Hey :) I’m Christian Schaffer, and I’ve lived on the road full-time since May 2018. This journey began in 2013 when I left the corporate world to build my career as an outdoor adventure & travel photographer. As a semi-minimalist, I eventually decided to donate/sell most of my belongings and move into my 4x4 Nissan Xterra. After 14 months of SUV living and falling madly in love with the open road - I bought a van and hired a team to build it out. Van life enables me to experience and document the beauty of our natural world on a whole new level, all while having my home and office nearby. My hope is that by sharing my own personal highs and lows along this (sometimes) wild journey, you might be inspired to hit the road or spend more time outdoors. Maybe one day I'll see you out on that open road 🚐
*My van is a 2019 Ram ProMaster 1500 High Roof, 136" WB with 48K miles*

Pure art. Every shot is a painting. The cinematography, the colour grading, the editing, the sound design - everything is so well done. Knowing that it’s worth it to send a drone up high to shoot a beautiful overhead that’ll be a one second shot. (And driving while you’re operating it - not easy) Those skills all serve the writing and storytelling. We’re so glad you do this. It’s gotta be tough, but it’s so appreciated.

Christian - Echoing the sentiments of MANY commenters who are inspired by your storytelling posts… you’re an inspiration and one who has perspectives, authenticity, ‘raw’ sharing, and joy that resonates with us all. Thank you for sharing along your journey! Although from much different walks of life (as a single dad raising my kiddos with total focus going on 17 years now… but have now just left the nest… it’s a surreal time transitioning from the 3 of us at home, to just me having given most of my adult life to carrying for them)… I find myself at a crossroads as well (something you’ve helped express yourself that we all face in our own ways). So many things you share… speak to the soul and remind us (as you say in this video) “You and I, we’re travelers… and we’re only passing through.” Learning to embrace that is harder than it sounds! But it’s been refreshing watching the world through another’s eyes, including your authentic sharing the past year of watching your digital canvas… and learning that endless opportunities exist, and how ‘passing through’ will often present endless twists, turns and possibilities… even when one is scared, stuck in time, or spinning like a top at the world passing by. Thank you for helping remind us to embrace change & remove limitations along the way! Wishing you continued safe & blessed journeys ahead! 😊 p.s. by the time of this video, hopefully the ankle is back to full strength!

Christian, thanks for sharing your life on the road and where it has taken you personally. The tone of your latest videos shows how ready you are to take a rest emotionally and physically. Living on the road and creating content day after day, year after year, with your ability to support yourself is based on a social media platform's willingness to put you at the top of the list must be exhausting. Constantly seeking adventure, putting your most intimate thoughts and feelings in front of hundreds of thousands of people, and processing this alone can't be easy. Doesn't hitting the offramp for a season whilst resting and recharging your batteries in a familiar place seem appealing at this point? With the skills you have developed, you can write your own ticket and work as much or as little as you like. Keep your van services, clean, and ready for adventure. Things don't have to be this or that, they can be this and this. Best of luck and I wish you all the best.

Each moment in time is unique and the passage of time is much more noticeable as you get older. I have had this discussion with my wife a lot as we get older. Most things are perspective and as you get older, the amount of it you carry with you is large compared to the moments you experience. You can really see time moving at 50! I try and enjoy the moments, diving deep into them and I am always trying to find something ahead of me to be curious about, excited about, etc. I am learning to sail, like really learning with instructors and getting out there to hone skills. I found new magic in that feeling of being carried by the wind, fine tuning the sails to push me through the water. I am thinking I will use that skill to push us to new adventures in a boat at some point, which is exciting. In the meantime, I try and find little things in each day. I enjoy hikes more than ever and try to spend my free time wisely. As always, your videography is beautiful and enjoyable to watch. Hope you find it enjoyable enough to continue bringing it to us from time to time.

I love that you keep in or put in your footsteps on the gravel and dirt. Simple things.

as a person who is right now in the middle of a revolution, it's good to know that seeing this extraordinary scenery is one of the few ways to reduce my mental pressure; Thank you Christian.♥️
