And so it begins - a new (vanlife) start

Hi, I’m Hamish. I’ve wanted to get myself a van and convert it for a while, and the opportunity has now appeared.
I’m 53, no partner or kids, so the world is mine to travel, see, experience and learn.
I’ve some ideas of what I want, what I need inside the van and where I want my first few trips to go.
Looking at a Ford Transit L3H2, now to dive into this community and YouTube and begin to see what else is needed.
My motivation is

  1. I run a podcast talking about overcoming life changes - burnout, addiction, critical illnesses that have required people to change or risk their lives :flushed:. awakenings - dark nights of the soul, living authentically and choosing life over the rat race. And I intend to take this podcast along with my van, meeting people who want authentic over society & subjugation.
  2. I’m over the BS, the lack of compassion, respect and the polarity that has washed over too much of life “I don’t like you cos you don’t agree with me” nonsense, so van life appeals
  3. I’m living a spiritual & Shamanic life, and this fits in with being out of towns, in nature and connecting with people who view the world differently.

Now all I’ve gotta do is build my home and go travel, experience, have amazing conversations with people and share what I’ve seen and experienced.

Cheers ya’all.

Hamish
