Hotsprings hunting in the desert plains, had to hit them super early to beat that Cali heat. Easing into the hotseat after spending the night camped in a cattle farmers field. The amount of lakes and springs in this zone make all the hot dusty drives a breeze :) #thegoodlife #vippoolfortwo #springshunting #caligold #hotsprings #travelpics #roadtrips #buslife #vanlife #homeiswhereyouparkit #schoolienation #outforadip #poolparty #soakitup #livingthedream #wanderlust #vanlifecaptain #roadwarriors360 #boondocking #calivibes #campvibes #explore #nature #outdoorlife #photoblog https://www.instagram.com/bodhibus/p/BwM6vb-H1ex/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=t34n4q6llbl3

Extremely grateful to have the opportunity write a travel article, for the Comox Valley Collective Magazine this past winter. The new spring issue's theme is the OCEAN, that formless, ever-changing, body of watery love that shapes and heals our West Coast lives in endless ways. Was great to re-live and conclude a such a life changing year and roadtrip with a few of my favourite stories and photos. Make sure to pick up an issue at your neighbourhood coffee shop. Have loved seeing this magazine evolve over the years and continue to create positive and inspiring local content.

This beautiful glow is actually from the smog rising up into Californias National Parks, giving them an air quality worse than downtown LA. The amount of vehicles on state roads is nearing 31 million and these forests are affected by towns as far away as San Fran. Really hoping to switch to an cleaner fuel this year and reduce my emissions. Ironically this was the clearest mountain view of our whole trip back through the States. The worse fire season on record was just around the corner. #sunset #sequioanationalpark #mororock #cali #smog #pollution #bigsmoke #haze #roatrips #buslife #travel #nature #wanderlust #travelblog #mountains #outdoorlife #hiking #explore #climate #getout #nomad #gypsylife https://www.instagram.com/p/BswB_36HcFn/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1myvkqavqwucm

Fishing for the truth, in the gambling seas Caught a dreamfish on my line, and it set me free Sprinkled it with stars, and the tears from eyes Seasoned with love, of the deepest kind Layed it to rest, in the driftwood smoke Next to restless seas, where big waves broke With a meat made of medicine, it showed me the way Through the campfire light, past cactus that swayed I blessed mother earth, with my guitar strings Was dream so real, it unravelled everything #bodhicittabus #dreamfish #bajadreams #gratitude #blessedinthewest #bounty #oceangifts #deserttales #oceanpoetry #roadstories #fishingfortruth #coastalnomad #nature #ocean #love #traveltales #wanderlust #adventuretime (at Baja California Sur, Mexico) https://www.instagram.com/p/BpST9ounCK5/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1rwxy7bqbiwir

Hola!! So I decided to go completely off-grid for the last few months of our northern tour, and really soak up every second :) So stoked to keep the dream alive on IG, and keep sharing all the hidden gems we found, around every turn and river bend. Plenty of road stories, videos and photos to come. Thanks for following along, and sharing all the good vibes! peace 🤙and 💚 #gypsylife #wanderlust #nomads #homewardbound #bodhibus #roaddiaries #baja #bestbuds #brosafari #travelstories #ensenada #northbound #vandiaries #vantours #buslife #wandering #lookingback #westcoastlife #love #gratitude #stoke (at Baja California, Mexico) https://www.instagram.com/p/BocXfpBHcU-/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1wvz8riswbgf2

Had such a rad week caravaning with these two Portlandians along the dusty East Cape trails, before they head to Central America. Epic campfire jams, snorkling, decks sessions, surf lessons, stories, yoga, cards, and bbq's. Some kindred souls on the same road :) Much love amigos, and safe travels! @whistlin_moon_chaser #shipwrecks #lastday #adios #beachlife #surf #baja #outdoors #adventure #newfriends #kindredsouls #travelstories #bodhibus #farawayfriends #eastcape #buslife #vanlife #ranchorelaxo #caravan #thedustytrail (at Baja California Sur, Mexico) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bl4nDP1DZo3/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=j1g5hot5w8p8

Cooling off in the bay, after another scorcher. Definitely had a little heat stoke after a few days of snorkling and exploring the East Cape. #hiddenbays #cabopulmo #eastcape #bajanomad #bajasur #getlost #beachlife #bajalife #scorched #sundrunk (at Baja California Sur, Mexico) https://www.instagram.com/p/BocYgE9Hw3e/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=ne1ru38dnfpk

Posted up next to these super rad Californians @beyondrealityapparel on our first night on the East Cape. Made camp in one of many flood channels that provide a perfect hard pan for car camping right next to the break. They told us a story of a crusty old local at a neighbouring village (9 Palms) that refused to move after a monsoon hit, despite all the warnings. A wave of water came thundering down the ravine and washed him and his RV out to sea. He had to swim back to land with only the clothes on his back :( Tough life lessons in the desert. #extremes #desertlife #vanlife #boondocking #bajasur #eastcape #surftravel #thedunes #lostatsea #amigos #surf #coastalnomads #bodhibus #schoolie #buslife #beachcamping (at Baja California Sur, Mexico) https://www.instagram.com/p/BocayKonfu0/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1v1n932fvo9uf

You start to have very deep respect for the sun when summer roles through the desert. As we drove north through the mountains in early July, we got the most incredible sunset of the trip. It transformed the earth, sea and sky for hours, as thunderheads shot lightning and silhouettes framed the heavens. Anxious thoughts, sweating skin and angry feelings melt away, and all of a sudden, your sad to go.. The sun's work is done, you've survived another day, and that beauty will keep calling you back for the rest of your life. #sunlove #creaturesofthesun #respect #naturelover #nature #desertsun #sunset #sunsetsession #mountains #bajasur #cactus #travel #outdoors #sillouettes #wanderlust #traveltales #roadtrips #mexlife #summer #explore #sun #sunworship #bodhibus (at Baja California Sur, Mexico)
