Yep. After watching the video, we realized there’s an easier way to do this. 😂

So whenever we get back to the van, we’ll fix it.

But honestly, that feels pretty appropriate.

Living in a van is really not that different from living anywhere else. There is always something to repair, improve, reorganize, rethink, or make work just a little bit better.

Home improvements follow you everywhere.

And so can stress.

Changing where you live doesn’t automatically change how you live.

For us, vanlife has never really been about escaping normal life. It’s about being more intentional with the life we already have. Paying attention to what works, changing what doesn’t, and hopefully making the space around us feel a little more like us along the way.

This time, that meant replacing eight-year-old awning guy lines.

And yes… the fact that the Rollercam® blue matches the SlackerVan perfectly makes us ridiculously happy. 💙🧡

We honestly can’t remember where we were headed… but we need to admit that we have done this more than once!

Here is our complete overlanding skincare routine. 😂

Step one: Tub O' Towels mechanic wipes.
Step two: there no step 2! 😏🤣

We wonder if Cindy Cynthia Tarbox Schneidau from would agree with us? 😅🤣

Would you?

Would you modify your van so you could access your roof boxes from the inside, without ever needing a ladder?

We did. And we love it.

Cutting into the roof gave us easy access to the storage above, but it also gave us a lot more than that.

We now have standing height in our living space, better upward ventilation while cooking, and one of our favorite bonus… the ability to stargaze from our bed.

The has never been a project. It's been an experiment.

For the past nine years we've tested ideas, broken things, redesigned systems, and shared what we've learned with the overlanding community.

This van isn't trying to be perfect.

It's trying to answer one question:

How much adventure can you fit into 66 square feet?

We’ve been having a blast at Overland Expo this summer. Meeting extraordinary travelers and adventurers has completely re-inspired us to get the back on the road.

One of those people is the legendary Patty Upton TNT-Tried n True.

Patty and her late husband, Loren, earned a Guinness World Record for completing the first all-land crossing of the Darién Gap by a single motor vehicle. It took them 741 days to travel just 125 miles through the roadless jungle in their 1966 Jeep CJ-5, the Sand Ship Discovery Patty Upton

And apparently once wasn’t enough! They later returned and crossed the Darién Gap again on a two-wheel-drive Rokon motorcycle!

You can learn more about their first crossing in Patty’s book “Road’s End to Road’s End: The Epic Voyage of the Sand Ship Discovery”.

Or, even better, come meet Patty and many other incredible travelers in person at Overland Expo®. The vehicles may bring us together, but it’s the people and their stories that keep inspiring us to explore farther.

We’ll be at Overland Expo Mountain West in Loveland, CO! August 21–23

We’ll be teaching Slackline Yoga, chair Yoga and sharing our many tips and tricks for life on the road in a tiny old vehicle.

The SlackerVan may not be quite as tiny or as old as the Sand Ship Discovery, but we hope it proves to be half as mighty!

Come find us in Colorado!

Staying clean and organized in a tiny home on wheels takes constant effort. The smaller the space, the faster it gets messy. Therefore, the more intentional you have to be about every little system.

One of our favorite van life hacks? ✂️
Cutting a Scott Shop Towel into thirds.

They last much longer than regular paper towels, don’t leave little bits of lint everywhere, and help us use less with each cleanup. It’s a small change, but when you live in just 66 square feet, the little things add up.

We’re always looking for ways to keep the van tidy while creating less waste. What do you think about this hack?

Would you give this a try?
Or do you have another cleaning hack we should try?

Fall is just around the corner… what are your winter plans? 🍂

Ours include hosting our YogaSlackers retreat in Thailand, spending time exploring Asia, and beginning to plan a future drive to Brazil in the .

Adventures are already on the calendar yet Others begin as a conversation, a map, and a slightly unreasonable or even ridiculous idea.

Where will winter take you?
