About Us

Follow me and my sons (Jean & Lian) during our various adventures.

Anything from a weekend break away from the city buzz, overlanding throughout Africa, or even just trying to raise my two boys by cultivating a love for the outdoors. At the same time ensuring that they don’t kill each other on these adventures :-)

Although an adventure is dangerous and wild, it is a deep spiritual craving that is etched into one's soul.

Keep in touch

What a great game between these two schools: @hugenote_laerskool vs @laerskoolhugorust.

At the end our beautiful town, #wellington, was the winner.

Until next year!

Not the sight that you want to see 🙈. One-to-o

Not the sight that you want to see 🙈.

One-to-one encounter with a cut off tree trunk and the end result is a bent steering arm.

To get one of these out is not a joke, but after two hours with a four pound hammer we got it out, straighted it with an extended pipe and back in again.

Big thanks to Deon and his helper from @tankwatentedcamp for lending a hand.

Received a couple of questions on these two items

Received a couple of questions on these two items after our walk around video off our 80 Series Land Cruiser on YouTube.

In the first two pics – to make live easier on the road I opt to have a control box (designed by @jacques_kamp_kommando) at one of my gullwings that will give us easy access to 1) on/off of working lights on the rear swingarm & side of the roof rack, 2) on/off of water pump for the tap on the rear bumper & 3) on/off of air compressor with the inlet of the air hose easy accessible via the back door.

Second set of pics – central control safe designed by @rdoffroad2003. Some of the key items stored in this area is our medical kit & travel documentation. To avoid a clutters of different switches on the dashboard @jacques_kamp_kommando opted to have them all (5 switches) installed on the centre console. 1) on/off of fuel pump between main & seconder fuel tanks, 2) on/off of LED light bar on the roof rack, 3) on/off of spot lights on the front bull bar. 4 & 5 is currently open and will probably be used for an air horn & winch.

Shout if you guys have any further questions. If you missed the built head over to our YouTube channel (link in bio) and you will find both video’s.

Birthday celebrations continue...

Big thanks to Alistair and his team at @xcombatsa for their hospitality, but more importantly for the professionalism how they managed these young ones today.

For all of them it was their first introduction to #paintball and what an eye opener it was 🤣🙈.

Not my current situation, but look forward to our camp next weekend with this old dog at @skaapstekertjiebushpub.

Clean and shiny a weekend or two ago at the @paul_greyling_laerskool fund raising event.

At last! NEW YouTube video!

In this final episode of our #80SeriesLandCruiser build we go through some of the key components and modifications on this vehicle.

Every family have a different setup how they camp or do longer trips, but after testing everything on this vehicle extensively I can't find anything that I would want to change...perhaps his fuel consumption 🤣🙈.

Williston Landbouskou - survived 😜!

Brings back so much memories from our Willeklong days.

After day two I thought, oh boy the body is not going to make it but what an amazing experience visiting #williston and enjoy a few “teerpale“ with the locals and old friends.

Meet new people, see new things, experience new things, be amazed by awesome sunsets, camping under open skies ... Check!
