My passion for VW campervans began as soon as I was old enough to drive. I bought my first Volkswagen bus in 1967 and drove straight to California, starting a lifetime of van-life adventures. Since then, I’ve crossed Canada six times, explored the U.S. from coast to coast, driven throughout Mexico, and even Hawaii, where I lived for several years.
My most recent journey was shipping my Westfalia from Vancouver BC to Rotterdam and traveling across Europe and the British Isles in 2019. My vans have also been to Burning Man seven times, still carrying a bit of desert dust as a reminder of the memories made. VW campervans are truly one of the great loves of my life, and my next dream adventure is to drive off-road through the Baja Peninsula.
After more than 50 years on the road, sharing these classic Westfalias with travelers visiting Vancouver Island feels natural. I enjoy helping guests experience safe, comfortable, unforgettable road trips across Canada’s most beautiful destinations.
