I CROSS EUROPE TO GO OVERLANDING IN AFRICAN SOLO |S1EP1|

Introduction: hello there, I’m Charline and let me tell you my story. In December 2019 I decided to quit my jobn to go traveling the world. A few weeks later, I got to live with the most fascinating people I’ve ever met: the tribes of Ethiopia. And this powerful experience completely shaped my life. Then, I was seduced by the overlanding lifestyle when I was roaming in Southern Africa. I felt deeply free and wild. Caught by the pandemic in Botswana, I was back to Europe after seven unforgettable months. I knew I left my heart out there. So I decided to buy my own car Rafiki and to turn it into a true expedition 4x4. Today, I’m driving back to Africa. Guys, welcome onboard!
---
I maybe dreamt about this day a thousand times. It’s been one and a half year I’m getting ready to drive back to Africa. And this day has arrived. On the 26th of January it’s time to realise my dream. It’s not easy to say goodbye when you have absolutely no idea when you will be back. But apparently ‘our imagination and hope become a reality if we have the courage to believe and take action to realise them’. So welcome to my solo expedition to Africa!
Freedom is the most powerful tool to seek happiness. We might get lost along the way but I can tell you that when you feel free, and that one of your dreams come true, you will never be the same but the person you truly are.
And again, it’s only the possibility of having a dream come true that makes life interesting. So please, never give up and be free.

Dear Charline. Planing for the same trip. A life time dream is coming true. I wish you so many beautiful moments. Save travels and greetings from Switzerland.

[@CharlineRibotta]

Oh this is amazing!!! I can’t wait for you to live it 😍

[@mogomotsitaudi6568]

Beautiful

[@robertburton.wandering.won9154]

The journey begins. Remembering how to do this thing! Learning Rafiki's idiosyncrasies. Developing trust in the capabilities. In the future Charline will be sleeping in the desert, and she will dream about these freezing, windy, snowy nights... But for now she is simply Enjoying the freedom, knowing this is how things are going to be for a long time. 😌

Very cool video Charline. Keep them coming. And... Enjoy South Africa, enjoy Africa!

[@CharlineRibotta]

Thanks so much man! 🤗

[@4WheelingSA]

@@CharlineRibotta It is a pleasure. Is something wrong with you IG?

[@CharlineRibotta]

@@4WheelingSA Instagram deleted my account 6 days ago. You can’t imagine how terribly sad and upset I am 😭

[@4WheelingSA]

@@CharlineRibotta No! Why did they do this? Hope you can create another? Otherwise you can give KZbin a full go. Maybe use shorts for what would have been on IG and longer for normal KZbin? Matti Happoja made a video on the different platforms, IG did not rate very high. So maybe a good opportunity for you?

[@CharlineRibotta]

@@4WheelingSA I don’t really know tbh. They say nudity and violent graphics but it’s bullshit. I don’t know if I want to create another one, I’m scared to loose everything again. I actually want to focus on KZbin…let’s see 🙂
