05 Feb 2020Principles of Overlanding: Payload00:31:57
28 Sep 2023Principles of Overlanding: 30 Insights on Traveling the World by Vehicle00:47:59

Scott Brady and Matt Scott discuss the Principles of Overlanding Tweet Storm, a 30 point overview of the core tenets of vehicle-based overland travel. Lessons are often learned the hard way, which in Scott and Matt's case includes screwing up, getting stuck, carjacked, impounded, detained, delayed, and generally mired in the throes of adventure. Even the worst of scenarios had a silver lining (maybe not the carjacking) as their awareness grew and they adjusted their traveling operating systems. During their travels, they have also been fortunate to meet countless overlanders far more skilled, knowledgeable, and clever than themselves, contributing to the source code for sound overland principles.


These principles of overlanding are an attempt at sharing those learnings in as concise a way as possible, distilling the first principles of vehicle-based adventure travel while attempting to strike a balance between Laissez-faire and pedantic. The list is organized from the macro to the micro, and an argument could be made contrary to any of them. This list is our view on a pursuit we all adore- but ultimately, the most essential principle is to go.

19 Jul 2024Next Meridian Expedition on Vehicle Shipping to Australia and the Importance of Finding Your Own Travel Rhythm 01:16:37

Nick Chazee and Mathilde Vougny of Next Meridian Expedition are a French-Italian couple in the midst of a world tour in their Land Rover Defender. In this episode from the field, Nick, Mathilde, and host Ashley Giordano discuss the ins and outs of shipping a vehicle to Australia, top tips for visiting Antarctica on a budget, and the importance of finding your own travel rhythm while overlanding. 


Bio:


Nick and Mathilde launched their World Tour in April 2022, the Next Meridian Expedition. The plan is three years, seven continents, and 88 countries in their fully transformed Land Rover Defender 110, aka the Albatross. After spending most of his life between Asia and Africa, Nick worked for a French tech start-up based in Paris. Mathilde, originally from the French Alps completed degrees in international relations before working several years for the United Nations based in Brussels. The French-Italian couple has always traveled together (their first date revolved around a road trip), but they only recently moved to a full-time overlanding lifestyle. They document the Next Meridian Expedition project on Instagram and YouTube in addition to publishing regularly in travel and overland magazines in French, English and Italian.

06 Jul 2023Overland Journal is Crossing the African Continent with the Ineos Grenadier 00:30:56

Few places on the planet resonate with the adventurer like the African continent, from the vibrant cultures to the ancient civilizations, megafauna, and some of the most remote and inspiring landscapes on earth. At Overland Journal, we have been fortunate to circumnavigate the planet three times and cross all seven continents. Still, we had one journey that has continually called to us- crossing the long axis of the African continent.

Today marks day zero of the journey, as our Ineos Grenadier arrives in Durban, and we begin lightly modifying the vehicle to meet our needs as travelers. We selected the Grenadier because of its "Built on Purpose" design, robust construction, off-highway capabilities, and wagon configuration (Editor's Note: We are not being paid to use the Grenadier). As we often share, pinnacle overland vehicles like the Grenadier require few changes for overlanding, and the Grenadier is no exception. We have no modifications planned for the vehicle, but we will add some storage and systems that help support the adventure. 

Taking Delivery of the Grenadier

We took delivery of the Grenadier in London and spent a week exploring the countryside and testing the vehicle at the Millbrook proving grounds in Bedfordshire. In London, I worked with the Ineos team on securing RORO shipping, spares, support equipment, and the Carnet de Passage for importation. 

Our preparations have begun in Johannesburg, working with longtime friends and partners to help source the needed kit and discussing the route plans with experienced Trans-Africa overlanders. After a few weeks in Joburg, we will conduct a test run through Lesotho and the surrounding bushveld before heading to Cape Town and our launching-off point.

Planned Grenadier Fieldmaster Modifications and Support Equipment:

  1. Secure vehicle storage, including a drawer system
  2. Inside sleeping platform that retains the rear seats
  3. Garmin GPS navigation and satellite communication
  4. Recovery gear, tools, and spares
  5. First aid and emergency supplies
  6. Melvill and Moon canvas seat covers and bed rolls
  7. Redarc battery management with auxiliary lithium battery
  8. Additional 80 liters of auxiliary fuel in Giant Loop bladders and NATO cans
  9. That is it. . .

Our Trans-Africa Overland Route Plan

The original plan was to drive along the classic eastern track from Cape Town to Cairo. With Sudan's closed border, we are looking at all possibilities, including driving north to Kenya and crossing through Rwanda to the DRC and up the west coast. Adjustments are all part of the adventure, and I am being in the moment and taking the journey country by country.
To help document the journey, I will have Joe Fleming along for most (if not all) of the trip. Joe is an inspiring visual storyteller, an experienced traveler, and a good friend. Others are planning to join for short sections too, and we will share our experiences on the pages of Overland Journal, in articles for expeditionportal.com, on our YouTube channel, and on The Overland Journal Podcast. 

I am so grateful for the support of my family and the Overland International team in undertaking this trip, along with the generous help from Aether Apparel, Front Runner, Garmin, Ineos Automotive, Redarc, and others. We look forward to meeting some of you along the Overland Journal trans-Africa continental crossing journey and celebrating what will become a historic first (more on that soon). 

Yours in adventure,
