World Trip Via Truck
American Nicholas Rapp set off on an around the world trip in his '96 Toyota Land Cruiser, that took him over 37,000 miles, mostly overland. He survived landslides, monkey attacks, breakdowns and accidents, jungles, harassment from cops and border guards, and theft. But aside from these minor annoyances, there were no major issues on his trip, and he was able to get home fine and stay within his $50,000 budget.
His trip started out from New York to Buenos Aires, then South Africa to Iran, through India to Bangladesh and around southeast Asia before flying back to the West Coast and then driving home to New York. While it sounds like a crazy trip, Rapp did take some precautions. He got all the current vaccinations and had his truck outfitted with a pop-up tent and other equipment.
