Lake Como…Home to beautiful lakeside villages, Italian culture, food, wine and blissful relaxation. The perfect mix for a rad (and romantic) weekend getaway. Why? Because it’s freekin EPIC and freekin BEAUTIFUL too. Yes I’m talking about Lake Como…you know, the place where George Clooney has a home, where Brad pit enjoys his vacays and where…
One of the most picturesque and charming villages in France…Lac Annecy, oh what a treat. Picture a lake that looks remarkably like lake Wanaka in the South Island of New Zealand, but instead located in the incredible French Alps. With the lakeside town full of winding canals, cute cobbled streets and pastel coloured houses, you can expect…
Little update, while living in this home on wheels, Bryn renovated it into the best little space we came to know. In this post, we’ve included photos from both pre renovation and after renovation because our experiences in both we’re amazing. We’ve also now sold the van too 😢 We hope she’s out there in…
After watching the Quicksilver pro and not having a much of a plan, Leah and I decided we’d give Hossegor a good go and stick around for a while. The surf was on and off for a few days after the tournament and it always seemed like the weekends would pump. We settled right into…
6am we pack up and head back towards the west coast. Bryn can’t even go 3 days without a surf, the beauty of van life though right? We’re headed for Biarritz, a 5 hour drive from Madrid, over the border and into France. With our fav playlist cranking tunes on the speaker (The American Pie…

110 clicks down the highway and we were off. Cruising in Cassie like we always do, head out the window getting some maori air con and everything looking good. Just left the Spanish coast and headed for Porto. The second largest city of Portugal and ready for some Portuguese waves. Check out Leahs blog on…
We’re crossing the border into Portugal and I’m thinking…shit I dont actually know a whole lot about this country. Where should we go? How do you say thankyou? Is the language that much different to Spain? Are the people nice? Thoughts were running through my head as I looked at the map and tried to…
Ola Amigos! We’ve arrived in Spain, although you wouldn’t know it yet, it looks the same as France did! But the language is a sure sign that you’ve crossed the border and are in new territory woohoo! There wasn’t even a border crossing, we literally drove over a bridge and boom the country changed and…
