First Impressions of VAN LIFE in Canada? Two Brits in Nova Scotia! (Peggy’s Cove & Lunenburg)
Well, this is it! Our road trip across the Americas starts here. This past summer has been a difficult one, and we're both feeling ready for a new adventure and a fresh start. We shipped Sophia to Halifax, picked her up and soon began getting reacquainted with our tiny home on wheels after 4 weeks apart. This is the first time either of us has been to Canada and we can't wait to get to know this country more. We're kicking off the road trip in Nova Scotia, one of the beautiful Maritime Provinces, with some overly friendly locals....

↠ A BIT ABOUT US
We're Chesca and Ben, and with our two pups River & Scout (🐶 🐶 ) we live and travel full-time in our self converted sprinter van, Sophia. We spent the past 2 years road tripping as much of Europe as we could, from the wild coasts of Portugal to the Syrian border in Turkey, tackling lockdowns and a van re-build along the way. But now, we're feeling like a new challenge. In the summer of 2022, we'll be shipping our van from the UK to Canada, on a mission to drive her all the way to Mexico baby! 🇲🇽 🌵
