THE PROJECT
'Adventure isn't everything. It is the only thing!'
How about we sell the car, rent out the apartments, put our jobs on hold, take a break from the rat race and go off the beaten path? And while we’re at it, why don’t we just buy a Defender and head south to overland Africa? Guess what - it’s happening! Get ready for lots of mud, sand and the occasional meltdown!

THE ROUTE
'There's never an easy route to the things that matter.'
OVERLAND
Setting off in Munich for a 7-month road trip through Africa, driving more than 30.000km, crossing 33 borders, 5 timezones and 3 climate zones, always on the quest for the next big adventure.
We'll be at sea on a freight ferry from Monfalcone, Italy to Ashdod, Israel for 6 days and from there on we will continue southwest to cross into Egypt, where the Africa overland experience starts.
This route is a rough drafts and as the journey continues you'll be updated on the twists and turns.
THE VEHICLE
'The cars we drive say a lot about us.'
DEFENDER 110 TDI
Born in 1997, Bogdan has spent his youth in Bosnia. Being an adventurous kid he had already been on countless trips throughout his teen years. Growing up he tried to settle in to a calm life in the German countryside, releasing his inner child on the occasional off-road park excursion. But when he found himself drifting into a midlife crisis he couldn't resist the idea of testing his limits one more time.
