Mini Camper Van Kitchen Set Up
Like many other minivan campers, we turned the van’s trunk space into a small kitchen that would equip with all the necessities for us to make a nice meal. The idea is pretty simple. We need some counter space for prepping food, cooking and storage spaces for food and water. We browsed through many setups…
Camping and Climbing at Alabama Hills

Daily life on the road
It’s been two months on the road since we left and we are slowly getting used to this van life and have a daily routine going. I’d say weather determines the most on what we do on a daily basis. When we left in August, it was summer time. We started in Northern California where…
