Diary of a Van Dweller

Ever wondered what Nomadic life on the road is really like? Forget the polished #vanlife you see on socials—this is about real stories from real people. Join me as I share tales from my six years living in a converted ambulance. I’ll also be bringing in voices from fellow, vanlifers, road adventurers, nomads & overlanders, offering you their honest experiences. Get ready for raw and authentic stories about park-ups in unexpected places, unforgettable encounters, lasting friendships, hilarious mistakes, bathroom mishaps, and even the occasional crash. It’s all here—the highs, the lows, and everything in between. Buckle up for the ride. This is van life, unfiltered and unapologetic.

Welcome to Diary of a Van Dweller.In this podcast we will delve into stories from the road. Not the glamourised "instagramable" stories, but the real stories from real vanlifers, nomads & travellers, including myself.
Late 2017, I knew something was wrong and that I needed a gearshift in my life but I wasn't sure what.This feeling lead me to a dream of leaving my job and touring around in a self-built campervan. My choice of van was... a little different.

You don't have to be a van dweller, Trucks, busses, overlanders, 4x4 or even travellers on foot are welcome if you have a story to tell.

It can be anything you like, a road trip that went right or wrong, a breakdown, a weird encounter, a meeting of new friends or getting lost/stuck.
