Casal dá a volta ao mundo com R$ 20 mil e inspira outros que têm o mesmo sonho

Craig Hubbard e Lauren Winslow-Llewellyn juntaram 5 mil libras e decidiram sair em uma volta ao mundo sem data para voltar. O valor, equivalente a cerca de R$ 26 mil, já proporcionou uma década de viagem.

O casal britânico iniciou a aventura a bordo de uma van em Brighton, na Inglaterra. 10 anos depois, eles já somam mais de 50 países visitados.

Patagonia, you’ve been a blast. Now it’s time to make our way across the pond and spend the next couple of months in Europe and the Middle East.

Se engana quem pensa que os carimbos no passaporte se resumiram a países europeus. Craig e Lauren já estiveram na América do Sul, na América do Norte, na Oceania, Europa e Ásia. Atualmente, eles estão aproveitando uma temporada em Buenos Aires e o próximo destino já está definido: Malta.

When the backdrop is so beautiful it doesn’t even look real. I think it’s safe to say that out of all the mountains we’ve seen around the world these ones are the most impressive ??

Todo o necessário para a viagem é carregado na van, que ganhou o apelido de Daphne. Segundo o Daily Mail, o veículo tem uma área de apenas 5,5 m² e consumiu a maior parte do orçamento da viagem: ele foi comprado por £ 2,900 – aproximadamente R$ 15 mil de acordo com o câmbio atual.

Obviamente, os valores iniciais não foram os responsáveis por todos os custos dessa viagem. Em diversos momentos ao longo dos últimos 10 anos, o casal teve trabalhos temporários para juntar fundos e continuar na estrada.

Enjoying our final few weeks in Ruby the van before we sell her and spend a few months backpacking. If your interested in purchasing our cozy home on wheels (including Roland the rowboat) then send us a message. We’ll be putting an ad up in a week or so and probably selling around the Vancouver area.

O que garante a continuidado do roteiro é conseguir reduzir os gastos ao máximo, dormindo na van e aproveitando passeios ao ar livre. As aventuras são registradas através do blog Non Stop Travelling, um título que resume muito bem a vida nômade do casal.

Lazy days in Ruby the rolling home. I’ve now finished embroidering my second cushion – inspired by the desert ?

We’ve been offline for awhile, exploring the Canadian Rockies and hiking every day with the odd paddle trip in unreal blue lake. It’s been pretty damn amazing ??

The past three months in America have flown by. We had the most incredible time roadtripping around the western States, hiking to alpine lakes and through slot canyons, camping by flower filled meadows and gushing rivers and admiring so many animals in the wild. It’s safe to say after travelling for over a decade, America is still our number one country, but with our visa expiring we had to say goodbye and head back into Canada for our final few months travelling in Ruby the van. This time we’ll be exploring more of the rockies but also some new areas to us like Vancouver Island and the coastal mountains.

We love exploring new places…but sometimes returning to our favourite spots is even better ?
