Cerne Abbas and its Giant

The Cerne Abbas Giant in Dorset is one of the UK’s most well known chalk figures. It draws people from all across the country to the south of England to stand at this hill god’s feet. Including us - and a coach load of people on an early Sunday morning.

Horizons

Tolerating uncertainty is tough enough in our every day lives and it often seems magnified if your chosen way of life is an alternative one. Van Life, Vandwelling, a home on wheels or whatever you want to call it often makes us question what exactly it is that makes us call something home.

A Love Letter to Campsites

I love campsites - they are so much more than just a place to park your van and pitch your tent. We need to stop thinking of them as a barrier to wildness and start looking at them as a gateway to it.

Lepe Country Park

Does anyone ever really need an excuse for a walk along the beach?

Living close to the Solent means that the sea is never far away and a short stroll is always accessible and there are always plenty of treasures to be found.

Saving for Vanlife

Travelling in a van is one way to cut the costs of your travels - but how can you save even more on the road and extend your vanlife dream for longer. This blog looks at how to budget for your trip and save money on the road.

A Van Life Philosophy

Time spent on the road not gifted us stunning scenery and adventure, it also gifted us with a philosophy fit for everyday life. Surely this new found vanlife attitude is one that can be adapted to be used everyday.

The Lower Test in Totton

Managed by the Hampshire and Isle of Wight Wildlife Trust, the Lower Test marshes are a natural gem in an urban setting. In this mix of reed beds, salt marsh and flood plain wildlife goes about its business alongside humans. So, next time you’re in Totton i’d pop in for a visit.

Our Travel Update

One thing you learn very quickly living on the road, is that nothing goes to plan. You always need to be prepared for whatever comes your way - because when it happens it will happen in the most of dramatic, unexpected ways.
