World Tour by Ford Tourist Reaches Australia
Theo Steenkamp, a Dutch world traveler, completed a long Ford car voyage from Rotterdam to Australia aboard the Nieuw Holland. He detailed rough roads in European Turkey and Baluchistan, a 40 ft plunge in Persia, hospital stay after drinking bad water, and generous help from police and locals. His journey spanned Europe, Asia, India, Sumatra, Bali, and Java before joining the Nieuw Holland for Australia. He praised Ford service but warned the trip is lonely and hard on a driver.
