Simple Life Overland
South Africa
เข้าร่วมเมื่อ 12 เม.ย. 2020
Simple Life Overlanding is a natural progression in our family's 4wd'ing and camping journey that started in 2014. The journey started with two hard-working IT dads, an enthusiastic grandfather, curious wives, and 4 young grandchildren who decided to create memories! Memories that will inspire different behaviour and ideals in the generations to come. Way back in 2014 the extent of our holidays covered renting houses or caravans in the areas we wanted to visit, but one simple phone call between brothers and an impassioned plea to the wives has led to an incredible adventure that our children will tell their children about.
Simple Life Overlanding is our way of showing that 4wd'ing and overlanding is simple and all that it takes is a simple decision about doing something intentional to make our complex and demanding lives....simple. Your children are not too young to be part of the journey and you are not too old to be part of your children and grand children's lives.

Richtersveld. Is De Hoop the best campsite ever?
We travel from Potjies Pram to De Hoop, inside the Richtersveld park. This is our 3rd visit to De Hoop and don't think we'll ever get tired of it. It may have a lot to do with the fact that we started this overland channel at De Hoop but still, nothing beats a strong flowing river in front of your tent.
Part 3 will be the last video of this trip where we show you the Fortuner upgrades and explore the Richtersberg route. Richtersveld, just magic!

Exploring the relentless Tankwa Karoo - Part II
มุมมอง 9Kปีที่แล้ว
This really was an eventful trip with lots of repairs but also some fantastic scenery. The trip made us realise how important it is to travel with likeminded people. People that share in the fun times but also in the times when things don't go according to plan. Tankwa Karoo - we'll be back!
Exploring the relentless Tankwa Karoo - Part I
มุมมอง 26K2 ปีที่แล้ว
One of the best getaways you can plan! Visit the Tankwa Karoo via the Cederberg mountains (Wupperthal). You'll experience the best views in the Western Cape, South Africa. We had our fair share of drama with 3 of the 4 vehicles, but that is part of a visit in such an arid area. Check out part 1 and stay tuned for part 2 where we move from Tankwa to Die Mond.
