A travel-mad man is hitchhiking 10,000 miles from England to South Africa.

Timo De Jong, 25, set off on his mammoth journey on February 11 and is currently in Toulouse, France.

He is about 1,000 miles into his journey, which he has estimated will take roughly a year.

Timo finished school in 2017 and has been travelling ever since - hitchhiking throughout places like Japan and Central America.
