Hey guys !
I decided to make this post about my Overland trip that started two weeks ago because it's not the usual kind of trip ...
This is a ONE YEAR long overland trip across Mid Europe, Scandinavia, Eastern Europe, Russia, Central Asia and Mongolia.
My girlfriend Lizanne, our adventure cat Hughie and I left everything in France (Home, job, friends, family, comfort) for this adventure !
Our rig for this trip is a fully overland outfited 1997 SF5 Subaru Forester.
This little soccer mom wagon is also not the usual kind of overland rig you see traveling around the world. But I have absolutely no worries about it's capabilities or reliability.
This thing is lifted, got skid plates, AT tires, low range gear, aux battery, a full overland storage setup and kitchen, RTT, awning, and a lot of MOLLE pouches
More infos on the rig :

So as I said, we already left ! And we already had a couple of ups and downs
First of all, I broke the D rings that keeps the RTT compressed, we have all the bedding inside and the annex on top of it, so it's a tight fit ! Now I just use spare straps I have but I will work on a more permanent fix.
Then Lizanne had a couple of ticks on her ... This is something we didn't hear anywhere but Sweden is full of these nasty parasites.
And to end the first week in beauty, our little adventure cat Hughie had a badly infected tooth, like really bad So we had to drive in emergency to the nearest vet, it was an 1h45min drive. And not to mention that Sweden is one of the most expensive country in Europe about vet cares ...
But that's the adventure ! And we will keep going, stronger than ever !
I will try to keep this post as updated as possible but being full time on the road we are a bit limited in data and energy !

Hi guys ! After my own presentation it's time to introduce my rig wich is currently "in progress" (well, like most of our rigs ...) But first of all, I'm gonna briefly explain to you, what leads me here. I own, for about 3 years now, a Volkswagen Mk3 Variant. This is a great car, I love it ...
