Sponsors
Special thanks to all our sponsors! Please pay them a visit.
We consider everybody a sponsor that has helped us with goods or services without charging us the full rate.
Waterfamily
We found their shop in Shiraz and could buy two new housings for our water filters. The owner speaks English very well and knows all about water filter systems. He and his team were really helpful.
fit service
The best place ever to wash your car for 17 days before shipping it to Australia! 😀 Thanks so much to the manager and the whole team from fit service in Vladivostok to offer us their place, tools, space and help!
Bergegurte
Christoph from bergegurte.org helped us out with great counsel about lashing straps. We ordered towlines and other stuff in his shop – and were lucky to meet him in person during the Buschtaxi Meeting.
