After having understood the reasons<\/a> that made our members choose this way of travelling, and how to prepare for it<\/a>, discover our last article about the Van Life<\/em>. We’ll discuss the destinations which our 8 mileopedians travelled to!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"What<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Accessible destinations<\/h2>\n\n\n\n\n\n

Our vanlifers<\/em> travel alone, as a couple, with their family and some with their dogs. They travelled short and long distances depending on their free time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"What<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

From two weeks of employer-allocated vacation time to four years continuously<\/strong>, some after selling houses, condos and cars. They experienced moments of pure grace, but not without challenge, often of a mechanical nature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And you can take photos of sublime places, even though between two idyllic shots, as some say, you still have to move around.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And there are also sad stories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For example, that of Kelly, her husband and son, whose well-vaccinated Bernese mountain dog Maurice, who accompanied them, became seriously ill in California.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He had to be hospitalized before the family had to return to Quebec urgently. $10,000 later,<\/strong> with the exchange rate<\/a> playing against them, the poor beast died and the couple sold their Winnebago.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nevertheless, Kelly considers this trip to have been the most beautiful of her life. RIP Maurice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The countries visited<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The milesopedia community<\/a> vanlifers<\/em> interviewed covered America from East to West and North to South. At least, they were on their way to do so.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Others have rented on another continent: in Europe and Oceania.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Canada<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Canada<\/strong>: from Newfoundland to British Columbia before branching off to the Northwest Territories, Yukon and Alaska.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I am thinking here of Emmanuelle and her dog Kuta, who crossed the polar circle together<\/strong>. Yes yes, you read it right: Inuvik. Just like Jo\u00eblle, one of our frequent travelers did with her husband in 1996.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
