❗️GIVEAWAY❗️ Storyteller Overland Beast Mode Full Tour
#storytelleroverland #vanlife #vanconversion
🚐 ENTER TO WIN THE VAN HERE! 🚐 swee.ps/ZzZwUSibd
This week, we're taking a step back from our usual overlanding adventures to giveaway at Storyteller Overland Beast Mode van conversion. The sweepstakes is all a part of a cause that's become very important to us both over the last few months and we're so excited to share it with you today! If you've been around for a while you'll remember that we helped give away a different vanlife van conversion with @A.Race.Against.Blindness back in December 2023. This time we're teaming up with them again to giveaway @StorytellerOverland's top of the line van conversion model: The Beast Mode.
This van is decked out with all the bells and whistles for your overlanding, off-grid van life adventures, and it could be yours for as little as $25. No matter how much you enter in this sweepstakes, know that this van is going to an amazing cause to help support a cure for a rare genetic condition that causes blindness. (The video explains it all, don't worry.) Alright, best of luck and thank you for helping out our friend Luke and others just like him who are in a true race against blindness. ❤️

Hey y'all! We're Chris + Sara (or as you know us, Let’s Be Us), a husband and wife digital nomad travel duo currently working and traveling full time with our pup, Kramer. We've always dreamed of traveling full time, and in May of 2018 we took the leap and made it happen! Today we're balancing work and fun everywhere between the Pacific and Atlantic. From hiking and cycling to tacos and coffee, we're trying to see and experience as much of this world as we can! While our home is currently on wheels in our DIY Sprinter van, our travels take us all around the world.

    Ive said all along, if you're flying recreationally dont put your footage on the internet (for any reason) and dont fly for anyone but yourself (for any reason) and most people do in fact know what they are doing when they fly...let's not be fooled here! When a cop stops you and says do you know how fast you were going, you dont say hell ya at least 10 miles over the speed limit, you say no sir I thought I was doing the speed limit!!!! just as you also say...I thought I was flying recreationally? It's all about what any person is willing to try and get away with! Don't get me wrong there are people who genuinely didn't know but IMO they are far and few.

Since we were not the ones who were choosing the winner and because it was undetermined how long it would take the nonprofit to get in touch with the winner, we deferred people to check with their official page instead of ours. :) The van went to a great guy right out of college and so far he's loving it!

    The first place you visit is the most local famous tortas de chilaquiles with milanessa and they ask you if you want beef or chicken Milanese and green or red salsa. Always have a line they are the best. The second place is Mercado de San Juan they are famous for having exotic meets, insects and some fruits that you cannot find anywhere else in the city. There is a small restaurant with green toldos (no name) like two or three stores from the small entranceway to the "casa de la cultural" where you can take your exotic meets and they ll cook them for you. Also if someone visits it there is a a place where they just sell cheese and bread that they bake there make sure next time you taste the bread with melted cheese and they have an exotic Peruvian cheese with insects that no one else has in the market. Then in Rosseta, the fruit is fig with a glasseado of matcha and filled with pastry cream and berries jam. That is delicious, not only the pastry but the bread is amazing there. Jamaica is a Hibiscus flower drink. Other fav places :) Tacos: El Chupacabras (this is down of a bridge and have a special taco "el chupacabra") if you want more fancy tacos go to "El Califa " Mexican street food in a restaurant: Don Toño Pizza: El perro negro( they also have their own beer. , and Pizzas Amore they also have a place in La Roma but have been opening a lot of new ones lately. Chocolate Store: QueBo, this is in Polanco they have specials for any holiday would try them too. Mexican Street food in a nicer restaurant version for brunch: Peltre Fine Dining: Pujol, Quintonil Experiences: Also should visit "La Cineteca Nacional" A different kind of cinema and some weekend afternoons they play movies outside so that you can sit on the grass and have some local art stores, coffee shops, and bookstores. Also, search for the ballon fests that's also a great time of the year to visit pyramids.
