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.

September 30 – day 101

Posted on 30 September 2012 by Michiel

A day of nothing, pure luxury. In the morning a nice breakfast, the rest of the day we are sitting at the swimming pool. Dirk is doing some maintenance on the tford he finds out that a wishbone and a bracket for a filter are broken. This needs to be welded; Denys arranges that we can go to Tanga tomorrow morning. We meet 2 ladies from Germany Simone and Sandra they travel through Tanzania we exchange our experiences of the Serengeti, their next lodge is Bagamoyo.
We enjoy of our day doing nothing.
