Road Trip Finishing Three Years of Full Time Van Life

After three incredible years of living full-time in my vans, I’ll sadly be closing this chapter of my life and moving back into an apartment. I was lucky enough to pour my heart and soul into two beautiful builds, and every adventure I had with them was unforgettable.

I recently received my dream job offer in NYC, so I’ll be leaving van life behind at the end of this month. Rigby, my current build, will carry me through until my two-day road trip in a sedan, (which will feel like such a downgrade).

I want to take a moment to thank this community. Being able to share my builds, experiences, and questions here has meant more than I can express. To the few of you I got to meet in person, it was amazing connecting with like-minded people.

Van life will always hold a special place in my heart, and I’ll be following along from my cramped NYC apartment as this incredible community continues to inspire me and make me a little jealous. Good luck to all of you, and if anyone ever needs advice on electrical, plumbing, or anything else, I have two builds under my belt and would be more than happy to help.

The crystal special edition with the LAMY stylus <3

It's actually not a ReMarkable. It's the Supernote Crystal Nomad edition.

Coveting one atm. It's one of the nicer builds on the market - and I'm a LAMY fan.

You have great taste and I really enjoyed your wine-o mock-up.

You're living the dream, all the luck with your future in NYC :D

Thank you and best of luck with your build stranger! I’m sure it’s gonna turn out great.
