Driving Around the World in a 20-Year-Old Motorhome: Tread the Globe’s Epic Journey

Ever wondered what it takes to drive around the world in a motorhome? In this episode of the Motorhome Matt Podcast, Matt chats with Chris and Marianne from Tread the Globe, who left behind the 9-to-5 to explore the planet in their 20-year-old Fiat Ducato Adria Twin campervan. What began as a European road trip soon turned into an epic and inspiring global adventure across continents, weather extremes, and even a lockdown in a Turkish car park. They share how they prepared their van for long-distance overlanding, how they handled complex travel logistics like motorhome insurance abroad, and how their YouTube channel accidentally turned into a global community, with real-world impact. Think: saving sea turtles, inspiring thousands, and proving you don't need the latest van to live the dream. Matt and Keith also tackle your listener questions, including how to measure the true height of your motorhome, whether there are cleaner, greener ways to dispose of black and grey waste in van life, and a great story about affordable new-for-old motorhome insurance that might save you money. Plus, get a glimpse at what Chris and Marianne have planned next, a multi-year overland trek in their new truck camper, Trevor. This one’s got inspiration, insight, and just enough chaos to remind you why we all love life on the road. ✅ MOTORHOME MATT APPROVED Services, products and educational resources used and approved by Motorhome Matt mhmp.info/approved 🛡️ 15% OFF INSURANCE mhmp.info/ripeinsurance 📲 NORD VPN - GET 4 MONTHS FREE https://nordvpn.com/motorhomematt ❓ ASK MATT mhmp.info/askmatt 🗓️ UPCOMING EVENTS mhmp.info/events 📹 WATCH ON YOUTUBE mhmp.info/watch 💬 LEAVE A REVIEW mhmp.info/review The Motorhome Matt podcast is brought to you by That Leisure Shop, camping and leisure vehicle accessory specialists. 10% off your first order with the code MOTORHOMEMATT.
