Hi everyone!

Aaron and I live in Springdale Arkansas. I have a 21 Jeep Wrangler. I love to get out in the National Forest and explore. Looking forward to meeting some folks in the local area that share an interest in getting out to explore.

Hello all!
My name is Travis, and I'm getting back into the camping/off-roading scene again! My wife and I recently moved to the Dallas area for work and both agree that if we have to be stuck in the city then we need a way to get out into the wilds. I'll be ordering a Gladiator rubicon once our house sells, and from there I'll jumping into the off road game with both feet! Hopefully I'll see some of you on the trails!

Meet Jabari, this is my 2016 Toyota Fortuner 2.8 GTD-6 4x4. She's set up for overlanding Africa, but we are constantly tweaking and changing the set up!

_C4A4438.jpg

I'm technically based out of Johannesburg South Africa, but I sold my house pre covid, and other than occasionally staying with family, we are permanently on the road.

I'm very experienced in Southern Africa, have a little bit of experience in East/Central and Sahel, but I know it is a small pond in the big picture of overlanding. Here to learn and maybe lend some advice if anyone is looking to come to this part of the world!

Edit: Got too excited to post. Also wanted to say my background is in photography and film making, and please check out my channel over at www.youtube.com/c/timhulme :)
