Driving Memories: Land Rover Defender from the team to Limpopo from Joburg.
Land Rover vehicles, especially the iconic protector, work deep in Africa in Africa.
There is no doubt about these solid cars that brows our deserts until the wide views, deserts, savannaz and mountains, savannaz and mountains, the most remote villages.
For me, Land Rover has always been a symbol of a symbol reflecting the spirit of the family, adventure and continent. This bond is not just about a means; It’s about memories, trips and relationships covering generations.
Grow, my grandfather’s Land Rover Series was 3 family legend. It was a 1978 model, although I never saw in full glory. Instead, I just met the pictures of grain causing the surface during the visit to the house of my aunt.
These images are framed in a corner of the car, sometimes in the background of sunny savanna or dusty roads. I’m aunt and uncle in a picture – and you can see something I know that the Kurdard Land Rover really exists in the background.
My grandfather, a proudest generation of the Mozambique, including those land rovers, including Kwazulu-Natal, including Kwazulu-Natal, also included his homeland.
Land Rover seemed to be the world of the family, which is an important part of our heritage. More than just a car, it was witnessed the moments of our family and still live in our stories today.
I saw that the land Rover was sitting in his head, when he sat in the territory of Africa. My memory was just echo from the past; a family treasure that I can only imagine.
However, an unexpected opportunity recently allowed to experience a modern version of the soil rover – in a strange way, something that it closed.
One week ago, the 3rd series of the 1978 series was behind the wheel of a Land Rover Defender, it is once a strong, luxurious and advanced model.
My visit took me to Babohi, Babohi, one of the most picturesque and most environmentally friendly parts of South Africa, GWABI personal game reserve to Babohi in the Waterberg region.
The driver took about three hours and had all the territory in a car that could handle the comb.
However, the visit was more special, South African Explorer and the author Kingsley Holgate was part of a man who is synonymous with African adventures.
Holgate for many is a living legend. Adam is an institution to explore the farthest corners of the African continent. The founder of an experienced adventurer, the founder of the Humanitarian and Kingsley Holgate Foundation, passed the boundaries and landscapes that most of us can dream.
The expeditions took him to the farthest places on the continent, serve as a reliable companion in the hardest areas with a dry rover.
Holgate name is synonymous as an adventure itself with the Land Rover Defender.
I couldn’t help as Limpopo drove along the waves of Limpopo, but I could feel a deep relationship with my family’s legacy.
The driver of the driving was not the vehicle of my grandfather, but the spirit of the original land rover was still alive – every turn of the engine, every turn behind the wheel, behind us.
As I looked at the caravan, including the reserve, I understood a clearer cultural and personal connection, which shares most of our many of our people.
Holgate has its own rich history with a soil rover. His work and passion took him to the farthest areas, while driving between the landscape that was not forgotten.
Over the years, the defender was more than a transportation for him – this is a domestic, intelligence partner.
I had a chance to talk to him during a walk, and the deserts, the mountains and jungles were as attractive as ideas. He was humble to hear many adventures and people he met along the way.
Each story was an Ode to Africa’s unfavorable spirit.
His son Ross Kingsley, once shared a story about how a territorial rover of a territorial rover with an expedition with the ROM they had fun in Africa.
Outside the adventure, Holgate has a humanitarian side. Its foundation is dedicated to improving the life of the most sensitive population of the continent and is a testament to the company’s reputation, which is not only surprising in Africa’s strongest environment.
How to travel a car for a car, a car to represent something, the more it began to create something, strength, strength and country.
Travel to Waterberg was more than an opportunity to live a modern Land Rover Defender. It was a way for me to bring together my family’s experiences in years ago.
I could feel the presence of the 1978 series in the land rover I driving, and I could feel the inheritance of the vehicle and the legacy of those who managed. The vehicles we do sometimes are not just the car, but their memory, the history and the stories we have done with us.
The defender for Holgate has been part of a personal firework that has a symbol of both adventure and goal. As we have been arrogant with African Bush, I just felt a deep gratitude to the inheritance of these travels, but to continue these travels, after generation.
In some way, my grandfather’s Land Rover is with us today, a witness for the ongoing adventures of the family.
Land Rover Defender is people like people like Holgate, who are patients who have life mission to explore and protect the continent, people living in Africa and every day. For me, this is a symbol of the family, a symbol of lost memories and undiscovered thread.
