In this video we are in the Netherlands in a campsite and for now we must stay in campsites until we reach Norway where wilderness, mountains and wild camping on the back roads are allowed. We also give you a tour of our setup and what we are using in the Jeep.

After five months of building and preparing the Jeep XJ for its maiden voyage through Europe up to Northern Scandinavia the trip has finally begun. We have packed up all our worldly possessions and left the UK to find a new home in Sweden.
We estimate that we will be living in the Jeep XJ for 4 to 5 months and hopefully It will take us to some truly stunning locations the further into the wilderness we go.
