Book Description
With hundreds of funky vehicles, awe-inspiring landscapes, and cleverly designed interiors in tiny spaces, Van Life is perfect for anyone who dreams about living on the open road. More and more people of all generations--from millennials to baby boomers--are taking a break from conventional life for the freedom, tranquility, and adventure of being on the road and living in a converted vintage truck, camper, or van. One of these van-dwellers, Foster Huntington, created the #vanlife hashtag as he chronicled his adventures of living in a van and driving it across the country. He tapped into a community of like-minded individuals looking to explore nature at their own pace and live a debt-free lifestyle. Van Life showcases the best crowd-sources photographs from Foster's social media accounts--many of which have never been posted or seen before. Organized into sections like Volkswagen vans, American vans, converted vans, school buses, and more, the selection of photos includes shots of the unique vehicles and the beautiful locations they've been parked. From stunning beaches to dramatic mountains and picturesque forests, and with fully designed interiors with kitchens and sleeping quarters, this stunning array of life-on-the-road-possibilities might just be enough to get you to pack up your things and hit the highway. Also included are informative and topical interviews with solo travelers, couples, and families who are living this new American dream.

Book Description
Hit the road with two freewheeling ladies and experience love in a van in this bohemian lesbian romance! Julia Marks isn't one to stick around very long. She's blissfully living the vanlife, crossing the country as she pleases, working odd jobs to fund her lifestyle, treading lightly, and leaving no trace behind her. But despite the immense freedom she has as a bohemian nomad, she can't help but feel that something's missing. A quick trip through Madison turns far more interesting for Julia when she meets Robin Hyland. Robin is searching for answers, and a chance encounter between the two women opens up a brand new adventure that neither expected. While Julia didn't anticipate having a passenger in her van, it's hard to say no to a pretty redhead who's looking to find herself. Now these two women must navigate the difficult route ahead of them together. Can love prevail over the challenges of life on the road?

Book Description
In 1996, Patterson Hood recruited friends and fellow musicians in Athens, Georgia, to form his dream band: a group with no set lineup that specialized in rowdy rock and roll. The Drive-By Truckers, as they named themselves, grew into one of the best and most consequential rock bands of the twenty-first century, a great live act whose songs deliver the truth and nuance rarely bestowed on Southerners, so often reduced to stereotypes. Where the Devil Don’t Stay tells the band’s unlikely story not chronologically but geographically. Seeing the Truckers’ albums as roadmaps through a landscape that is half-real, half-imagined, their fellow Southerner Stephen Deusner travels to the places the band’s members have lived in and written about. Tracking the band from Muscle Shoals, Alabama, to Richmond, Virginia, to the author’s hometown in McNairy County, Tennessee, Deusner explores the Truckers’ complex relationship to the South and the issues of class, race, history, and religion that run through their music. Drawing on new interviews with past and present band members, including Jason Isbell, Where the Devil Don’t Stay is more than the story of a great American band; it’s a reflection on the power of music and how it can frame and shape a larger culture.

Book Description
Imagine you are in Australia, driving north along the A49 to Lake Macquarie, in your newly purchased campervan. You left Sydney that afternoon, later than planned because you got lost around Wahroonga. Your partner doesn't seem to care that it is starting to get dark, they are just 'living the dream, mate'. You don't have sat-nav because you are trying to get away from technology. You didn't come all the way to Australia to be told where to go. The roads are yours! Besides, you looked at a map and there is basically only one road along the coast of Australia from Sydney to Cairns. How could you get lost? Then you see it. A sign saying 'Newcastle' straight ahead. You know you need to turn before you get to Newcastle, but when? Which turn was it? You ask your partner, but they are no help, saying some pseudo-hippie stuff about 'what will be, will be, man'. You start to question your reasoning for living and traveling in a van with them, but then you see it: the first sign of the urban sprawl of the city. It's too late. You resign yourself to the fact you will be spending the night in Newcastle. Your travel partner is not happy about it 'Strewth, mate, Newcastle!' You don't know why they are talking like that, they are from Bournemouth. This situation, and many more like it, could be avoided by having easy access to a kind of writing pad, some way of recording directions in analogue form, some kind of.... van life travel journal! Something like this fine product you are viewing. 100 lined pages, perfect van-size, classy van-photo on the front. Everything you could possibly need to avoid going to Newcastle. This van life notebook even contains pithy travel quotes to help you relax after a long day getting lost. Buy this notebook and head to the lakes, not the city.

Book Description
Josh Chester loves being a Hollywood bad boy, coasting on his good looks, his parties, his parents' wealth, and the occasional modeling gig. But his laid-back lifestyle is about to change. To help out his best friend, Liam, he joins his hit teen TV show, Daylight Falls...opposite Vanessa Park, the one actor immune to his charms. (Not that he's trying to charm her, of course.) Meanwhile, his drama-queen mother blackmails him into a new family reality TV show, with Josh in the starring role. Now that he's in the spotlight--on everyone's terms but his own--Josh has to decide whether a life as a superstar is the one he really wants. Vanessa Park has always been certain about her path as an actor, despite her parents' disapproval. But with all her relationships currently in upheaval, she's painfully uncertain about everything else. When she meets her new career handler, Brianna, Van is relieved to have found someone she can rely on, now that her BFF, Ally, is at college across the country. But as feelings unexpectedly evolve beyond friendship, Van's life reaches a whole new level of confusing. And she'll have to choose between the one thing she's always loved...and the person she never imagined she could.

Book Description
Do your friends think you're crazy for wanting to opt-out of the 9-5 rat race, move into a van and travel the world? Screw them, let's do it. This book will take you from daydreaming about van life as you sit at your desk counting down the days until your next vacation, to living a dream life of endless travel, adventure, and the great outdoors. Living in a van is the most economical way to travel and there are so many ways to make it sustainable long term. Working as an executive assistant in New York City, I never dreamed I would quit my high-paying corporate job to live in a van down by the river. That was until I met Frankie, a wanderlust with a big heart who was ready to explore the world and wanted me by his side. With his dream and my organization skills, a year later we had sold everything we owned, gave notice on our apartment, moved into our self-converted van and hit the road. 20,000+ miles later, through so much trial and error, we are experts at living a nomadic life. We share our successes, struggles and setbacks weekly on our YouTube channel and interview other thriving nomads on our podcast (FnA Van Life). We've traveled pre and post-pandemic so can share how life on the road has changed, but how it is still the best way to live and travel that we've ever found. First, I'll guide you through the planning stages of van life. Things you can work on while you're still at your job like defining your dreams, downsizing, finding your rig, and building a tiny home on wheels. Then we'll hit the road and all your burning questions about where to sleep, how to camp for free, where to get internet, how to earn money, and so much more will be answered in detail with real-life examples from my own travels and experiences living a nomadic life. If you want to take the leap into van life but need some practical advice about the realities of living on the road, this is the book for you. With so many updates for a post-pandemic world, this guide will have you on the road making smart decisions about your safety, finances, and of course, having so much fun and adventure your friends will be wishing they lived in a van too.
