An adorable story caught our attention on Tuesday morning and it involves a German post-doctorate student at the King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST) and her parents love. 

A post-doctorate student, Isabelle Schulz, who has been in KAUST for the last four years was visited by her parents from Germany. 

Sounds like a normal tale, right?

Except they did it by CAR ride that took 9,000 kilometres from Germany to Thuwal.

If that’s not love, we don’t know what is.

This was all possible thanks to their 12-year-old trustworthy Cruiser and their love for travel and exploration

Her parents Manfred and Doris were always globetrotting around the world and according to KAUST News, they even moved from Switzerland to Riyadh many years ago, then to Algeria. Young Isabelle took a liking with traveling through North Africa and the Middle East so she decided to come back to the Kingdom when an opportunity presented itself. 

An incredible 21-day journey showing a different type of traveling 

There were two parts to Manfred and Doris’ trip; the first part involved driving through Europe and the second part through the Middle East to Dubai and from the UAE all the way to Riyadh. The entire trip, reaching their daughter’s location in KAUST took 21 days in total. 

How adorable is this family?
