Freezing Our Way Through Paddle Boarding in Wales
We thought paddle boarding in Wales would be a breeze… but reality had other plans. Between surprise permits, expensive life jackets, and the not-so-great idea of diving into March waters, this “simple” adventure turned into something else entirely. Thank you for being here with us as we stumble, float, and freeze our way through this journey. It might not have been perfect, but maybe that’s what made it fun. Stick around, because the next adventure is right around the corner 👀 Would you brave paddle boarding in freezing waters? Let us know in the comments, we love hearing your stories 💬 ___________________________________ 🌍 Welcome to The Basten Journey We’re Bradley & Jordan, two creative idiots chasing sunsets, good food, and the freedom of life on the road in our self-built campervan.

Inside Our Off-Grid Tiny Home on Wheels | FULL VAN TOUR
We’re kicking off the next chapter of The Basten Journey with a full tour of our freshly built Peugeot Boxer L2H3 camper van — and we couldn’t be more excited to finally share her with you. After building our first micro camper back in 2023 and touring parts of the UK, we knew van life was where we felt most alive. Fast forward to 2025 (with a few roadblocks along the way), we’re back - better, stronger, and with a van that’s everything we dreamed of. This time, we focused more on styling and function, while the incredible team at Campervan Explorers brought our vision to life with their craftsmanship. Phoebe is fully off-grid, beautifully designed, and ready to help us live, work, and travel full-time. We hope you enjoy this (not-so-little) tour of our new home - and we can’t wait for you to join us as we hit the road again. Let the new adventures begin! 💬 What do you think of Phoebe? Could you live in a van like this? Let us know in the comments!

The End of Our Journey – NC500 Final Chapter
We didn’t expect this to be our final chapter in Scotland… but life had other plans. In the last part of our Scottish Highlands road trip, we soak in the beauty of the mountains one last time and reflect on the journey we embarked on in Pleebo. And maybe... that’s exactly what we needed. Thank you for joining us on this wild ride through Scotland. This isn’t goodbye — it’s just the end of this chapter. We’ve got something big coming next week… so make sure you're subscribed 👀 Which moment from the NC500 series stuck with you the most?
