hello everybody and Happy New Year we're Eamon and Bec a couple of van lifers
currently driving around the world and we thought it would be an awesome way to
kick off 2020 if we shared our top van life travel destinations with you so we
hit up some of our friends who are traveling all around the globe
to explain their favorite place they went last year and hopefully inspire you
and your travels this year so without further ado let's get into it what is
happening guys we are Craig and Aimee also known as Kinging- it and this is our
bus named custard who we've recently renovated and this summer she took us on
the most spectacular road trip ever through Europe and our favorite country
on that trip was Switzerland now you will need to remortgage your house if
you want to go to Switzerland but we can guarantee you'll have a fantastic time
it kind of looks green screened like everything is just a pop of colour
they've got like emerald green lakes and snow-capped mountains vast valleys that
you can drive through it did not disappoint watch out for those cows no
they're pretty aggressive another highlight was the Galman band funicular
we enough this thing is kind of like a roller coaster it was it really slow
there's one of the best views I've ever experienced I love that they were
working on that Wow I remember ladies if you are going to the first in
Switzerland and you wish to wear a wig make sure you strap it on tight so if
you want to get your pants blown off but make sure you go to Switzerland but make
sure you take enough gas are you sure they use that camping
otherwise we'll have to cook with this Oh make sure you get Switzerland on your
bucket list lads hi we are Ben and Leah from Kombi Life and we're driving around
the world in this 73 bus and our favorite place with our life is
France! really that's gonna say Central America because it is such a densely
culturally rich land that just has to be explored France which I said is I think
one of the best places for van like that country is just made for campervan lots
of facilities great places to stay it's just the easiest place for van life and
while you're in Europe you're only a short drive and a one-hour ferry from
Africa yeah we're in Africa at the moment in
Morocco and it is one of the most unique places that we've spent in Auvergne in
one country you get to see forest the mountains the deserts the beaches you
have a culture like you're never gonna see anywhere else on the planet honestly
every single day of our life in Morocco absolutely blows us away we've got all
of that content coming on the Kombi life YouTube channel this year and we can't
wait to share it we're gonna change Moroccans our favorite place of our life
yeah you know what's up guys were the Matneys we're coming at you from
Washington State where my family lives visiting them for the holidays 2019 was
a super crazy year for us we visited 11 different countries in our van this year
starting with the United States and we made it all the way down to Peru and
hands down our favorite destination of the air wise we got to Colombia first
through the San Blas island to speedboat through this blessed islands and it was
amazing super super recommended it was the highlight of our trip we then landed
in Cartagena and I actually got this list of time there alone and doing some
solo people in bad life so that was definitely an adventure I just love the
vibe of the Caribbean it is so vibrant so lively everybody is always having a
good time having a party my favorite part of Colombia is actually a little
more South in the coffee region at Medellin. Medellin is the most
developed Latin American city that I have ever seen it's super beautiful it's
super vibrant the whole city is just like a hub of vibrant activity and fun
go to Colombia it's our travel destination of 2019 hey friend
so we are Janelle and Levi in our opinion a must visit place is Alaska yeah this is
on our dream list four years ago when you bought the van took us a little bit
longer together than we thought and the reputation of Alaska definitely
seeds itself so you can understand that we were a little nervous heading up
there if the vision we had of Alaska was greater than it would actually be and it
like far exceeded our expectation is amazing there's a never-ending list hike
blazers to see places to park and alaskan roads to explore one of our
favorite highways was the denali highway which is this old logging road where you
can see the beautiful Alaskan range Alaska
yeah we just loved it driving around it was amazing! Hola amigees I'm Maria Jose
I'm chase and this is our converted school bus
call Tio Aventura what we consider the best place to spend the early part of
2020 and the latter part of 2020 would be in Arizona and from that one of our
three must visit places in Arizona starts in Sedona Sedona is a place for
everything outdoors or if you just want to be surrounded by Red Rock demands be
sure to add it to you unless our second must visit place in Arizona is the
Apache Junction area surrounded by the Superstition Mountain you can go from
quirky little city to upgrade with no reception in males did we mention this
place is super mysterious for a major change of scenery you must visit in a
tiny town called Sequoia La Cienega the National Conservation land
this was our go-to spot to forget about everything and we did there are millions
of other places they're amazing in Arizona and we can just continue talking
and talking but I guess you will have to visit yourself so we'll see you out
there hi guys I'm Theo and this is Bee (Indie Projects) and
together with our cat gingy bear he's actually out right now so she's on Theo's
t-shirts we're driving around the world in our van
in out of the 16 countries that we travel to this year Norway has to be the
best anyone i watch annual race in fact all of Scandinavia but it's just
a country little freely below the massive fjords the mountain ranges
and the vast wilderness means that Norway is definitely a destination you
must visit we're trapped now and for the past year we've been traveling the south
of the states in our campervan through all of central and most of South
America if you're looking for an amazing travel destination in 2020 our
recommendation for you is Guatemala la Tamala was awesome we went to the
highest peak in Central America we went to Lake atitlán which was amazing
there's great food there's awesome coffee and the most mesmerizing thing
that I think we've seen on our entire trip we hiked aquata Nang go to look at
el fuego which is a volcano that's outside of Antigua I've never seen lava
and rocks shot 400 feet into the air especially at night when the lava is all
illuminated but our number one location in Guatemala was the tikal ruins maybe
we're a little biased because that's where I proposed to me luckily she's
dead yet so if you're looking for somewhere to travel hypothetically
somewhere you could even drive to Guatemala is definitely at some place
you should consider hey I'm Tyler and I'm Todd we're a Canadian couple and
YouTube creators living full time out of our self renovated RV owned with our two
dogs Charlie many we're currently making our way across North America and our
favorite destination that we've been so far and you should definitely check out
in 2020 as Palm Springs California this desert City offers such a diversity
of experiences for any traveler from snow-capped mountains to beautiful
landscapes perfect for hiking a vibrant nightlife and of course natural hot
springs all around free to enjoy as lgbtq+ travelers we have to have a
heightened sense of awareness of the places that we're staying
luckily Palm Springs is a very prideful and welcoming City there are ample free
camping spots all around the Palm Springs area especially so if you're
self camping however we decided to stay in a tiny home community just outside
the city where we stayed was complete with natural hot spring fed pools and
hot tubs a fitness center Wi-Fi and all of that was just $27 a night Palm
Springs is a beautiful and budget-friendly place to add to your
list for 2020 hey guys drew and Brittney here of mr.
and mrs. adventure we just came back from exploring Maui Hawaii in a van we
didn't actually ship our rolling home there we rented one and we think one
week is the perfect amount of time to get yourself into all that there is to
do on this beautiful piece of Earth we loved the temperature we could live in
board shorts and swim suit every day we were swimming constantly and we really
love snorkeling with the dolphins that very next day we were hiking across the
crater of a volcano which felt like another planet there's beautiful jungle
hikes with waterfalls that you can explore and there's these roadside fruit
stands where you can eat your heart's content of star fruit huge avocados and
cut up the juicy Maui Gold pineapples we've really really enjoyed it so go
adventure in this new year and we'll see you out there
Aloha and last but certainly not least is our recommendation for 2020 which is
Iceland Ava and I had the opportunity to rent a camper over there for about ten
days and it was just magical we actually drove around the entire ring road which
was moving pretty quick but it is doable and we were there during the summer
solstice so around June 21st they have what they call the Midnight Sun which is
essentially 24 hours of daylight but get going and save up some pennies it's not
necessarily the cheapest destination and it's getting more and more busy every
year if you're an adventurer enthusiast I would highly recommend Iceland we got
up to everything from snowmobiling on a glacier to rock climbing on ice if
that's possible ice picking ice picking and everything
in between including lots and lots of good hot springs
the best part about having a band with you is you can pull over for a snack any
time of the day as well as catch a few Z's tonight Iceland so we highly
recommend Iceland for your 2020 bucket list it was a country that far exceeded
our expectations and now that we've had a chance to watch everyone else's
footage we're thinking our bucket list is going to keep growing and growing
so huge thank you to all of our friends who took part in today's video you guys
can check them all out their channels are awesome it'll all be linked below
and a huge shout out to hey Nadine who does a travel video just like this on
her channel that will also be linked below and we'll be back with some
