And we’re back on the road! 🙌
.
It always takes us a full day of living in the van to feel settled in again. Clean laundry, random items shoved in bags, and food from the grocery store all need to put away in their designated places. When living in a space this small, it really makes a difference to have everything where it’s suppose to go.
.
So our first stop was one we’ve spent some time at before. We knew it would be a good spot for the cats as well.
.
And how does it feel to be out again? It feels like home. ❤️

When we are settled at a camp spot and it feels safe, we let the cats roam freely. They both check in on us multiple times a day and respond to our clicker calls and to my sorry attempts at whistling. Except for last Saturday.
.
For the past couple days, Toby’s abdomen has been a little sore. After he jumped out of the van that morning, he didn’t check on us at all nor respond to our calls. Twin was also acting strangely by staying closer than usual.
.
Dan and I walked through fields of tall grass, up hillsides, near neighbors’ barns and the streets in the late afternoon. At dusk, we noticed a fox and our thoughts went to a dark place.
.
When the sun slid beyond the horizon and the brisk evening air entered the van, we reluctantly closed the van with one cat missing. We kept checking outside in the dark and after 14 hours, Toby came back. We lifted him into the van, he slowly made his way to our bed and remained there for hours until we could take him to the vet.
.
He most likely ate something poisonous at our last camp spot and maybe hid somewhere to die that day. After multiple injections, he’s now on the mend and slowly showing signs of his old snuggly self again.

So we’ve stepped up our anti-condensation game. Hopefully between our diesel heater, dehumidifier, rooftop fans and anti-condensation mats under our mattresses, we won’t have to worry too much about mold. Usually this isn’t an issue because we are always on the move and in warmer/drier winter climates.

Oh and speaking of being on the move, next week we head out in the van to do a border run for our US-plated van and see how this rambunctious kittens in a van thing works out.

And we’re off! I didn’t talk about this trip here because I was afraid to jinx it, that some problem would come up with the bus and that we wouldn’t be able to leave. You see, I’ve been counting the days for months…
We’re heading to the Yukon for a month and I can’t wait.
We’re going up the Stewart-Cassiar, taking our time to fill our senses with the northern wilderness we’ve missed dearly. I can’t wait to find silence, although it might come with mozzies white noise as I’ve heard they’re pretty bad this year…!
We’ll be back at our beautiful campsite in Squamish in September.

This week capusedan & lboogie305 showed us their amazing tiny home on wheels. 🚌

When we exchanged our wedding vows, we’re sure we didn’t see ourselves spending our 19th anniversary cleaning and packing up our home on wheels. But that’s exactly what we did and we wouldn’t have changed a thing. In a couple days, we will say goodbye to the island we’ve called home for all these months for a little loop around Croatia and then finally across some borders this summer. Thanks for photo, mali.mish.ava ❤️

Hi. Remember us? Full-time wanderers not wandering very far? Well, hopefully that’s about to change. 🤞 This June we are planning on traveling within Croatia. Visiting some of our favorite spots and hopefully some new ones too. And then in July, if borders become easier to cross and if we feel like it’s safe for our little family, we will continue our travel plans from last year. We will start in Ireland and the UK, and then meander down the coasts of France, Spain and Portugal.
We would love it if you shared your favorite spots with us :)

Here it is! It took a while, but we have finally finished the massive cabinet against our new wall in Bruce. Hellooo extra storage 😍 #vanlife

Whether you're looking for a weekend getaway or embarking on the Great American Road Trip, proper storage is key to a successful campervan trip. There is plenty of storage to fully stock your kitchen with all the necessary cookware and dishes. Keep your clothes out of the way and organized in the closet and over-head cabinets. Under-bench storage can accommodate a small cartridge toilet, in case of emergencies. All drawers and doors come with manual or automatic latch systems, to ensure cargo stays quiet and secure while driving.

“Our beautiful home on wheels.
🚐
Sometimes I have to pinch myself that this is actually where we live. Sure, it’s a tiny space, but it’s homey, and it’s OURS and we love it.
🚐
Our home has everything we need, and nothing we don’t.
🚐
Many of our friends thought we were mad when we said we were going to move into a van, but I’m sure some are secretly envious. But here’s the thing: if we can do it, anyone can!
🚐
Live is short; if you want to do something, do it now, tomorrow isn’t guaranteed.
🚐” 🤩🤩🤩👏
