Keeping Wanderlust

We know this might come as a shock, but van life can be really challenging! Usually the first questions our friends have for us are about the hardest parts of this chosen lifestyle, and we always have stories to tell. In this episode, Kris and Kayla dive into some of the biggest mishaps they've encountered living a life on the road full time.

Disclaimer: None of these mishaps have made us consider moving back into a permanent residence :)

On their magical trip to Sedona, Kayla attempts to get Kris in touch with his spirituality and connect with Mother Nature on a deeper level. He's a bit skeptical at first but after several energy charged meditations, he walks away a changed man, having fallen in love with yoga and attained true nirvana.
