😀 A BIT ABOUT US:
We’re Marianne & Chris, a happily married couple from the UK. Marianne is a living kidney donor to her best friend, and realising that life was for living and never really knowing what’s round the corner - we decided to fulfil our dream of travelling full time.
So in March 2018 after the kids had left home, we sold our belongings, rented our house and moved into our campervan called Trudy. We set off to see the world and after vanlifing around Ireland and Europe, we grabbed our backpacks and spent 5 months exploring Central America.
Feeling like we needed a challenge, we planned the ultimate van life adventure! In Jan 2020 set off to drive around the World from UK to UK. But after arriving in Turkey, covid caught up with us and closed the borders, so we had a wonderful 18 months exploring this special country. Realising we were not going to be able to head further East, we decided to do a handbrake turn and go the other way and shipped our van to the USA.
We hope you enjoy coming with us, and we’ll continue to share our real adventures and hope you feel inspire to step out of your comfort zone and try something new.

[@erselcakir]

Please do not worry about the hubcaps. A new set is reserved for you in istanbul. Safe travels. 🧿🇹🇷❤️🇬🇧

[@lesleysidhoum1779]

Ah that is so kind of you .

[@TREADtheglobe]

I truly believe that you love Trudy as much as us !! Thank you again Ersel for being our friend xx Love to you both xx

[@angelalocke7340]

You’re such a good friend to Marianne and Chris Sending good vibes to you and all your family from the 🇬🇧

[@hokipoki9088]

Turkish haspitality was a little different from American ! .😆😅🤪

[@Aaron-P]

Such a legend, Ersel!

[@lovetotravel6925]

Commenting from Canada. Most service stations have diesel, although it may be in a separate pump and you just have to move up another 6 - 7 feet or so. Someone in the comments mentioned Cracker Barrel as a place to park overnight. It’s also a great place to stop and have a bite to eat if you’re really hungry. A bit of an experience all on its own. I wish we had them in Canada. By the way, I’ve really enjoyed your Turkey series. You were really fortunate to be “stuck” in such an amazing country

[@TREADtheglobe]

Thanks for the tip - yep we love Turkey and feel really lucky to have a new family there - we will be back there for a quick visit (plans going on in the background to continue the work at the turtle conservation centre!) M

[@lovetotravel6925]

I should add...I like the food at Cracker Barrel but the coffee, not so much! I have eaten at a number of different Cracker Barrel’s and I have yet to find one that can provide you with a decent cup of coffee...unless you like insipid coffee.

[@whatsupchannel3047]

Totally unacceptable especially when you have paid for a service. So disappointed for you it must be devastating, things can be replaced but it's not the point . They must know who's job it was to check and sign off the van . The person who had access with the keys must take responsibility especially if your van hasn't been broken into . So very sad for you both .

[@vanessahenry7238]

I actually heard other van lifers who did this - had been robbed!

[@gregwooff1]

Totally unacceptable! Marianne & Chris you must get in contact with the shipping company!! At the end of the day it's there responsibility to make sure Trudy get there in one peace and everything should be as you left it! Take care of yourself!

[@TREADtheglobe]

Hi Gregory - yep they will only insure Trudy - not the contents - this is standard I am afraid ... but we have moved on and will rebuild !! 🌷

[@gregwooff1]

@@TREADtheglobe good god! So basically it’s a free for all if you put your vehicle on board one of them container ships! Wow that’s ****! Like you say you will rebuild! Good luck and safe driving!

[@always.wondering.wandering]

I was worried that some of your things would disappear but at least the expensive stuff in the lock box was okay. I like how Ersel commented that he has new hubcaps waiting for you in Turkey when you get back......such a nice human being! Okay, now, off to new adventures. Safe travels and well wishes for you two.

[@TREADtheglobe]

We are blessed to have Ersel as our family and as he is our TREAD Manager in Turkey and will always be head of the Trudy support team in Turkey we know he has our back !! 🇹🇷🚐🙌. We are loving the adventure here and so excited as we share it - M xx

[@andreabalderstone4272]

As others have said I would definitely report this to the authorities. The offenders will be relying on people not bothering to report these things going missing, so will continue to get away with it. Looking forward to following your new adventures 😁

[@minniebonsall]

It’s happened to us as well and there’s precious little you can accomplish afterwards (we tried) everyone points the finger at each other - we got nowhere with our complaints etc - you realize it’s a dirty little secret of the industry.

[@FEARNoMore]

Yeah, foreigners tend not to report it because of fear of maybe rocking the boat that may affect their visit. I agree, they should file a complaint. That's why it's important to film before and after and check the vehicle before leaving port.

[@MoonRiverTravels]

I'm so sorry this has happened to you guys. It was one of my fears: when you entrust not just your vehicle but also your home to others, it's so upsetting when this trust is abused. Fingers-crossed you have everything you need, and can replace everything that's missing.

[@TREADtheglobe]

Thank you 🌷

[@normawingo5116]

It’s just wonderful knowing you’re here, great to hear your voices. I think back billing the shipping company is in order. A little low power security camera would be a great invention with an app like ring doorbells, so if anyone enters your van/home, it sends you their picture or video. Van lifers, start inventing! Love you bunches!

[@ashley0423399993]

So sorry to hear. I feel for you. These thieves are so low that they even steal flip-flops 😩 Look at it this way, Trudie is OK, and that you're all safe and sound. Bon voyage.

[@TREADtheglobe]

Absolutely !! We appreciate that it is a small thing - and we have moved on now 🌺

[@allencherry907]

It's so upsetting what has happened to you both. I hope the rest of your trip to America goes better. If you come to Tampa Florida you have a place to stay at our home. My wife and I can show you around Tampa. You can try a famous cuban sandwich or a deviled crab. If you like amusement parks we can take you to Busch Gardens. Have a great time traveling America ! Enjoy all your videos !!

[@sylviapage8572]

I love the way you always just take everything in your stride and move on. I can’t wait to see where Trudy takes you in the USA. Thanks for sharing.

[@trundlebustravels]

So sorry to hear about your unfortunate problems and the theft on the boat, hopefully the insurance will let you restock. Safe travels in the US and we are looking forward to the next exciting episode

[@maliakai9323]

Oh no! I am so sorry you two. What a total drag. They used the chair bag to put all the stolen stuff in. Love you two

[@TREADtheglobe]

I think you are right !!

[@RobertsBulgaria]

I feel your pain, been there done it when my apartment was burgled, but as upsetting as it is, it is all replaceable whereas, life is not. Let the adventure begin.

[@billybraithwaite67]

Disgusting that you guys have had this happen to Trudy.. there must be some way of finding out who checked her over & signed it off.. this has probably happened before to other people.. this needs addressing. Don’t let it annoy you but don’t let it pass either. Safe travels guys 👍

[@clairecampbell6843]

So excited and can not wait to see all the adventures on this road trip.

[@mantaray2239]

In spite of the discouraging theft, you guys proved marvelously resilient. I love your delight in new destinations and foods. And the way you share the details of your travels. Also, the behind-the-scenes work and skill involved in filming and editing each new episode. Looking forward to further videos of your American tour.

[@drivinghorizons]

Sad something like this happens, but at least Trudy has arrived safe and sound, and you can start your stateside adventure. Can't wait to follow along 👍

[@yagmurcamd]

Chris and Marianne were just as happy as the kids because they got Trudie back together. What a beautiful reunion. Every item has a place. Everyone in their place, please.

[@KatesThings]

Love seeing you discover all the differences in the US. Green for diesel still gets me 20 years in! Stay weather aware-have a shelter in mind when tornadoes are threatened, toilet blocks at campsites. Have fun 🤩

[@barbaram5214]

I am so sorry about the theft! Really upsetting I know. But by the end of the video you both had smiles on your faces. And I was smiling watching you learn about American businesses and ways of doing things. I hope that your visit to the U.S. (and Canada and Mexico) is wonderful.

[@TREADtheglobe]

Thank you Barbara - we will always move on from sadness and upset as this is not where our hearts lie - Thanks for joining us on the road trip 🌺

[@seapappy9183]

Everything you’re mentioning stolen are things crew members on a ship would find useful. Grooming supplies, fans, clothing, shoes, etc. File a complaint with the shipping agent.

[@tonyp011]

Yes I agree put in a complaint and a claim against the shipping company and/or agent, they are not allowed to take your stuff it’s theft, I would get legal advice to see if there are grounds for a private prosecution

[@6985375]

Those crew that work on those ships spend months if not years at a time on them. Very little pay. I feel sorry for them but it's sad you got robbed.

So disappointing. I can well understand how violated you must feel. Nasty, selfish perpetrators. 😥

[@theresaboothby8693]

I am so sorry you had to go through such a negative mess. Yet you both keep such a positive attitude! I am feeling your pain as I watch you drive around looking for propane. Tractor Supply and Uhaul didn't service on board tanks so I ended up at Campers Inn (much much smaller than Camper's World). I'm camping with full hook ups this week in my 25 foot Winnebago - luxurious compared to sweet little Trudy. But I have several boondocking (no hook up spots) I need to be ready for in the next few weeks. Chris really made me laugh . . . "look at the size of those caravans!! Look! Even the sides pop out." I'm dwarfed by my huge travel trailer and fifth wheel neighbors. Marianne would love the huge trucks they have to tow them with. Thank you so much for taking us along for your adventures. Safe travels.

[@TREADtheglobe]

I know !! I had to laugh 😂🚐

[@shuvanidev]

So sorry your van got trashed. I've heard it's common when you ship. I saw some van-lifers do a very successful anti-theft thing to their van when they had it shipped (Snow & Curt). They actually had a temporary wooden wall built between their cab and the back and they put special locks on the slide and back doors and it worked. Yeah, those guys probably used your van as a hideaway when they wanted to take breaks on ship - feels yukky. So glad you were able to get her organized and on the road again though. Looking forward to your adventures, take care.

[@sandyviewcottagelakeeriedu7330]

I saw one couple got their promaster in a container for the trip by ship from Panama to Columbia. They had to take fan out and mirrors off, but got it in. Who was That? Anybody remember?

So sorry to hear this Chris & Marianne. So maybe next time make a full list of everything in & on Trudie & take photos of everything. Stick a copy of list or a notice inside Trudie stating you have a complete list & photos of everything. You could then go to customs for a "please explain" if anything on future is taken. If insurance was included in all the fees you paid you should be able to claim?? Trust you will carry on in your usual cheery positive way.
