Chris and Sam Hoar have always had a “burning desire to travel the world”, but, having been together since they were 14, settled into married life with full time jobs. But during lockdown, they realised we took our freedom for granted which inspired them to quit their jobs and start a new life in a campervan, living ‘off-grid’ and travelling the world. Chris and Sam spent many weekends and evenings after work renovating their van once they’d got it. While Chris was handy with the building side of things, using skills from his previous job and YouTube videos to help, Sam was particularly excited about the interior. The campervan is fit with lots of storage space, a lounge area and bookshelf, a bathroom, comfy bed and even a roof terrace to take in the view.Chris and Sam have recently got back to the UK and are planning to do some travelling over here next with places like Scotland and the Lake District on their bucket list. They will head back to “somewhere hot” in Europe for the winter though as their campervan is equipped with everything needed to live off-grid for days at a time.
