The Wayward Home Podcast

Ever dreamed of living life on the road, with the world as your backyard? Well, our guest Noami Grevemberg has not just dreamt it, but she's been living it every day since 2016! From adjusting to a Volkswagen Vanagon from a full-sized apartment, to the surprises that come with van life, Noami's stories are both inspiring and informative. She generously shares practical tips for those who might be considering this adventurous lifestyle and shares her love for her tiny home on wheels that's now an important part of her journey.
But, Noami's story doesn't stop at her personal adventures. She's on a mission to make the van life community more inclusive, welcoming, and diverse. Noami shines a light on the challenges she faced as an interracial couple traveling the country, and how the lack of representation of marginalized communities led her to establish Diversify Van Life. This initiative and her book, Living That Van Life, are key efforts in promoting diversity and representation within this lifestyle choice. So, join us for this enlightening conversation with Noami - it's bound to make you rethink and appreciate the life of those who call the open road their home.
