Vans have been unfairly judged by many as incredibly boring motor vehicles. Generally associated with family life or shuttle work, a van is probably the last thing car enthusiasts would think of if they want to have motoring fun.

But then we’ve stumbled upon an Instagram hashtag that is sure to open everyone’s eyes to the wondrous world of four-wheel camping. Guys, we present to you #vanlife. We can’t remember being more excited and inspired while browsing through photos clustered together by a hashtag.

So, yeah: There’s the so-called “van life” culture out there. People literally living in their vans. People bringing their vehicles to far-flung places where they can’t access Facebook or Netflix. Just themselves, their loved ones, their vans, their most essential stuff, and nature.

Before scrolling down to see the images we’ve compiled, a fair warning: You might get the itch to purchase a van after this.
