One Flew Over The Cuckoos Nest
The other day on our way to Ushuaia we saw an overlander on rollerblades pushing a cart. I think he was Swedish due to the flags. We honked and he waved. He was about 45km from Ushuaia so we think it…

A Year Sleeping In A Car You Must Be Mad
We are very happy in the car and our full size double. Its actaully better to sleep in than a normal double. You don’t fall out if you get to the edge so it feels bigger. It also have probably…
