The story so far

About The Van

Real vanlife, unfiltered — rolling across Canada.

Who we are

Ghetto Van Adventures is vanlife without the filter — free camping spots, hidden food gems, and honest road trip stories from across Canada. No luxury build, no script: just the highway, a van, and whatever's around the next bend.

What you'll find

  • Free camping: real overnight spots and how the nights actually go.
  • Food finds: fast-food oddities and roadside snacks, reviewed vanlife-style.
  • Road stories: seasons, breakdowns, small towns, and big skies.
  • Abby the Akita: co-pilot, camp guardian, and fan favourite — meet her here.
