Camper vans have come a long (long) way since the OG models your parents and their parents grew up with. Many of today’s rigs are built not just for living on the road but for living and working in style — some offer premium features that rival most modern studio apartments. Case in point: Remote Vans. The company’s latest three camper van models are designed for modern digital nomads with enough amenities to make you at least consider trading in your house keys for a life on the road.

Each of the three camper van models — Friday, Oasis, and Aegis—is born from a stock Mercedes-Benz Sprinter van. Straight off the production line, it’s arguably the most capable and tech-forward platform on the market, designed for easy living on the road. But Remote Vans goes well beyond the stock platform, customizing each of the three models to within an inch of its life.

On the inside, every model is outfitted with all the comforts of home. The Queen Bascule Bed system and Vanhalla Sleeper Seat provide plenty of space for relaxing by day and snoozing at night. The decked-out galley features a stainless steel sink and premium appliances, including a 700W microwave, a 65-liter fridge/freezer, and a portable 1,800W induction cooktop. Scratchproof Italian composite and a solid surface countertop provide a durable place to prep meals on the go. The full-featured bathroom setup includes separate fresh and gray water tanks and a recirculating indoor shower with plenty of hot water so you can actually keep clean on the go (a rare luxury for van lifers). The best part? Starlink Internet is standard on every model.

Remote Vans’ MoPoWa System is what really separates these three models from almost every other camper van on the road. At its core is a 51V Lithionics Neverdie Power System with 16.8kWh of battery storage and a built-in reserve. A massive 3,000W inverter (with a 5,500W boost) keeps every power outlet and appliance humming, including the onboard air conditioner and water heater. It’s all topped up by a 190W solar panel designed to keep you going almost indefinitely while on the go. Bonus: There’s a 30-amp shore power inlet for lightning-fast power-ups at camp.

Every model is well-equipped inside and out. But what separates the entry-level Friday from its “bigger” brothers is a long list of off-road-centric features. The Oasis adds an LED lightbar, a fender armor kit, a 45-gallon long-range fuel tank, and an onboard air compressor, among many other things. The top-of-the-line Aegis has all of the above, plus additional overlanding-friendly amenities, like a beefier suspension kit, skid plates, expedition-worthy storage, and high-powered LED grill lights.

The base-level Friday camper van starts at just over $200,000. While that price tag seems steep, even this “value” model comes well-equipped with enough features to satisfy all but the most hardcore off-road-loving nomads. Upgrading to the Oasis costs $238,500, and the flagship Aegis runs just north of $250,000. Bottom line: They certainly aren’t “cheap.” But when you consider that 20-year financing options are available, you could easily trade living in a traditional home for life on the road and maybe even save a bit of money in the process.

Camping with a view of the sunset over mountains

There are so many amazing camping apps out there, but Dyrt is one of my favorite apps for finding campgrounds, RV parks, glamping sites, and reviews to help you make informed decisions. Their premium offering, Dyrt Pro, already gives members access to many extra filters and tools to help users find exactly what they're looking for. But there's a brand-new feature called Drive Time that promises to be particularly helpful.

Drive time is a new tool that allows campers to instantly find campsites within a predetermined amount of driving time from their current location. If you already have Dyrt Pro, try it out by clicking "Drive Time" on the map. Then, use the toggle to indicate your preferred driving time. The app will then give you all options that match your specifications.

Camping's popularity continues to grow, and outdoor enthusiasts are seeking less crowded solutions, from off-grid dispersed camping to luxury glamping. As a full-time traveler, I can attest that farm camping strikes the perfect balance between the two. I've camped in a lavender farm nestled in the California hills, an apple orchard in the heart of New England, and in an Airstream in Washington state's lush rainforest. These alternatives offer the natural respite of a campsite with the authentic charm of farm life.
Are you wondering how to find the perfect farm camping stay and what to expect once you get there? Here's everything you need to know to find and book the perfect farm-side experience.

Make overlanding even cooler with EcoFlow’s Wave 3 portable air conditioner
With the right solar setup, this all-in-one climate control system will keep you cozy off-grid indefinitely.

Overlanding purists may sneer at the idea of bringing boatloads of tech into the backcountry. But, if you're someone who likes hardcore off-road exploration and a healthy dose of tech-heavy creature comforts, there's never been a better time to be alive. With that in mind, EcoFlow just debuted the latest iteration of its Wave portable air conditioner, and it's every bit as cool as it sounds.

The brand, best known for its best-in-class portable power stations, took more than two years of user feedback into account before releasing the Wave 3. This next-gen version is smaller, lighter, and more powerful than its predecessors with enough oomph to cool or heat spaces ranging between 118 to 183 square feet. Think: Teardrop travel trailers, compact RVs, or even ground tents. EcoFlow claims the unit can lower temps by up to 15 degrees Fahrenheit in just 15 minutes with 1,800 watts of cooling power, or raise the temperature by 17 degrees Fahrenheit with up to 2,000 watts of heating power. Translation: Year-round off-grid climate control.
