Hi guys, thanks again for all the great feedback! Apologies for our silence of the last weeks. We spent some much needed time in Marocco... With our Landcruiser ofcourse ;-)

I still owe you guys two posts: one with practicalities about the route (gps info,..) and one with a bit more info about equipment. It will not be for this week, but it's coming... soon(ish). :-)
Great to hear from you again.:)
It looks like your Land Cruiser has been modified a tiny bit.
Towards the end of last year, Frederik and Josephine presented at the Overland Live webcast series.
F&J: Thanks again for sharing your trip.
The original recording (using Webex) is still available however a MP3 of the talk is now available and a video clip:

Thank you Martin!
Guys,
That's far and away the best web-based expedition log/ trip report I've ever read - only recently signed up to the forum and had to read about your travels from start to finish!
I'm mightily impressed by your courage, determination and fascinating insights. I salute you !
Cheers,
TT
Fantastic Story - Captivating to say the least :-)
Thanks for sharing
Thanks Frederik and Josephine for the very thrilling expedition report. I realy enjoyed reading about it as I could recognise allot of your travelling troubles with the troubles I had when I was living at my farm in Zambia. (Siavonga) Tho Zambians aren't as um aggressive as the Congo people, the begging and the "masungo" (white people) prices are there. And Southern part of Zambia is dryer than the rainforests of Congo so my bush driving wasn't in mud but in sandy track and rocks. Well unless its rainy season then we had high waters. Deepest I drove in was up to the hood of the Discovery. (no snorkel) That was fun :D feelt like driving a boat/submarine.
Im thinking of sharing my Zambian story here allso even if its not a 100% expedition story it have alott of bush driving in it. Also tales of hippos outside the tend, how to bath among crocodiles and how to find land.
But if you find your self in the west coast of Sweden, drop by and ill buy you guys beer. And if you find your self near Siavonga in the southern parts of Zambia let me know and you can stay at eider of my farms.
Cheers for the brave.
