What an emotional rollercoaster! We head into Serbia to explore the Northern region, but a drone crash and a phone call from our friends about a dog rescue changes all our plans. So begins a series of events that unfolded unexpectedly. Feeling like we are being trolled by the universe, but bonded closer than before with our good friends Chesca and Ben from @Overlanding Sophia Needless to say, life isn’t always simple, and it doesn’t always work out, but we all just keep going!
⤈ WHO WE ARE ⤈
We are Philly and Keely and we live full time in our tiny home on wheels Martha. After building our DIY home in a Citroen Relay camper we spent a year living on the streets of London before quitting our jobs only to be met with lockdown. So after waiting for six months for the borders to reopen in Ireland we finally hit the road in June 2021 and spent 90 days enjoying vanlife in Spain. Followed by two months in Croatia, a month in Serbia which stole our hearts. Then we took our van further than she had ever been before to the very beautiful Turkey. We spent three glorious months here meeting other vanlifers and experiencing these rich cultures only to have to drive all the way back in time for our MOT. Enroute we stoped off in Spain for a few weeks where we experienced every van lifers worst nightmare, we were robbed and they stole all valuables in our van. But now we are back on our feet, fully MOT’d and back on the road through Europe and beyond!!
