Couple write book following epic 80,000-mile journey in order to continue their journey

A couple who have travelled more than 80,000 miles in their campervan have written a book in an attempt to fund further adventures.

Lauren Smith and partner Callum from Milton Keynes purchased a beaten up 1996 Volkswagen T4 in 2010 and immediately took to fixing it up to create their very own dream home on wheels. Since that time, Lauren and Callum have travelled more than 80,000 miles across Europe, taking in country after country and site after site.

And now, in an attempt to continue their dream of living a free-spirited, nomadic lifestyle, Lauren and Callum have written a book, entitled The Rolling Home, documenting their adventures as they continued to travel in their new to wherever they decided to pitch up.

The concept for the book came to the couple a few years ago when, upon sorting through a compilation of photos, words and illustrations both Lauren and Callum had made, they decided to share the memories of their epic journey in order to inspire others to take the plunge and do the same.

The hardbound book features 208 pages brimming with photos, words and illustrations and looks like the ideal accompanying piece for anyone’s coffee table. It is available to purchase from Lauren and Callum’s Kickstarter page here.
