Support Your Wanderlust for Adventure and Travel in an Urban Escape Vehicle, with Melody King

Posted on June 24, 2020June 24, 2020 By Exploration Local
Adventure, Camping, Outdoor, Scenic Drive, Van Life

The #VanLife movement has taken over social media with more than 7.3 million mentions on Instagram alone.

Breathtaking photos of people who have sold their world belongings, purchased a van and headed out on the open road leave followers dreaming of a simpler life and living a bit of the nomadic hippie lifestyle. While not everyone can shed the 9am-5pm life, become a minimalist and travel the world in a van, Urban Escape Vehicles has made it possible to experience the excitement of the #VanLife.

The Camper Van rental business has become a form of adventure tourism based on the idea of living a self-sustained mobile lifestyle. UEV’s are perfect for use as transportation AND basecamp for all of your favorite outdoor activities. Imagine the freedom of being able to spend the day cruising the Blue Ridge Parkway, visiting your favorite State Park or National Forest without having to pitch a tent or head back to a hotel. Your self-sustained UEV camper van allows you to spend more time exploring and less time driving. 

Waterfall viewing, weekend camping trips, exploring the Scenic Blue Ridge Parkway, beach trips, or even traveling out west to the Grand Canyon.

The possibilities are endless to STAY Where You PLAY!
