Hit the Road - Vans, Nomads and Roadside Adventures

by Gestalten

Get behind the wheel, turn the key, and feel the breeze. Hit the Road features the individuality of overland vehicles, their passionate owners, and the inspiring journeys that celebrate a life on the move. There's a worldwide movement of people escaping the buzz of cities and diving into nature-packed camping trips and weekends away. Recharged, some head back on Sunday evening; others keep driving for months on end as they visit new countries, experience new cultures, and collect new memories. Hit the Road excites as a collection of overland adventures that put the focus on those who have decided to leave the average life behind--and not just millennials. Their rides range from the classic Volkswagen camper to cozy refurbished Airstream trailers and unstoppable fully-equipped 4×4 Adventuremobiles. The journey continues with stunning photography from the deserts of Africa to snow-tipped mountains in Mongolia. Experts share their experiences, their tips and tricks, and their favorite campfire-friendly recipes for life on four wheels. Are you ready to hit the road?

I would recommend it to anyone who has ever contemplated going on a road trip or who suffers from wanderlust.

If you're addicted to Wanderlust, this right here is your final high. Sorry if that sounds extreme, but this book is really like a drug - extremely satisfying yet at the same time making the real world (my driver's license lacking poor ass's life) look bleak and shitty. This is amazing. Awesome photography, inspiring vans, cool travel routes and interesting stories. I'm beyond jealous. sigh
