50 + INSPIRATIONAL VAN LIFE QUOTES

To Inspire You To Live A Minimalist Adventurous Lifestyle

 Since we decided to start our van conversion to jump into van life, I can’t seem to think about anything else. I’m too excited for this new experience and, although I know that it’s not all wonderful and amazing as shown on social media websites, I’m 100% ready for this new adventure.

But what is, exactly, van life?

It’s a lifestyle, and the truth is it’s not for everyone. Despite the advantages, like a simpler lifestyle and the possibility to live at low cost and experience more contact with nature, living full time in a tiny space can be difficult. However, more and more people jumped into this new kind of life, especially after the COVID-19 pandemic. This is easily explained by the fact that a campervan allows you to bring your home with you, travel at a low cost, and enjoy more freedom after the numerous lockdowns. And let’s be honest, who doesn’t need that?

So, below you will find some of the best van life quotes, that may inspire you to join this lifestyle (if you haven’t already!)
