Engku Mohammad Hadri Engku Hassan met his fiancée online in 2007 and two years later, he flew to Germany to confess his love with a simple rose and letter.
According to a Facebook post by Hayashi86, his expedition started in Putrajaya on 19 August
He arrived at the Thai border on the morning of 21 August, updating followers of his journey via Instagram.
Hadri will be driving across 25 countries including China, Mongolia, Latvia, and Russia before reaching Germany
The 34-year-old is travelling with two co-drivers in the Toyota AE86 because of its reliability and durability.
The tour is estimated to cost RM250,000 and will take about three months.
In an interview with Malay Mail, Hadri's friend said that Hadri's father had helped plan the driving routes and calculate the petrol consumption to efficiently complete the journey.
