Measuring in at 6ft 8in (203cm), it’s impressive to see Xavi navigate inside his van, he’s almost taller than the van is long!


A COUPLE OF QUESTIONS

WHY DID YOU MOVE INTO A VAN?

  • The main reason is that people that live in campervans are people that have other types of feelings, that just like to explore the surroundings by ourselves. I think it’s a good lifestyle, you can try and if you don’t like it, just come back to a normal life. I also feel the need to live in contact with nature.

WHAT DO YOU LIKE MOST ABOUT VANLIFE?

  • Every time I park close to the beach and wake up in the morning! I love chasing waves, going surfing then having breakfast, it’s just awesome! The opportunity to just open the sliding door and see the ocean is the best!
