We tend to focus mostly on human powered adventures here at Wend, but this one was just too crazy to pass up: the Netherlands to Antarctica by tractor. WTF? No, we’re not making this up.
Dutch actress Manon Ossevoortis is the adventurer behind the Southpole Expedition, riding a tractor from the Netherlands to South Africa, and then getting on a boat to Antarctica (it’s difficult to get tractors across water you know). How long does it take to drive a tractor from Europe to the southern tip of Africa? A good 3 and a half years… (just in case this post inspired you to do something equally crazy and you were curious about the potential time investment)
Ossevoortis is currently setting up the polar leg of her expedition, you can follow the exploits on her blog.
