Van Life in The Arctic - Part ONE - Living The Van Life

Get all you LTVL swag here: https://www.livingthevanlife.com

Winter Content has always been a huge hit here on Living The Van Life. This winter season, I just was not satisfied with driving to a snowy parking lot and setting up camp. So instead I decided to see what it would take to live in a van in the extreme climate of the arctic. Join me in part 1 of a 3 part series as I drive my 2020 Mercedes 4x4 Sprinter Van to the Arctic Ocean.
