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.

Key days in Almaty

This morning Dirk discovered that spring leaves were torn. We call Janat, from Almaty, whom we met in Mongolia, for help. He comes and helps tremendously.

Last night Ger and Wim arrived and brought the new control rod, which was specially made for us.

First the men start working with the feather package. They find spring leaves that they can use and make them to size with the help of a friend of Janat.
