About Benjamin Smith

Hello, my name is Benjamin, my wife is Lindsay our son is Cooper, and we have a 6 year old Fox Red Golden Retriever, Sadie. Since I was a young boy, I can remember some of my best memories spent camping. Let's just say I have been hooked ever since! I have had the privilege to experience camping in all forms, from back country all the way to "glamping". I love to backpack and portage but there has always been something special about the idea of "VanLife". Although it may not be a full-time reality for us at this point in our life, we have really grown to love the freedoms and challenges that come with the lifestyle. This fascination and curiosity, (with a hint of COVID-19 lockdown...) Inspired us to build our van. In April of 2021, we welcomed SULLY to the family and instantly knew it was a perfect fit. Sully (Sullivan) was the direct result of hours of watching our favourite Youtubers; (Eamon and Bec, Kingingit, Kara and Nate just to name a few) pursue their passions and live a modest lifestyle with the freedom of travel. After completing the build of our van in 2021, it became apparent to us, between working full-time jobs and trying to start a family, that we would need to be home more then we like. It was at this point we decided it would only be selfish of us to keep SULLY locked up and not share him with you! Although we are new to renting our van, we are eager to hear stories and the memories you have created. Please enjoy and we look forward to hosting you in the future. Until then, Ben, Lindsay and Sadie
