This week turned upside down: Stuck at Home, but Adventure Awaits: Vanlife Repair Misery & Epic Comeback!
Feeling the itch to hit the road? Same here! This week turned upside down when my trusty Ford Transit needed repairs. Suddenly, my ford transit van life came to a halt, and stuck at home, boredom became my worst enemy. Procrastination took the wheel, and productivity went on vacation. So monotony, boredom knocked at my door. 
But wait! Just as despair set in, that old age saying became true. One hour you wait for a bus in vain, then three show up all at once.
In my case, look what happened: My birthday plus acceptance to the YouTube Partner program AND a true van resurrection all happened at the end of one boring week! Now  I'm ready to conquer the open road again, unfortunately not without its challenges.
Join me for a monotonous week but with unexpected twists and a look at what happens when vanlife takes a pause. Buckle up for some boring moments, maybe a few tears of frustration, and an epic comeback story in my converted van. This adventure, embracing the ford transit van life, is just getting started! 

Thanks to my barber Kristiaan for making me look presentable again:
