45: Sprinter Van or Truck Camper: Which is the Ultimate Adventure Rig?

The Wayward Home Podcast

Overlanding in a truck camper in the Western US or exploring Europe in a self-built camper van? Join us as we embark on a journey of exploration with our guest, Sebastian Santabarbara. As a seasoned traveler and author of the books 'Van Life for Dummies', 'Road Life' and 'Tent Life', Seb has a wealth of knowledge to share about living on the road, building camper vans, and the ins and outs of pop-up truck campers.
We learn about what it's like to travel in a Four Wheel truck camper based on Seb's adventures - the surprising amount of living space and functionality that a pop-up truck camper offers when it is popped up, the off-road capabilities and handling of driving with a camper, capabilities for hauling gear, and more.
Kristin and Seb then compare this with each of their experiences traveling in a camper van, such as the ability to enter the living space from the cab. We also hear Seb's insights on vanlife in Europe, and what kind of vehicle suits this particular form of travel.
If you're curious about nomadic living in its many forms, or just have a love for the outdoors, this is an episode you won't want to miss!
