About Us
Welcome to Three As A Bird. We are Ryan and Kirsty and our life revolves around adventures on wheels with our furry little best friend, Lottie, and our passion is to share our adventures with you.
A bit of backstory; in 2021, we came to a pivotal crossroads in our lives. We were neck-deep in the monotonous grind of the 9-5 corporate world, clocking in and out of jobs that offered us no joy. We were tired, we were bored, and we felt trapped. We wished for something more meaningful, more exciting, and more fulfilling than the humdrum of everyday life.
And then, we made a life-altering decision. We chose freedom. We chose adventure. We chose to overhaul our lives. We swapped the confines of our offices for the boundless horizons of the world, travelling full time in our motorhome.
Since then, we have embarked on an incredible van life journey, one that has taken us to over 25 countries and counting, each one teaching us so many lessons and leaving us with memories that will last forever. Our home on wheels has taken us from the awe-inspiring fjords of Norway to the sun-kissed beaches of Portugal, with countless adventures in between.
Our mission is to share our travel anecdotes, lessons learned, and the ins and outs of life on the road through this travel blog. Here, you will find practical tips, unique insights and guides on everything you need to know about van life. When we were starting out, we wished that he had a one stop place to get all of the answers to the MANY questions that we had, which is why we wanted to create this for you!
But our goal goes beyond merely sharing our journey. We want to inspire YOU. To inspire you to take that leap of faith, to escape the mundane, to explore the unknown, and to realise your travel aspirations. We hope that through our adventures, you find the courage to step out of your comfort zone and make your own travel dreams come true.
Our journey has taught us that life is too short and the world too vast to remain within the limits of routine. As we continue our travel adventures, we invite you to come along with us…
