I've been writing my list for the past 2 months and the list never ends. It's the little things that count, the big things can bury you so they take a longggggg time to achieve and I don't worry about them.

HIya Marc (@WANDERING STAR Overland) and welcome to Overland Bound. That is one nice looking Taco. I'd love to hear about what you have done to it to get it ready to get into trouble and get back. This is a great area (the PNW) for enjoying the outdoors and getting to know other overlanders. I am always amazed at the number of overlanding rigs I see going up and down I-5. I know you mentioned working in Everett... that is a pretty nasty commute going through Seattle all the time. I'm lucky enough to stay far away from that mess.
I know you already found the NorthWest Region forum [link]. That's a great place to find out what is going on in our area. You should also watch the Rally Point system [link], as events will be posted there as well. I am sure that, as we get further into spring and summer, there will be lots of opportunities to meetup.
I look forward to meeting you in person some day soon. Until then, if you need anything don't hesitate to send me a message on the forums @Jedi.
Hi everybody,
complete newbie to overlanding from Antwerp, Belgium. Have been exploring some mild Europe backcountry with my best friend in an old Suzuki Samurai that we rebuild so I guess you could call this a first step into overlanding. Wanting to take it to another level (and convince the misses to join me) I recently bought a Ram Rebel 2019 Crew Cab. This will be our overland rig and daily commuter so I'm curious how that will work out. Looking forward to learning from everybody here and hopefully expand my overlanding knowledge! I already started the "conversion" with a rooftoptent and awning.
Greetings,
Cristopher from Antwerp, Belgium

Hi Christopher and welcome to OB. I wish you luck on getting your wife out in the boonies with you. My wife loved to travel but when it came to camping out her idea of camping out was in a Holiday inn. Stick with it, your on your way and looking good.

Frank Lloyd Wright of rigsville. What are you gonna do next to the rig.? Where do you pack the portable swimming pool and jacuzzi.
Now I know what they mean when they say "don't leave home with out it" Just jealous my friend , "happy trailing ". Had 6 kids of my
own but we all slept in pup tents under God's starry nights when I could afford to buy the gas for a weekend away in my 58 Edsel 4
door station wagon.

Thanks, yeah the roof top tent is definitely going to be very nice from all the years on the ground... No pool, no jacuzzi, just some good ol' fashion camping, in style I guess.
