If we take, we also want to give back
Nature’s wonders are the reason we travel
We want to do our part in ensuring that Mother Nature thrives in the future as well. Without the environment provided by nature, van life has neither meaning nor soul. We contribute to protecting a greener world in the following ways:
"Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizen can change the world; indeed, it's the only thing that ever has."
- Margaret Mead
We plant trees

With every sold product we donate to environmental protection
Our current donations go to Finnish Natural Heritage Foundation & old forests.
We donate thrice a year: at Christmas time, in the spring and in the autumn. Follow us on social media for more details!
We pick up trash
Together with other vanlifers, we take part in the Roam & Renew trash pickup challenge
The goal is not only to clean up after ourselves during van life trips, but also to leave the places we've visited in better condition than when we arrived.
Together, we can make a bigger impact than alone,
and as a group, we can create a movement that transforms the way we think about littering on the road. So, join us in changing attitudes and perceptions, and making a tangible, cleaner difference!
Good attracts good. That’s why, in addition to a positive feeling, we also reward you practically for picking up trash: Collect trash during your travels, whether in Finland or abroad, document it, and share the result on social media – you'll receive a 7% discount on our online store!
