I Turned My Grandma’s Old Van Into A Mobile Home So I Could Travel Across North America

Were the wild things are. Finding some remote locations in Washington - I Turned My Grandma’s Old Van Into A Mobile Home So I Could Travel Across North America

You don’t need to plan an elaborate vacation to end up at a beautiful destination. Simply pack up your car, drive for a few hours and I guarantee you will find somewhere incredible! This has been one of the main messages I’ve tried to relay to people after converting my Grandmother’s old camper van into a custom “Adventure Mobile” and traveling around the country for almost a year and a half.

Of course those foreign countries and tropical islands and are beautiful and should be visited if you get the opportunity but don’t forget about all of those amazing places in your own backyard. Whether you are hiking through the backcountry, wandering in National Parks or searching for secret waterfalls there are an endless amount of adventures out there to be had.

The inspiration for creating these images comes from many different platforms but the biggest factor is admiring the landscape I’m surrounded by at the time. Adding a human element to the images helps capture the emotion and overall grandeur of the scene, which I think people can relate to and picture themselves in. Overall, I hope that by constantly pushing myself and the boundaries of my craft I can encourage others to do the same. Get out there!
