Vanlife in the Desert 🌵 | Nearly Blew Up Our Engine

🌵 Welcome to Joshua Tree National Park! This is our first time camping in Joshua Tree as a family of 5, and it was nothing short of magical. From cooking an easy risotto recipe to exploring a kid-friendly hike on one of the most beautiful loop walks, this adventure was all about slowing down, soaking in the desert landscapes, and experiencing the incredible rock formations and colours that make Joshua Tree so unique.

In this video we share:
✨ Our first family camping experience in Joshua Tree

Whether you’re planning your first trip to Joshua Tree, looking for easy camping meals, or searching for the best family hikes in Joshua Tree National Park, this will give you plenty of inspiration for your next adventure.

A little about us ✨
This adventure began in 2017 when we bought our Kombi Izzie and decided to set off around Australia with our son Riley. Since then we now have another two little explorers and have been around Australia twice before deciding to embark on the ultimate adventure to drive around the world. So far we have explored the snow capped mountains of New Zealand, the incredible culture of Japan and now we have just the hit the USA starting in Hawaii.

Thanks for tuning in and coming on this crazy adventure with us!
