Meet Charlie and Dale, founders of Climbingvan, currently travelling Europe and living full time in their self-built camper van.
Fed up with living for evenings and weekends, Charlie and Dale gave up their secure 9-5 office jobs for a life on their road – working remotely from wherever their fancy takes them and waking up to gorgeous mountain views.
They started building Ringo, their bright yellow Sprinter van, in January 2019, fully intending to go exploring when they were done. Ringo was finished in March 2020 – just before the first UK lockdown!
Undeterred, Charlie and Dale turned their hand to helping others with their van conversions, becoming Instagram stars in the process. They used their backgrounds in science and engineering to write the Van Conversion Bible, which fast became the bestselling van conversion book.
They’ve also launched Nomadic Energy, their electric design service for campervans.
When they’re not chilling and working in their van, they’re out climbing. Join us as we dig into all things van conversion, nomadic living, and their passion for climbing.
