Robert Van Den Hoven, April 19, 2026April 19, 2026

  A wild northern Canada and Alaska road trip weaving through mountains, coast, and borderlands—this route from Whitehorse to Beaver Creek takes you through the dramatic pass to Skagway, across the water to Haines, and back onto the open highway toward Alaska. Along the way, we encountered snowfalls, blizzards, and…

Vancouver Island to Whitehorse (Yukon)

Robert Van Den Hoven, April 10, 2026April 10, 2026

The morning air in Cairns was already warm and heavy with tropical humidity as we made our way to the airport, the first step in a very long journey back to Canada. There is always excitement at the beginning of another adventure. We took off from Cairns and landed in…

The Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race, Alaska’s “Last Great Race on Earth,” kicks off in Anchorage this March.

144 countries… and still exploring. 2026, NORTH TO ALASKA

Robert Van Den Hoven, April 2, 2026April 2, 2026

144 countries… and still exploring. Following our winter expedition through Iceland and Siberia, we are now on the final leg of this journey travelling from Vancouver to Alaska, after crossing Canada from east to west in 2025. After decades of travel, certain truths become very clear: The world is far…

MAURITANIA

Robert Van Den Hoven, February 14, 2026February 14, 2026

Mauritania is part of what many consider the unseen Africa—for some, this is where Africa truly begins. Unlike Morocco, which is often culturally associated with southern Europe, Mauritania is deeply rooted in sub-Saharan Africa. Yet it remains little known, even among overlanders. What is even less known is that modern-day…

ICELAND in WINTER

Robert Van Den Hoven, February 5, 2026February 5, 2026

Iceland in winter wasn’t just a sightseeing trip. It also felt like a measured expedition: moving when conditions allowed, stopping when they didn’t, and accepting that the environment set the terms. We drove across frozen volcanic ground, watched the sky shift from darkness to blue twilight and back again, and…

SIBERIA in Winter

Robert Van Den Hoven, January 24, 2026January 24, 2026

NORTHERN RUSSIA IN WINTER (2012) Reaching the North Cape itself in winter is never guaranteed. Lucky we were allowed to follow the snowplow. Arriving in Northern Russia with day time temperatures of minus 30 dropping to minus –40°C, every decision mattered. Turn the engine off too long and it might…

SUDAN, 2010 & 2016

Robert Van Den Hoven, January 17, 2026January 17, 2026

Sudan is vast and rarely visited by overlanders, a country shaped by beauty, hardship, and extraordinary hospitality. Though conflict has made parts of it inaccessible, those who travel there discover a warmth unmatched elsewhere in the region. Sharing tea is a national ritual, and no Sudanese family eats without inviting…

Mali, West Africa

Robert Van Den Hoven, January 7, 2026January 7, 2026

Traveling in Mali is not about luxury; it’s about connection. Mali’s past feels alive beneath your feet. Centuries ago, this land was the heart of the Mali Empire—one of the richest and most influential empires in world history. We were incredibly fortunate to meet Ogo and his family, who welcomed…
