Ashleigh & Luke
Hey! We’re Ashleigh and Luke – a husband-and-wife duo from the UK chasing freedom, adventure, and a life on the road. 🌍🚐✨
In 2024 we quit our 9-5 jobs, sold almost everything, and set off to explore the world. After backpacking through Southeast Asia, we’re now living van life in Australia — discovering hidden gems, small towns, coastlines, and the reality of life on the road.
On this channel you’ll find van life Australia vlogs, travel tips, and behind-the-scenes of our journey — from the highs and freedom of off-grid living to the challenges of long travel days.
Subscribe to join the adventure as we share what van life in Australia is really like, plus the stories we collect along the way.
A&L ✨

✨ Hey everyone! ✨
We’ve been taking a short break while spending some time back home in the UK 🇬🇧 At first, we weren’t sure if we’d film during this trip, but we decided instead to just be fully present and appreciate time with our family and friends ❤️
Tomorrow we land back in Australia 🇦🇺 and we’re so excited to catch you all up—both on what we got up to before leaving Australia, and of course what’s happening now that we’re back!
Thanks for sticking with us—it means the world 🫶.
We can’t wait to share the next chapter with you very soon!

To everyone watching our daily van life vlogs – THANK YOU! 🙏🚐
Whether you've liked, commented, subscribed recently or been with us from the start, we’re so grateful for your support!
As you might’ve seen in the vlogs, we’ve been juggling the job hunt… and we’re now officially working again (just short-term to top up those travel funds 💰✈️).
Turns out, full-time work and daily vlog editing is a bit of a challenge – who knew?! 😂 So Day 5 of our 7-day vlog challenge is running a little late…
BUT the good news is:
📽️ Day 5 & 6 will be combined into one video – dropping tomorrow!
Thanks again for sticking with us – we’re loving sharing our journey with you all ❤️

👋🏼Hey guys!
No Video This Week, But We’ll Be Back next week!
Just a quick update to let you know there won’t be a new video from us this week. We’ve just finished an epic road trip along the Great Ocean Road and have been busy editing all the footage from the Tamworth Country Music Festival…Turns out we captured a lot more than we thought, so it’s taking a bit longer to put it all together. 🤯
We’ll be back with a brand new video next Saturday, and we can’t wait to share it with you!
Thanks for your patience, and we hope you all have an amazing week ahead! 💗

Happy New Year from the both of us!🎉
As we step into 2025, we’re reflecting on what has been an unforgettable year. We’ve just posted the final video in this chapter of our Southeast Asia adventures—a bittersweet moment as we close one incredible journey but gear up for the next: Australia and vanlife! 🚐✨
This milestone feels extra special because, with your support, we achieved our goal of reaching 1,000 subscribers before leaving Southeast Asia! Every like, comment, view, and kind word has meant the world to us. You’ve been with us through bustling cities, serene islands, crazy food experiences, and unforgettable encounters with amazing people and cultures.
A year ago, we had never blogged, knew very little about cameras, and were complete beginners at video editing. It’s been a steep learning curve, but the journey has been so rewarding. We still have so much to learn, but we are truly loving the process of improving our skills, sharing our story, and building this incredible community.
Thank you for coming along with us in 2024. Your overwhelming support has been the driving force behind everything we’ve done, and we’re so grateful for the adventures and memories we’ve shared together.
Here’s to an exciting 2025, filled with new destinations, challenges, and stories to share. We can’t wait to show you what’s ahead as we document our travels across Australia!
Wishing you all an amazing year ahead. Let’s make 2025 unforgettable!
Love,
Ashleigh & Luke 💗

No video from us today! 🙅🏼♀️🙅🏻
Our next vlog will be Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam! 🇻🇳
We had such a good time we filmed 4.5 hours of footage and we were only there for 24 hours! (For reference we normally have 1.5-2 hours worth of footage from 3 days!)
So we’re working on picking the best bits for the vlog which will be out next Sunday! 🎥
In the meantime, here’s some photos for a peak of what we get up to!

WE HIT 100 SUBSCRIBERS ! 🎉
On the 20th of feb, our 1 month travel anniversary, we hit 100 subscribers!!
It may not seem that much to some but as our first milestone it felt significant to hit it on the exact date that marks one month of travelling ✈️ 🌎
Thank you to all of our lovely subscribers, we are very grateful 🥰
P.S there won’t be a vlog tonight as we’ve been doing the Ha Giang Loop this week! (video pending)
Love, Ashleigh & Luke x
