@globaltraces172 we will be watching with envy, we can't wait to get going!

So thrilled that the adventure has begun. Being in America, myself, I can’t wait to see what overlanding is like in Europe (and farther afield)-where you can escape to, the dips in the road (which can be more memorable than the successes), and what you get to experience that you never anticipated. Best of luck with it all and safe travels.

Beautiful Jesse. What a fantastic thing! You finally got to marry the man of your dreams (can't wait to meet!) and have a wonderful family to go share BIG adventures. with. 'One life. Live it' , as the saying goes! A bit of a slow start, but am getting there myself 😂❤️🤗 May the wind be at your backs, and the sun on your faces; am sure you packed the sunscreen. 😎Safe, happy, magical travels. Love you. Sofs, and Bee dog ❤️🌈💕🐾✨ Xxx

Thanks Danny, really lovely to hear from you and hope all’s well with you over the pond? 😊. Any plans to explore Europe soon? Our plan is to head out to Canada and the USA in mid 2025 which we cannot wait to explore in the truck! Would be fab to meet up there! Very true what you say and got to take the highs with the lows -makes the highs even sweeter! Take care and keep in touch x

[@simonlees7031]

Good morning to you all hope you have found the sun, have you done a video on the truck inside and out ,and where did you get it made, I live in france but soon to retire and looking at selling up and travelling full-time

[@globaltraces]

Hi Simon, we haven’t done a full video tour yet, but if you look on Instagram you can see a 360 interior video. Bebe was built by Motorcraft Adventure Decelopments in Doncaster while the interior was done by a company called Off Grid Campers who are sadly no longer doing conversions because they retired!

[@JonathanAlessandro]

Please do a full tourr!!!

[@globaltraces]

As soon as we get to some nice sunny weather, a full tour is top of our list!

[@littlelegsjodie5703]

Bebe beeps 💜🌍🚐😊😊😊🐶💜

[@globaltraces]

Thanks 😊 hope you’re having fun and enjoying your trip! ❤

[@littlelegsjodie5703]

@@globaltraces. Thank you for all being so trusting and natural and sharing your beautiful words and beautiful pictures and beautiful filming. X

[@xitanm8963]

❤ amazing. Building my man soon, any box builders for the truck you suggest ?

[@globaltraces]

We’d always recommend Motorcraft Adventure Developments who built Bebe’s box. Definitely worth talking to them 👍

[@xitanm8963]

Thank you very much for your reply I will check them out.

[@xitanm8963]

Once again i have another question. Since i am in the process of registering the man on my name. Do you need a tacho graph to register your driving hours since the truck is used as a camper ?

[@globaltraces]

If it’s registered as a PHGV then there’s no need for a tacho. But still you should be mindful of your driving hours - they’re big trucks that make big dents if you hit something!

[@xitanm8963]

@globaltraces172 Thank you very much and enjoy your trip. Will follow you 😀

[@JonathanAlessandro]

Yessirrr youre back
