USA & Canada

In 2018 my wife and I spent seven months living in a van in the USA, seeing 35 states and 35 National Parks during our 35,000km journey. When we left there we only crossed the border, moving to Canada to live and work for two years with most of that time spent in Banff National Park. I was spoilt by the landscapes there and it remains one of my favourite places on Earth.
