When I first met Laurel she was living in an almost empty van, in the process of making it into her full-time home. The next time I caught up with her, she had a bed, a kitchen and… a home! So in this post I’ll introduce you to Laurel and her van. Still a work […]

Van tour: He lives by the woods in his £1500 van – in England – in winter
I met Finn in Hungary whilst helping to build the SUN festival (my first summer on the road) and now he’s a good friend. And he’s just bought a van! He’s been living in it through the winter in England. Note: I meant to post this 2 months ago. Oops. So here’s a tour of […]
Van tour: Phil’s DIY camper – but wait till you see the shower
When you’re converting a van into your home, finding different ways to use every day items goes a long way. It helps to be constantly looking around and asking yourself ‘what can I use that for?’ or ‘how can I adapt this to make it work in my van?’ That’s what Phil did. After 5 […]

Van tour: Mike and Sophie from Relaxedpace
I left the Peloponnese (see best bits) and met with some other vanners: Mike (from L.A.) and Sophie (from London). They spent last Summer in England converting their van, and are finally on the road… I think these two were the first actual readers of this blog, like a year ago. It was really good to finally meet you […]
A day in the van – A 2 minute video
The last few weeks in the van with Finn have just fully revolved around music. It’s exactly how I always wanted every day to be: making weird music, sharing new music and messing about on new instruments I can’t play. I teach Finn some Ableton and he teaches me music theory. I filmed for a […]
