55+ Gift Ideas Van Lifers Actually Want


Hey Reader,

Our campervan is FULL of stuff. Sometimes, I wonder how we got so much stuff, and how it all fits in such a small space.

So when someone asks me what I want for Christmas or my birthday, my answer is usually: "Not more stuff!"

In this spirit of less is more when it comes to buying a van lifer something, I've put together a post with over 55 gift ideas for that van life traveler.

It’s made by Wingamm and is called the Oasi 610. Have you ever seen a 20 foot motorhome with a dry bath and a garage that can...

Hey Reader! When we first cast off on our CT-41 sailboat headed down to Mexico in 2020, we were so excited.
