Welcome to the group Elan,Hi Im new to here I wheel a 2012 Jeep KK with some minor mods, she's still a work in progress. Im always seeking new adventure.
Welcome to the group Jay,Hello Overlanders! My name is Jay from Los Angeles, California! Brand new to the world of overlanding and off-roading for that matter.
Grew up in Kenya with my family in the safari business so I was often in the wild enjoying nature and wildlife. Now, living in this city I crave the outdoors, but don't have a group of like minded individuals to share the experience with. Then I found OverlandBound on Instagram and my eyes lit up!
Rig: 2008 VW Touareg. Not much on it besides all terrain tires, spacers and a roof basket (which I occasionally take off).
If anyone is in or around the LA area, I would love to go for some easy/moderate day trail drives on the weekends!
Thanks all - looking forward to the many adventures to follow!

Welcome to the group Travis,Hello everyone. I just started getting into the overland side of things. Been following Overland Bound for awhile. I have three boys that love going with me. I have a 2015 JKU that i have started outfitting and I just started on a trailer build. Looking forward to learning and sharing my experiences.
Great looking Jeep! Love the 2 door! Where are you out west now?Hello everyone! Happy to be here and very excited to become a member of the Overlandbound community!
I just purchased my membership badges and can't wait for them to arrive!
Location - Eureka, CA
Rig - 2014, Jeep, Wrangler Rubicon 2 door
Overlanding Experience Background - We are definitely new to overlanding but have experience wheeling back home in Florida. It's a whole new world here out west and we cannot wait to get out there and gain experience in this new terrain!
My wife and I are currently travelling the U.S. (My wife does contract work in the medical field) in our bus conversion and have been bit by the overlanding bug. Hope to meet many of you while we are travelling!
Here are a few pictures of our rig!

Jeremy,Hello. I'm happy to be part of the group. I've been watching here for awhile waiting to join until I actually had a vehicle. After months of searching for a Land Cruiser that was in good shape and wouldn't break the budget I finally found one sort of, it's a Lexus LX470. It's a little fancy for me but it'll get the job done.
Location - SF Bay Area (East Bay)
Rig - 2006 Lexus, LX 470 - stock
Overland Experience - zilch...unless you count watching Michael's video and reading this forum.
I'm so happy this community is here. Earlier this year, I saw a video on YouTube about a Sportsmobile trip on the Mojave Road and heard the term "overlanding". I googled it and found some of Michael's videos and it's been an obsession ever since. I was intimated at first, as I'm the farthest thing from a mechanic, but the desire to get out there away from civilization and the existence of a community like made it seem possible. So a big "thank you" is in order for what you've all created. I will pay it forward.
I'm excited to get started on building out the rig for overlanding and camping with the family. Here's a pic of the yet to be named rig (I can't keep calling it "the Lexus")
Thanks again.
