Helen Laing runs three businesses out of her camper van and loves the financial freedom it gives her
“My belief is that we spend a lot of time paying to live in one place while dreaming of being elsewhere,” says Helen Laing, 41.
“The furthest I’ve been is Norway, travelling through the Netherlands. I mostly travel around the coast of the UK, and I hang out in the South West especially, as that’s where my parents are. I’ve been to Wales and Scotland and I’m going to Ireland in September.” While saving money has been helpful, and given Helen career options, it wasn’t the main motivator in her move.
“One of my jobs is a complete contrast to my lifestyle – it’s marketing for luxury hotels and all my clients have been lovely and come on the transition with me. The second is an e-commerce business, selling small travel containers so you can take liquids on planes.“The third is Vanlife Hub… I plan to create physical places, where vanlifers can access vital services, such as refilling water, emptying waste, washing , and a community.
She also has “a very forgiving mother” who gets her post, as otherwise she wouldn’t have an address. “Most vanlifers have friends or family who provide an address for them.”
