Travelling in a van without a plan for six months —who doesn’t dream of that? Still, there are very few people who actually do it. Maybe you have to be so incredibly through with your life, that you just can’t think of a better plan. Gertrude Lok left for Canada, bought a converted van with a bed and a genny, drove from one coast to the other and kept a diary.

Not just any travel journal or a collection of witty columns, but a less-than-ordinary self-help book, that can be an inspiration to many of you to seek out your own adventure and reclaim your life. 

380 pages, 78 chapters, 10 photos, 14 maps. 15,000 kilometers, 65 locations, countless new friends – in 6 months.
