The Vanlife in Pictures

Life is about collecting memories, not things.

The best way to see the world is not to jet in and out of destinations, but to travel through the changing landscapes, smelling the smells, hiking the mountains, swimming beneath waterfalls, getting to know the people, making friends, tasting the local food, and experiencing the awe of the night constellations.

Australia is a great country to explore in a campervan. You can hire a campervan for road trips shorter than three months. Any longer and you’re better of buying a used campervan and selling it back afterwards.
