I did enjoy this book but I sure wish there had been more captions on the photos. So many photos didn't have any caption at all and I didn't know where they were taken or who was in the photos or anything.

Just wrapped this one up….. LOVED IT.
Stories & beautiful photography from nomads, wanderers, free spirits etc. as well as insight into the culture, the people, the places, the vehicles, and the freedom of living an alternative lifestyle of needing less to gain more out of life.
Unfortunately reading this filled me with even more wanderlust than I already have. Most people work their whole lives for more and more stuff. Nicer cars, bigger houses, etc. I’ve also fallen into that consumerist trap but now my focus has shifted & I’m working & investing so I can let all those things go & then just roam. 😌 And no shade if you enjoy the material lifestyle. I’ve personally have checked a lot of those boxes that society says is the right thing to do to be successful but all those things don’t always equate to true happiness.
This one we 5/5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ for me.

Although I enjoyed this book, it felt like it didn’t say as much as it could have. The essays only offer a glimpse into the world of vanlife lovers - I would have wished for more detail!
