Quick recap: When the pandemic hit last March, we decided to play safe and head back from Mexico (you’ll find our Mexico Vanlife Guide here: faroutride.com/mexico):

Covid-19 Mexico to Canada

With all the amenities most likely shutting down (public showers, laundromats, etc), we rented a townhouse in Squamish. We won’t lie, we really appreciated the space and how simple it is to live in an apartment; it was a good change for us, so we might repeat that for a month or two each year. We did a VanLife vs HouseLife in our last Tales From The Road (faroutride.com/april-2020).

March – June

We ended up staying three months at the apartment. There’s no shortage of things to do in the Sea-To-Sky corridor…

(Yeah it’s a real place we swear)

For the following months, we’ll be travelling with our friends Eric and Yuka. Like us, they live full time in their van and they’re obsessed with mountain biking. They’re both pro YouTubers and their respective channel features the best mountain-biking content on the tube (Totally unbiased opinion. Hey, 260,000 followers can’t be wrong! 😉 ).

Nice to Meet You.

About-Us-Narrow

Hello! We’re Isabelle and Antoine.

In 2017, we sold our house (and everything in it), quit our engineering careers, and moved into our self-built campervan. Every day is an opportunity for a new adventure... We’re chasing our dreams, and hopefully it inspires others to do the same!
