Route so Far!
The Route So Far!
Ok red is where i have traveled with the expedition vehicle and the blue denotes where i have been on ships with the vehicle. I have always travelled with my car even when i am at sea, if i can’t travel with the truck then i find another route. How i do this is to find a Roll on Roll off ferry first and if that is not possible use a container line that also accepts passengers.
Route 1. Connect streetKids UK to streetKids Canada
Section One. “World Circumnavigation” Hurray i have achieved my first goal!!
Scotland UK , England UK, ship to France, Belgium, Holland, Germany, Czech, Poland, Ukraine, Russia,
over Kazakhstan, Mongolia, and China to Vladivostock Russia, ship to Japan two days at sea, Ship container ship to Vancouver Canada, drive to Prudhoe Bay Alaska, then to Toronto Canada.
This has taken 42 weeks to cover 41,000 klm’s using 7500 liters of diesel using 3 ships, i have only ever paid for 11 nights accommodation thanks to my roof tent and the website www.couchsurfing.com and very friendly people. I ran out of money in Alaska and have been assisted by the local Toyota dealer network with the odd tank of gas and servicing. The kindness of people who have supported this Project is amazing.
I have never been happier, living my dream and sharing all i have with others.
Section Two Canada to South America then foot passenger to Antarctica then Brazil
Section Three TBC Possibly Africa.
Electric Car Project Make big things happen!
I am looking for support to continue with an exciting project to drive a production electric car around the world. This will be a continuation of the “RamblingRat benefiting streetKids International Expedition.
Contact me if you would like to get involved. tim@ramblingrat.com
It is very neat to see the travels you’ve made so far! What stands out is the size of the world and the amount of space you haven’t travelled yet! You are only 1/2 way on your journey! Amazing!
I know that everywhere you go you will meet kids, and each will touch you in their own way. I wish I could be with you to travel through the USA. I know the homeless and street kids there have a particularly difficult time. Not that they don’t elsewhere, but I know on top of having to deal with homelessness, they have to deal with prejudice.
Keep up your enlightened work,
Nichole
