Vereless n Free

Buying a Van and Finding Myself with Lisa Jansen


Listen Later

Have you ever had a voice in your head asking you what's next? Have you ever questioned the traditional route of work and family because it simply doesn't resonate? Have you ever had dreams and felt held back by fear and insecurities?

Lisa Jansen, a good friend of mine who's a vanlifer in New Zealand is my guest on Episode Two of the "Vereless N Free" podcast ("Fearless & Free")! Lisa opens up about being a self-proclaimed dreamer who used to not take action, a university course that shifted her entire life perspective, and how buying a van for a summer on the road in New Zealand turned into a few years of full-time vanlife. She's fallen in love with her new lifestyle especially since it helped her find space and time to publish a book, start a podcast, and write an on-going blog all based around encouraging people to do "Life Differently."

We talk all things vanlife from how she got her start, fears, personal safety, daily routines, lessons learned, and her hobbies on the road. This episode is for anyone interested in vanlife or has the desire for a "Life Done Differently." It's also for the dreamers, those curious about New Zealand and expat life, or if you love hearing two friends chat about what they're passionate about in life and how they make things happen!

Lisa brings so much positivity and realness to this conversation and she's been one of my biggest inspirations in my vanlife journey. I'm so grateful for the time I spent with her and hope you enjoy it!
