Vans are used for a variety of reasons and by many people from different walks of life, such as tradesmen and surfers, but in 2020, Auto Trader reported that over half of customers who bought vans did so for the purpose of conversion and travel.

This is the story of a culture, which originally emerged in the USA and has spread across the globe, reaching the Highlands and Islands. With the impact Covid has had on the travel industry, people were looking for new and safe ways to enjoy a holiday on their own doorstep. What is the appeal of a trip in a campervan and why have they seen a rise in popularity?

Jessica Ferguson hires vans out to people, Lisa Annette enjoys a little freedom after being desk-bound during the working week and John Campbell has found a solution to the problem of finding accommodation whilst travelling for work. What is van life really like and is it worth it?
