Preparing for a Cold Winter Alone in My Van

Van and RV trips around the world
Sep 5, 2026

Join me as I prepare for a cold winter in my tiny wooden campervan Frodo with my puppy Heidi, travelling solo from the misty Welsh hills to the wild Scottish Highlands. In this cosy winter van life vlog I share my slow seasonal morning routine, how I prepare the van for cold weather, how I deal with frozen pipes and short days, and embrace the natural slowness of off-grid living in a small space. This episode is a gentle reflection on finding comfort in simplicity, and learning how to “winter well” while living full-time on the road ❄️🌿
