January 19, 2018 One of the downsides – among many – of a disputed territory such as Western Sahara, is that some areas can be full of landmines. In some parts of this region it’s not advised to go off-road, which is why the official rally stage was getting us directly down to Dakhla … Read more
January 18, 2018 Our goal for the day was Laayoune, the Capital of Western Sahara, about 360 miles from Icht. After quickly washing the mud off of the windscreens, we left the hotel, driving west towards Plage Blanche. The Plage Blanche is at least a 40-mile long white sand beach tucked between the Atlantic … Read more
January 17, 2018 I’ve done some research around the definition of ‘off-roading’ or ‘off-road driving’, and there is a debate on where can you draw a line between on-road and off-road. I don’t think we need to necessarily define them and put them in their own box, because some non-paved roads (i.e. roads that … Read more
January 16, 2018 Today’s stage was Midelt to Ouarzazate. We started very early, at around 6.30am, and headed for the off-road tracks and river beds. The previous day’s drive was really nothing compared to this one. Sharp rocks on the tracks, snow, huge drops, sunshine and nearly dry riverbeds made the first half of … Read more
January 15, 2018 Great sleep on the ferry, during which we arrived in… Spain. Melilla is still Spain so we had the border crossing in front of us. We expected it to be chaotic – and it certainly was. Hustlers and ‘Hello, my friend’-type helpers approached people constantly while we waited in line for … Read more
January 14, 2018 After a great, long sleep in the outskirts of Munich the previous night, we felt so relaxed (well, Evelin did – I crashed around 3.00am) that we carried on driving overnight, only stopping for a couple of hours sleep in one of the rest areas on the Spanish motorway just after … Read more
January 13, 2018: Not much happened on this day other than trying to get as close to Almeria, Spain, where our ferry left from, as possible. Motorway miles, just to get to the end of the continent. Let’s talk about the Rally itself then. So what is the Budapest-Bamako Rally? The short answer: a great … Read more
January 12, 2018 Start date! The long awaited start date of the Budapest-Bamako Rally had actually arrived. It was quite a long wait, with preparations taking place over the previous weeks and even months. A trip to Africa was on our list for quite a while but never been to that continent, we decided … Read more
February 18, 2018 The first blog entry of our blog that is not called blog. We are calling it: Our Notes. At first we didn’t want to have a blog or journal section on the site, but we feel that there is so much happening in our overlanding life that it would be a … Read more
Today we are reviewing two of the most popular utility winches on the market. They are widely used on trailers, truckbeds, hitch mounts. While they offer very similar features, there are some aspects that will help you decide which one to buy. They are arguably among the best utility winches out there. Superwinch LT2000 12V Utility … Read more
When camping or overlanding for a few days, you can opt for the luxury of a 12V fridge-freezer. However, not everyone would prefer that due to the power and portability factors. That is where coolers play a major role, especially coolers like the Yeti Tundra 35 vs 45 vs 50. It is an excellent choice … Read more
As overlanders and off-roaders look for more remote places to discover and more trails to conquer, winches have evolved over time to become an important tool that is used from rig to rig. Primarily designed for 4×4’s and pickups, there are many types of winches to choose from with early three dozen winches available on … Read more
Nobody wants to go camping or overlanding only to see that within a day all his/her food has gone bad while out hiking, thanks to a faulty or non-quality cooler. There are several different types and brands of coolers out there. With the large selection of coolers in the market, you need a cooler that … Read more
When you have electrical devices in your overlanding vehicle such as a laptop, a fridge-freezer that require power, you will need a car power inverter. This inverter converts direct current, DC, from your car battery to alternating current, AC, to be used by these devices. Power inverters are significant in the electronic world. DC current, … Read more
