report 29 June

    Posted on 29 June 2024 by DirkJan

    By DJ and Danny

    Today is Dirk and Trudy’s wedding anniversary: ​​52 years, so that’s worth celebrating! 
    To mark this occasion, we are taking a nice ride there today 😀 

    On the way we buy a delicious ice cream and Trudy makes pastries with coffee.  

    Danny has been looking for slippers for days, and they are actually on the side of the road, unfortunately no left and right set… 

    After a long drive with 1 road closure, we ask for a place to sleep and we are taken somewhere by a man who rides along, 30 km of bumping.  

    They have no food, but they do have a kitchenette, brown water comes out of the tap and they still have to thoroughly clean the toilet.  

    According to Danny, people are murdered here at night, cut up in the toilet and burned in the hole next to the hotel… he watches too many movies that boy 😀.  

    Danny and Trudy cook dinner and we sleep peacefully… 173km, 1800m. He’s doing great!!!  

    We are in Vanj
