VanLife – Stories From The Road follows people who have chosen to live their life in a van. It’s about why, how and what they are doing whilst living the VanLife. It’s a glimpse at the groundswell movement that is capturing Millennials across the globe. The choice to live small! This five-part character-driven series begins in Australia and transverses the world.
These stories explore personal journeys, goals and aspirations. There is love, sadness, failure, success and adventure. It is intimate, intrusive, touching, and at times simply beautiful. These stories unfold on roads travelled and roads unknown. From sandy shores, to wild deserts, mountain scapes and cities rich in culture.
Over the course of the series we meet photographers, social influencers, musicians, various artisans and adventurers and we do all this against the cinematic backdrop of different countries.
They are not saying VanLife is the answer, however, VanLife has become the mega-symbol of experiential, simple living, and for this reason it’s contagiously digestible. Previous generations gave them an out-of-control world, and VanLife is their rebuttal.
These are their stories from the road and this is your glimpse into its vastness.
