VAN LIFE AFRICA IS OVER (this is how it ended)
After 3 years of #vanlife in Morocco, this is how it ended. To get a 1 year supply of Vitamin D + 5 individual travel packs FREE with your first purchase, go to https://athleticgreens.com/eamonandbec
We absolutely love living in our van in Morocco. It is a place with diverse landscapes (hello Sahara desert 😍 ), amazing culture and people, and even more importantly... a place we've returned to so many times now that we feel at home here. But today is all about our decision to finally leave, how it ended and enjoying our last moments, days and miles spent here in Africa.

We Rescued Our Abandoned Van from Africa (again)
After 1 year away from our van (again), we finally fly back to Morocco to rescue it! But, everything's a mess 😳 To get a 1 year supply of Vitamin D + 5 individual travel packs FREE with your first purchase, go to https://athleticgreens.com/eamonandbec
The first time we abandoned this van was in March of 2020 during the height of the Covid-19 pandemic. We returned at the end of 2021 to find our tiny home parked exactly as we’d left it (much to our surprise!). We began our victory lap through Morocco and flew home for what we thought would be a quick breast surgery… turns out I had stage 3 breast cancer.

25:17 SURF'S UP 🏄♀️
In 2017 we bought our first sprinter van and spent 30 days renovating it into our dream tiny home. The plan was to van life around the world and we'd made it all the way from Canada to Africa. Fast forward to COVID...us abandoning our van in a Moroccan parking lot, flying home to Canada, converting yet another van, and then moving to our cabin in the woods.
We've always envisioned moving into the woods by the lake and building our dream tiny cabin as a home base for us to come back to in between our international van life travels. With our sights set on returning to Morocco (after this hard year of cancer treatment), we thought it was time we dust off our van life skills. So, we squeeze 4 people into our sprinter van conversion for 48 hours! -

After 1 year away from #vanlife we are back for a road trip to NYC!! This time... we've got our 100LB dog with us. Living in 60 sq-ft is tough for two adult humans so adding a human-sized dog should get interesting. The goal? We'd love for Oso to fall in love with living in a van so we can all move in full-time and travel together!
