Groet uit Alaska
Dagsê!
Hierdie is my eerste forum; kom ons kyk of dit werk.
Geniet nou al 'n ruklank julle webwerf. Dag toe laat ek begin saampraat; ek hou van die dinge wat julle praat.
Nooit voorheen veel te doen gehad met 4x4. Het redelik idee oor karre. Lank gesoek na iets wat sy werk kan doen en nie te veel aandag trek nie.
Uiteindelik my Hilux gevind. 88 SFA 2,2 d/k 4x4. (en ingeval daar enige girls is wat lees; hy's rooi). (een eienaar, 157000km, FSH ens). D sexyste deel is d bruin kajuit!
Met my werk so ver vd huis kom ek so dan en wan huistoe met d idee om nou d plek te begin platry. Het sover 'n standaard snor opgespoor en oorgedoen en opgesit met lekker spots.
Hoop om slim te speel met onkostes en steeds n lekker kamp- en toerbakkie te he.
Sien uit om met julle te kan gesels en bietjie, of baie, advies te kry.
Groetnis

Re: Groet uit Alaska
Baie dankie vir al die welkom-hete!
Ek werk op 'n passasierskip as skeepsdokter. Het vars na my studies besluit ek wil weer bietjie vd wêreld sien en het dit so gemaak. Baie bevoorregd en geniet dit terdeë. Het onlangs Suid-oos Asië verken, en doen nou Alaska.
Die rooi wa staan tans bd huis in SA. Mens kan seker sê ek bly id Kaap aangesien ek daar n plekkie het, maar om eerlik te wees, ek's selde daar: d plek is nog nie eens ingeleef nie!
Einde September eindig my laaste kontrak en dan hoop ek om baie te kan ry en 'n gat of twee te gaan uitkyk. Wil bittergraag die minderbekende plekke dinge gaan sien en ruik. Ek hou 3 maande oop vir my "ekspedisie". Op die oomblik is my planne maar konseptueel: Ry vêr, stop baie, praat met die mense, eet hulle kos, en kom terug met 'n kamera vol kwaai fotos en 'n hart vol stories.
Ek heg 'n paar fotos.

Re: Groet uit Alaska
Welkom! Die wa lyk mooi opgepas ... bietjie lank innie tand maar dit maak eintlik nie baie saak want die kilos is redelik laag en dis in elk geval 'n SFA Hilux! Hoekom rook hy in daai een foto? Was dit stoom met eerste start van die dag of olie rook?
When your road comes to an end ...... you need a HILUX!.
Life is like a jar of Jalapeño peppers ... what you do today, might burn your ass tomorrow.
Don't take life too seriously ..... no-one gets out alive.
It's not about waiting for storms to pass. It's about learning to dance in the rain.
And be yourself ..... everyone else is taken!
