A Guy. A Girl. And a Campervan

How a two-month honeymoon turned into a two-year life-changing adventure.

Just before their wedding, Derrick and Paula decided to sell up, downsize and pack their limited belongings into a campervan. They were about to embark on a two-month road trip across Canada. So profound was the experience, their adventure of a lifetime ended up lasting two years.

Their lifestyle experiment is a brilliant example of living the dream and challenging the way we think about buying and owning stuff.

They’re deeply curious, deeply Canadian, and their can-do attitude is deeply inspirational.
