If you see a fellow dubber, and there is room, always park next to them because they respect the way of the Dub.

A walk up to the highest point on the IOW at St Catherine’s Oratory giving stunning views of the island and over to France. Seemed rude not to take the opportunity to do a spotted!

I could not have written this better myself.
The friendships we have made on our vanlife journey has simply blown us away. We have made brilliant new friends from complete strangers, but also have rekindled old lost friendships too, just because of our love of one common theme.
Thank you to everyone who has already entered our circle and to those we have not yet met, we would like to say how much we look forward to meeting you.

Van life is more than just a way of living; it’s a vision, a dream, and a culture rooted in the values of freedom, adventure, and most importantly, community. When I set out on this journey, my goal was clear: to build a family where everyone is welcomed, supported, and celebrated for who they are. I dreamed of a community where people could find a sense of belonging, no matter where they came from or what their story was.

I’ve always believed in lifting others up, in extending a hand of friendship and support to everyone I meet. It’s been a joy to see people come together, to witness strangers become friends, and to watch as love and support flourish in a community that’s built on kindness and inclusion.

Through it all, our closest friends have stood by our side, pouring their hearts, sweat, and hard work into this vision. It’s not just my dream anymore—it’s ours. Together, we’ve built something that’s growing stronger every day, something that’s becoming more beautiful than we ever imagined. The countless hours, the late nights, and the unwavering dedication of our friends have been the foundation of what this community is becoming. Their commitment and belief in this shared dream have turned a simple vision into a thriving, supportive family.

I’ve tried to include everyone, to bring as many people into this circle of love and adventure as possible. Yet, I’ve also learned that not everyone is ready for that kind of openness, and sometimes, despite our best efforts, we’re pushed away. But that’s okay. I’ve come to understand that not everyone will see the beauty in what we’re creating, and that’s just part of the journey.

What matters most is staying true to who we are. There’s a saying that resonates deeply with me: “Bees don’t waste time telling flies that honey is better than sh*t.” It’s a reminder that we don’t need to justify our choices or our way of life to anyone. We just need to keep following our dreams, living for the adventure, the freedom, and the friendships that come with this unique way of life.

Van life isn’t just about the miles we travel or the places we visit. It’s about the people we meet, the connections we make, and the community we build. It’s about creating a space where everyone feels at home, where everyone is valued and loved.

So, to all of you who have been part of this journey, thank you. Thank you for your support, your friendship, and your belief in this vision. To our closest friends who have worked so hard to help build this dream, words can’t express how grateful I am for your love, your energy, and your unwavering support. Together, we’ve built something beautiful—a family that stretches across miles and brings warmth wherever it goes. Let’s keep living life to the fullest, embracing the adventure, and staying true to ourselves.

That’s the van life culture way. Let’s keep rolling.
🤜🏻🤛🏻
