From video: He Left… Travelling to Greece Alone in My Van
Published: January 14, 2026

Video Description

Join me as I embark on another solo trip, leaving the mountains of Sardinia and crossing two oceans on my long, uncertain journey to Greece. In this van life vlog I talk about my relationship with solitude, learning to do things scared, and the difference between intuition and fear - from remote hikes and cancelled ferry crossings, long drives, and finally arriving in the mountains of northern Greece. This episode is an exploration of adaptability and choosing growth over comfort, as I continue living simply on the road in my campervan Frodo with my puppy Heidi 🤎 A big thank you to eSIM.sm for sponsoring this video.
