Wir haben sehr darauf geachtet, dass auch ein paar echte Überraschungen dabei sind. Natürlich haben wir auch ein paar starke Vorschläge fürs Bikepacking.Wir hoffen, dass euch die Folge gefallen hat.

In dieser Folge trifft Nele auf Chris vom Team Street Dogs, den Zoe – ihres Zeichens neugieriger CamperStyle-Hund – zufällig auf der Touristik & Caravaning Leipzig „erschnüffelt“ hat. Ein Glücksfall, denn Chris verbindet 25 Jahre Hundetraining mit Vanlife und hat ein ganz besonderes Konzept für Messebesucher:innen und ihre Vierbeiner entwickelt: eine Mischung aus Hunde-Lounge, Suchspielen und echter Entspannung im Messetrubel. Außerdem geht es um Mantrailing, die Frage, welche Hunde dafür geeignet sind, wie man als Anfänger:in einsteigt und warum die gemeinsame Sucharbeit so gut für Bindung, Selbstvertrauen und Angstabbau ist.

In this episode of Busy Gallivanting, I'm joined by Fiorella Yriberry — the creator behind @growingslowandwild — to talk about what a slow and wild nomadic lifestyle really looks like. After five years of full-time RV living, she's learned how van life can offer freedom, comfort, and a deep connection to nature, all while navigating remote work, community, and the emotional ups and downs of life on the road.We dive into how she and her husband went from college graduates to RV builders, what they learned from designing their own rolling tiny home, and why national parks, quiet campsites, and long drives have become the backdrop to some of their most meaningful travel experiences. If you've ever been curious about van life, building an RV, or embracing a more flexible way of traveling, this episode is full of practical insight and personal reflection.Fiorella also shares the real side of nomadic living — the loneliness, the freedom, the people you meet along the way — and offers tips for anyone considering renting an RV, trying a road trip, or setting up remote work from the wild.

Vanja Budde lebt auf Asphalt, in Wäldern und auf Campingplätzen. Weil sie unter chronischem Fernweh leidet, hat sie vor fünf Jahren das Leben an einem festen Ort gegen ein mobiles Heim eingetauscht. Mit ihrem Wohnmobil reist sie durch Europa, arbeitet von unterwegs und genießt das Gefühl von Unvorhersehbarkeit.

Then it's back to London, a farewell to our beloved campervan, on to Singapore for a few days and finally we end up back home in Perth, Australia, after six months away. What a strange feeling! This is the sixth part of a monthly, six-episode series celebrating the fact that exactly 40 years ago this year, my family and I spent six months in a striped motorhome travelling around Europe.

Get in losers, we're going…who knows where?! If you're anything like us, dear cultie, then the current state of the world might have you feeling a wee bit…lost? Well, this week's cult will have you “finding yourself” and dangling the /real/ ticket to true freedom and oneness with the earth. That's right, the cult of #VanLife promises salvation can be yours at the low low price of a down payment on a Sprinter — so long as you can hang when your pee bucket overfloweth. The Pandemic:tm: instilled an unshakeable sense of wanderlust and affinity for faux-sipping-coffee-in-nature-candids in both the social media feeds and hearts of THOUSANDS, but as the #VanLife trendscape begins to skew towards de-influence (and even sometimes *warnings*), we can't help but wonder if life on the wide open road is as freeing as it looks, or if culty secrets lie in wait just beyond the interstate… Amanda and Reese enlisted IRL Van Lifer Bella Janssen (@thelonesol) to hop in the driver's seat and reveal the reality of living on the road.

In this episode of the Van Life Diaries: Europe 1985, we move on to Scandinavia. Starting off in Denmark, we looked for Lego, noticed the size of the Little Mermaid, and enjoyed spending time in Copenhagen. From Denmark it was a short ferry ride to Sweden, and while my Dad and I muse that we don't have many strong memories from our time there, my Mum's diary does the heavy lifting contributing details about our time in some seaside islands, followed by Stockholm, and an intriguing visit to a timber mill area. Finally, we chat about how much we loved Norway, including time in Oslo, the fjords and playing badminton in Bergen. This is the fifth part of a monthly, six-episode series celebrating the fact that exactly 40 years ago this year, my family and I spent six months in a striped motorhome travelling around Europe.

This week we're joined by Greg Heil, Managing Editor at Singletracks. Over the years, Greg has shared stories from trails all over North America—and for two of those years, he was doing it all while living full-time on the road in a van.We're going to talk about what that experience was like: the incredible places he rode, the highs and lows of vanlife, and what ultimately led him to settle down again. Whether you've been dreaming of hitting the road yourself or you're just curious about what it takes to live that lifestyle, there's a lot to learn here.What inspired you to hit the road and live out of a van full-time in the first place?Tell us about your van setup—what kind of vehicle were you working with, and how did you configure it for full-time living, working, and mountain biking?Were there any must-have upgrades or clever hacks that made life easier?How did you manage your work as a writer and editor while constantly on the move?Were there any unexpected gems—places that surprised you or exceeded your expectations? What about well-known spots you ended up leaving early?What were some of the biggest challenges you faced?Are there any common mistakes people make when they're just starting out?After a couple of years on the road, you decided to settle in one place again. What led to that decision?What's one thing you packed in the van that you never ended up using?What's one item you couldn't live without on the road?This episode is sponsored by Greater Sandpoint Chamber of Commerce.If you're looking for your next mountain bike destination that offers just about everything, put Sandpoint, Idaho at the top of your list!
