A picture of The Beast, a Volvo N10 truck on a beach, silhouetted at sunset, alongside a copy of the book Building The Beast: How (Not) To Build An Overland Camper with its 3 book awards beneath. Tthe caption 'The Comic Memoir of a Crazy Idea' with bullet points 1. Buy a 24.5-tonn truck blind off the internet and 2. Convert into an off-grid camper

On Friday 13th December 2019, I uttered something to my husband that would change our lives forever.
“I’ve had enough of Britain, let’s go to Mongolia!”
It seemed unlikely that our caravan, ‘Kismet’ would make it across the Gobi Desert. A month later, we bought a 24.5-tonne truck blind off the internet to convert into an off-grid home-on-wheels fit to drive there.
We named her The Beast.
The Wayward Truck Series follows her adventures.

The comic memoir of a crazy idea. The true story of how one married couple bought a 24.5-tonne ex-army truck blind off the internet to convert into an off-grid home-on-wheels. Their plan: to drive to Mongolia with their four pups in tow.
