RE: Spending the Canadian Winter in a Van

in TravelFeed3 years ago

This is basically my dream lol - vanlife just seems so cool, if money wasnt an issue i would definitely do this. Would definitely go 4x4 though and go out having fun in the show but looks like you do with skis and snowboards.

Sort:  

It definitely has its perks and fun adventures. Once we saved up enough to do the trip we have found it cheaper than the rent we were paying for our apartment in Vancouver. But depends what you like to do and what you spend money on too.
A 4x4 trip would be great! We hope to do the 4x4 around Australia when we eventually move back. I hope you get to live that vanlife dream one day :)

Yeah I can definitely see that it would be a cheaper way of life but I guess you need to still main an income - for me at least. I teach so would be difficult to manage the two unless I moved into online teaching where pay is considerably lower. I follow a lot of YouTube channels of 4x4 groups in Aus and it looks amazing to be able to drive through the outback on long extended trips.

Yes, for sure. We both worked and saved for about 3 years before we moved into the van, so I agree, unless you have a job you can do remotely you do need to take the time to save. Who knows, maybe we'll all get rich from Hive haha!
