We are Emma and Louise. We quit our jobs in March 2019 and have been travelling in our converted Iveco Daily ever since. Travel for us is so much fun but also is teaching us so much!
Driving a 600 mile round trip, we brought her in January already converted. We haven’t changed very much so far, aside from fitting an inverter and split relay charger and a few shelves. Although we had a a few teething issues such as a flat turbo, she is a superstar. She has looked after us very well.
Travel, to us, is about exploration and finding out about the areas. So far have been up as far as Yorkshire in the north, Norfolk coast in the east, Somerset in the south and Gower Peninsular in the west. We have covered a fair amount of Wales and also been featured on Career Break Kate’s website!
Getting involved in almost any activity we have so far kayaked, cycled, hiked, quad biked and horse ridden. Its not just about the transport, its about the adventure. Get out of your comfort zone and seeing what you are really capable of doing!

Tell me about traveling around in this van. It is something I have been thinking about as of late…Very cool!
Well, in a nutshell, we bought a van in January, quit our jobs in march and have been touring since then (www.vanlifediary.com) we have travelled from one end of the country to the other but there is so much to see we haven’t made it any further (except a ‘holiday’ in Spain for a week by aeroplane)
