Packing always seems to be a challenge. I love packing light and prefer to pack carry-on only whenever possible. There’s something freeing about traveling light, especially when you are moving from place to place. But, sometimes, packing light just isn’t an option, especially when you...
Cooking in a camper van sounded like it would be quite an interesting feat. We wondered if we would have all the necessary utensils and supplies, if there would be space to move around easily and if we would have enough room to store our...
Manitoba is often described as mostly prairie land, but it has so much more to offer than most people realize. Winnipeg, the capital of Manitoba, was voted as one of the best trips to take in 2016, and the rest of the province has plenty...
The first five days of our Happy Campers road trip around Iceland saw us making our way through the Westfjords and up into the northern part of the island. While there were a few long driving days, we still packed in quite a few adventures,...

Iceland is the perfect road-tripping destination. With gorgeous scenery and otherworldly landscapes around every corner, you will find plenty of sights that will draw you in and make you want to stay awhile. Some of these road trips can be done in a day, but...
This past summer, we’ve practically lived in our car. We have driven thousands of miles and covered much of the United States and Canada. Road trips are quickly becoming one of our favorite ways to travel, which is good because we have even more coming...
