  • 4 years ago we drove our Land Rover Defender out of Stephys mums driveway in France to begin an overland journey around the world 🌍
    60,000km and 36 countries later we drive that same Defender in to Leigh's parents drive in Western Australia.
    Its been an epic adventure and we are so excited to begin this next chapter exploring the epic outback of Australia.
    This video details the arrival of our vehicle and the procedure to get our French registered camping car on the roads of Australia.
    Join us as we travel the world overland, exploring the cultures and traditions of all the countries we visit.
    In our Land Rover Defender camper which is our full time home we will take you rock climbing, hiking and exploring across all the continents on this planet.

    Attendre un container en se faisant 50 films à la minute de naufrage de perte de vol... seuls ceux qui ont attendus comprennent vraiment votre joie et votre émotion. Chapeau à la douane Australienne, mes expériences de container des US à Hambourg .... enfin c´est du passé , Cool de vous savoir chez Leigh pour de nouvelles aventures!

    One of your happiest vids so far. Your excitement totally permeated the camera and it’s as if one can feel your emotions running through themselves. I loved it enormously. Leigh and Steffy congrats on the successful delivery of your “baby”

    Congratulations Leigh and Stef. What an achievement, not many (if any) could say that they drove out of the driveway of one set of parents in France and drove into the driveway of the other set in Australia. A real feel good moment in your fantastic adventure. Hope to see you on the road somewhere in my Defender! @defenderroo

    Shame about the mould in Bear, though there is little doubt that powerhouse of a wife of yours will have the truck smelling fresher than the french Alps in no time!
    Steph, so happy and excited.
    Glad everything went smoothly.
    A family reunited is always a great thing.

    Usually, when you move in anywhere, you search for a house and try to turn it into a Home... Apparently there are some crazy people waiting for a home to come overseas while searching where to keep moving.... Stephy was bursting into happy flames. Oy! Oy! Oy! Australia!!! Auffff!! Guys you have no idea how (selfishly) ecstatic I am. SPECTACULAR!!!

    Suggestion for if you have to ship via container again. Use large desiccant packs and oxygen absorbers to keep the humidity under control in the truck! Good job!

We actually went thru our expenses to get our Greek car here registered and ready to travel and it was almost the same. Happy roads and we hope our paths cross.
