Our Defender is in Indonesia (Mould Everywhere!)
There is mould everywhere… Our Home on Wheels needs LOVE!
After three months away from our Defender, parked in Indonesia during the rainy season, we finally return to continue our world tour across Asia. But nothing could prepare us for the shock we faced when we opened the doorsโฆ The inside of our home-on-wheels was completely ruined.
Despite the damage, weโre not giving up. In true Meridien Expedition spirit, weโre rolling up our sleeves, and getting ready to explore the incredible island of Sumba one more time before continuing our overland journey across the continent.
Join us as we tackle setbacks, rediscover our love for the road, and prove once again that nothing can stop the adventure.
