Hey traveller,

About us: All three of us are from The Netherlands. Our passion for Africa comes from our time spent there during research for the master thesis Nature Conservation. Sander is now Research Coordinator and guide in central Tuli Block, Botswana (Instagram: dutch_guy_in_africa). Lars and Kellie are setting up a nature conservation and community development project in Kafue National Park, Zambia (for more info on their plans or blogs on their overland trip see:
By Life Connected or Instagram: ByLifeConnected).
Reason for selling our hero: Sander hasn’t got the time to use the car. Lars and Kellie are buying a car registered in Zambia.
