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.

    October 13th – Day 114

    Posted on 13 October 2012 by Rozemarijn

    Saturday 13 october

    After 2 days of working on the car, we hit the road again!

    About 140km to go.

    It’s a project to get the Land Rover filled with all the stuff. But after sending the website updates with the satellite modem, and Trudy checking the route we’re moving!

    We have a very nice view when riding from upwards to downwards

    At Makambako Trudy spotted a supermarket, the first sinceSudan, she’s really happy.

    For lunch we have to search for some shade, it’s not easy but in the end we find some.

    On the road we see a lot of houses and farms, they are different than the ones inFriesland.

    Around 16:00 we find the Hospital that is also part of the mission, and we ask for a sleeping place,Jacksonbrings us to a guesthouse.

    The first price of the owner is 15.000 each. After some talking Dirks makes the price 4.000 each. Good job Dirk! We don’t want to pay for the cat’s fiddle.

    There is no kitchen in the Guesthouse but we can use the ‘terras’ and the ‘lobby’ for cooking and eating.
