A glass of water left on the table can freeze overnight without heater. Without aircon you will not want to be in the Middle East or say Central America in Summer. Best of luck making a decision.

    I know you've built to go overseas with the Mog but with shipping costs and even trying to get on a ship at the moment you might want to stick to Aus for a while. My company regularly ships 100 - 150 containers to various destinations around the world each month. At the moment we struggle to get spots for 50 and even when we book 2 or 3 months out we'll often get booted at short notice. Costs have also gone from $1.5k per container to Europe to $10k.

Toda America es un lugar espectacular para recorrer. El costo de vida es muy bajo en America del sur. Repuestos para el Mog estoy seguro que vas a encontrar, Mercedes Benz vende muy bien todos sus productos en America. Igual Australia es un lugar maravilloso y sorprendente.

    I did a world trip a few years ago on a motorbike, I couldn't recommend South America highly enough! It has all the natural beauty you could ever want, and an abundance of national parks to setup in your mog and go hiking or exploring. Personally I found SE Asia too busy for overland / camping travel. But I did meet plenty of people that loved it there.
    Kashmir area in India and Pakistan along with Iran also massive highlights, but not as relaxing to travel as South America.
    The top end will be awesome and definitely try the Frenchmans track up on the cape!

      Hi Guys,
      I’m sure all the OS places u will get to over the years will be great.
      I’m lucky to have been to
      Sth. America, a few times and travelled to many of its countries.
      Definitely the south of
      Sth. America would be awesome
      The Patagonia region etc
      The Sth East area of Argentina
      Look up Bariloche
      Amazing area
      Snow in Winter, lakes / fjords
      Over mountains etc and into southern Chile.
      Up the Chilean coast to Santiago, and then over the Andes to Mendoza…
      Brazil…
      2 hours south east of São Paulo is Guaruja.
      U can then keep driving north along the coast, and all the way to Rio De Janiero
      So many great towns, beaches, coastline etc on this drive…
      Anyway
      Heaps of awesome stuff throughout Sth. America
      Road tripping in USA is fantastic
      So many huge Winnebago etc
      Vehicles in the USA
      So travelling in the Mog will be easy, as they have facilities for these large vehicles
      Rocky Mountains
      Grand Canyon
      The USA really has a lot to offer… 👍
