About this blog

Welcome to Dusted Adventures.

After several years of putting up with the stress and strain of the corporate world, handling the hussle and bustle of the city life, and ignoring a yearning to explore greater Africa, we've decided to reward ourselves with the journey of a lifetime.

The Du Plessis and Husted gang will travel from Cape Town to Ethiopia, and back again, over a period six months. Friends and family will meet up with us from time to time on route, and we will also make contact with missionary friends in various countries.

Watch this space for updates on all the high's and low's, and to see whether or not our vehicles and personalities have what it takes to return safely and still of sound mind.
