Member Introductions *NEW MEMBERS INTRODUCE YOURSELF*

[Roy & Kristin Zirpoli]

Hi Guys,
I am a new member. I would like to introduce myself.
I am a Belgian. I am currently building my new car in Cape Town, South Africa.
I will be traveling around Africa for a year, then six months in South America and finally six months in Central Asia.
Actually, I have no real plan. I will just go with the flow and see where it leads me.

My goal is to get tips from overlanders who have done what I am about to do. If you know an amazing camp, fantastic scenery or a place to avoid, please let me know.
I am also happy to drive along with anyone friendly for a few days or a week.

My rig: 2019 Toyota Land Cruiser 79
Current location: Cape Town, South Africa
Experience: Experienced

Oh I do hope you share pictures of your adventures from your trips! I am so envious! I want to travel the world by vehicle! Welcome!

Hello, my name is Alan and I've been an overlanding enthusiast for some time, but just recently getting back into it. Took my three sons across the Mojave last month in my 2006 LR3 and 1992 Range Rover Classic and now I'm looking forward to our next adventure. Follow Overland Bound on Youtube and decided it was time to participate.

Welcome and awesome rig choice!

Hello everyone.
I'm just getting started and I'm actually looking for an overlanding trailer with RTT ($10,000 and under) which is why I'm joining. So if anyone has any leads or you wanna get some cash for your trailer, drop me a line.
I'm in NM in the 4 corners area and willing to meet anyone within a 14 hour drive for a trailer.
I have a 2018 Tacoma Off Road with a Snugtop shell, and hope to do some suspension and tire upgrades in a year or 2 to raise it up a few inches and get a little more clearance.
Hers a few pics of the truck now.
Thanks.

Hello,

No Picture of my vehicle yet. It's a 2000 Jeep WJ. Stock height with a roof rack for our spare and auxillary lights.

I'm in Eastern Washington. I would say intermediate outdoorsman but very new to overlanding and offroad camping with a vehicle.

Hello everyone, my name is Jesus,
I am currently located in Northern Italy. I have a 2017 Toyota Tacoma Off-Road. I am new to overlanding. I wasn't really sure which way I was going to go on my truck build but decided this was best for what I plan on doing with it. Still have a lot to do to it but here is the start.
