WE MISS THE VAN!! (Wild Swimming in Kamakura) JAPAN 2022

Feeling a bit van/homesick after our time in the big smoke (Tokyo) Wild swimming in the Sea of Japan and reconnecting with nature soothes our soul as we slow down. Join us as we explore the very beautiful Kamakura. Only an hour away from Tokyo and we are on the beach, lost in the beauty of nature. Swimming in the sea in Japan seems like a fantasy, but in today’s vlog it became a reality. After the mayhem of Tokyo it felt great to get back to the sea and enjoy some wild swimming. With sensational views of Fuji at sunset, these were a very magical few days.

⤈ WHO WE ARE ⤈
We are Philly and Keely and we live full time in our tiny home on wheels Martha. After building our DIY home in a Citroen Relay camper we spent a year living on the streets of London before quitting our jobs only to be met with lockdown. Then we took our van further than she had ever been before to the very beautiful Turkey. Enroute we stopped off in Spain for a few weeks where we experienced every van lifers worst nightmare, we were robbed and they stole all valuables in our van. But now we are back on our feet, fully MOT’d and back on the road through Europe and beyond!!
CHANGE OF PLAN!! Now we are in TOKYO lol!
