      <image:title>Hiking - Winter Gear Essentials - Parkas</image:title>
      <image:caption>Everybody loves a big cozy parka! This will be your go to jacket for everyday casual wear while travelling in winter destinations. A parka saved me while exploring Iceland and Finland in some of the coldest temperatures I have ever experienced. I highly recommend getting a longer parka that goes to mid-thigh to keep you extra warm, but shorter parka is still nice for more casual exploring.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Hiking - Winter Gear Essentials - Accessories That Make a Big Difference</image:title>
      <image:caption>Good accessories are often overlooked, but they’re essential in cold weather. Hats &amp; Beanies: A warm hat helps retain body heat. Scarves &amp; Neck Warmers: Protect your neck and face from wind. Gloves or Mittens: Insulated, weather-resistant options work best. Thermal Socks: Wool or wool-blend socks keep feet warm and dry.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Flying: Main airports in the South Island: Christchurch (largest and most recommended), Queenstown, Dunedin. Main Airports in the North Island: Auckland, Wellington. I only suggest flying to Wellington if you plan on taking the ferry to the South Island. (info below) Most international flights arrive in Auckland first, where you can transfer to a domestic flight to the South Island. As of 2025, there are many direct international flights into Christchurch from places like Australia, China, Fiji, Singapore, and the United States (San Francisco).</image:caption>

      <image:caption>There are 3 major airports you can fly into: Bodo (4 hour ferry from Reine - book your ticket from Bodo to Moskenes HERE) Narvik (5 hour drive from Reine) Leknes (1 hour drive from Reine, but more expensive for flights &amp; car rentals) Bodo or Narvik tends to have the cheapest flights and car rentals, while Leknes is the closest central airport. Coming from North America, we have quite a long journey to get there, so we like to stay in Bodo for one night before picking up our rental car and taking the ferry over.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Then drop down the fan unit into the flange and make sure that it can open and close all the way before screwing the fan onto the flange. Make sure the wire for the fan is accessible and not tucked up away into the flange before you attach the fan unit. Not necessary but at this point we trimmed off the excess butyl tape that was sticky out past the flange.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Van Conversion - Maxx Air Fan Install - The fan is fully installed!</image:title>
      <image:caption>Allow 24 - 48 hours to fully dry and then spray some water consistently over the lap sealant to make sure no leaks occur. Now we’re ready to cut out holes for the windows!</image:caption>

      <image:title>Van Conversion - Maxx Air Fan Install</image:title>
      <image:caption>Once the base was connected to the fan unit we used a powered caulking gun and applied self-leveling lap sealant on top of each screw on the flange and around the edge of the butyl tape/flange. The self-leveling sealant will quickly level out so don’t go crazy with the amount.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Van Conversion - Maxx Air Fan Install - Would you trust Chris with cutting holes in your van?!</image:title>
      <image:caption>Time to cut some holes in our brand new van! Safe to say most van builders really dread taking this step but it really wasn’t that bad. Make sure to triple check your measures before you make any cuts and everything will work out.</image:caption>
    </image:image>
    <image:image>

      <image:title>Van Conversion - Maxx Air Fan Install</image:title>
      <image:caption>Using a drill and a drill bit create 4 bigger holes on each corner of the tape outline (make sure the drill bit is meant metal and that it’s wide enough for the jigsaw blade to fit comfortably into the hole). Take the Jigsaw with a metal cutting Jigsaw blade and place the blade down into the holes you’ve just drilled out. Now that you have the holes in each corner all you have to do is make straight lines connecting each hole in the corners.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Van Conversion - Maxx Air Fan Install</image:title>
      <image:caption>We then took the template from the inside and placed it on the roof, matching the center hole in the ceiling with the center hole on the template (to help keep the template in place put a nail through both center holes). Once we had the template all lined up we used a sharpie and traced around its edges and then placed tape around the outline.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Van Conversion - Maxx Air Fan Install</image:title>
      <image:caption>To mark the center on the roof we drilled pilot holes in the center of the template and on all 4 corners through the van ceiling. These will be used as reference points when we move up onto the roof as it’ll be easier to use the jigsaw on the roof.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Van Conversion - Maxx Air Fan Install</image:title>
      <image:caption>We did it, our first cut out in the van is done! To protect the freshly cut metal from rust we filed down any sharp edges and applied Paint &amp; Primer to prevent the possibility of rust forming.</image:caption>

      <image:loc>https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6504362f7f13660dbe4c142d/3a1002b4-2b24-44f3-a901-bd451cc124e4/Van+build+maxx+air+fan+camper+van+diy+van+life+fernweh+5.jpg</image:loc>
      <image:title>Van Conversion - Maxx Air Fan Install</image:title>
      <image:caption>Make sure you pay attention to where the metal clips are because this will determine the orientation of the fan and how it opens. We then placed the flange of the fan on top of the butyl tape and screwed it down into the roof of the van. It’s a good idea to alternate sides when screwing down the screws and don’t go all the way tight until all screws are roughly 90 percent drilled down. This will help the flange go down evenly.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Van Conversion - Maxx Air Fan Install</image:title>
      <image:caption>First we created a template of the inside section of the fan (approx 14” by 14”) then taped it to the ceiling on the inside of the van.</image:caption>
    </image:image>
    <image:image>
      <image:loc>https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6504362f7f13660dbe4c142d/df8b426b-e920-4e5a-a7c4-1a10289b574e/Van+build+maxx+air+fan+camper+van+diy+van+life+fernweh+1.jpg</image:loc>
      <image:title>Van Conversion - Maxx Air Fan Install</image:title>
      <image:caption>Before moving onto the next step we used plastic sheets and created a net under where we were going to cut so that any metal shards would be caught and wouldn’t scratch the floor (possibility of rust forming).</image:caption>
    </image:image>
    <image:image>
      <image:loc>https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6504362f7f13660dbe4c142d/6468ee2f-f112-48d0-b299-92f25436f43e/Van+build+maxx+air+fan+camper+van+diy+van+life+fernweh+7.jpg</image:loc>
      <image:title>Van Conversion - Maxx Air Fan Install</image:title>
      <image:caption>Next we laid down butyl tape approximately an inch away from the perimeter of the cut out which will act as a sealant under the Maxx Air Fan. We doubled up the butyl tape on the sections of the roof that are lower so that once the Maxx air fan flange was placed onto it would lay level.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Photography - Travel Photography - What’s in our camera bag? - Sony FE 24-70mm F2.8 GMII</image:title>
      <image:caption>The 24-70 f2.8 is the lens we use the most! It’s the most versatile lens and it would be our suggestion for someone looking to buy their first lens. With it’s wide focal range you can shoot vast landscapes and punch into the same landscape with amazing compression results. The compression is also great for portraits if that’s what you’re into. The 2.8 aperture is better in low light situations and has a greater ability to capture fast-moving subjects. The lower the aperture your lens is will also allow you to create more of that “dreamy” quality that comes with a shallow depth of field.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Photography - Travel Photography - What’s in our camera bag? - Peak Design Clip</image:title>
      <image:caption>This is such a great tool to have if you’re a hiker or just want easy access to your camera in general! It clips onto your backpack so that your camera is accessible at all times. It also helps distribute the weight a bit better so not all your gear is on your back. 100% recommend!</image:caption>

      <image:title>Photography - Travel Photography - What’s in our camera bag? - Sony FE 16-35mm F2.8 GMII</image:title>
      <image:caption>Another must have lens is a wide angle! There will be scenarios where you can’t fit the whole scene into a frame even at 24mm. You’ll need a wide angel lens for small spaces like cabins and cars and other times you’ll be in front of a huge mountain and the only way to fit it in the frame will be with a wide angel. This lens can also help with showcasing scale where you have smaller subjects in a vast landscape. The 2.8 aperture is better in low light situations and has a greater ability to capture fast-moving subjects. The lower the aperture your lens is will also allow you to create more of that “dreamy” quality that comes with a shallow depth of field.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Power bars are great for travelling and for at home! It’s a great way to have all your gear charging up at once in one location. This power bar is great because it has 3 different style ports for charging (USB-C, USB and standard North American Plugs).</image:caption>

      <image:title>Photography - Travel Photography - What’s in our camera bag? - UV Filters &amp; Polarizers</image:title>
      <image:caption>Having a UV filter on my lens has saved me from smashing the glass on the actual lens a few times now. We recommend having a protective covering such as a UV filter simply to protect it from scratches and breaks. A polarizer is something that will help with shooting mid-day. We try to avoid shooting mid-day because the lighting isn’t great, but in some situations it’s necessary. A polarizer will help cut water glare, smooth harsh lighting, and help you recover colours. Make sure you choose the right ones that are the same thread size as your lens. Hoya and K&amp;F Concept are brands that we’ve found to be realiable.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Photography - Travel Photography - What’s in our camera bag? - Manfrotto Tripod</image:title>
      <image:caption>We don’t use our tripod that often but certain scenarios require one. If we aren’t with friends then we will use the tripod to take photos of both of us together and of course we use it for astro and darker lighting situations. We’re thinking of upgrading to a Peak Design Tripod because it’s more stable, lightweight and stands taller when fully extended.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>The Action X30 bag is an absolute beast of a camera bag! It’s a great travel bag and perfect for day hikes. Offering 30L in a compact, durable bag that allows fast access to gear.

      <image:title>Photography - Travel Photography - What’s in our camera bag? - Sony A7R V</image:title>
      <image:caption>The A7R V is our go to main body. This camera is a beast and after using it in Namibia we’re so stoked with it’s performance. The autofocus and tracking in combination with its fast shutter speed we were able to capture some amazing photos of animals on the game drives. We also love that this camera has an in-body stabilization which really helps when you’re trying to film video without a tripod. Without going to crazy into specs here are some of the best features we like about this camera. Touchscreen Display Ultra Fast Autofocus Full-Frame CMOS Sensor Fast Subject and Eye Detection 4K 60p &amp; 8K 24p video recording 61 MP Dual SD Card Slots</image:caption>

      <image:title>Photography - Travel Photography - What’s in our camera bag? - DJI Air 3 - Fly More Combo</image:title>
      <image:caption>Another great drone but this one has some different features that we really like. This drone has battery life of 45 minutes and can fly up to 12 km from the controller, which is insane! It also has a 3X zoom which can provide compression or photograph scenes that are much further away. Keep in mind this drone is much bigger and weighs more than the mini but that also helps with wind resistance and stability.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Photography - Travel Photography - What’s in our camera bag? - DJI Mini 4 Pro - Fly More Combo</image:title>
      <image:caption>This is a fantastic drone overall but we especially love it for travel because of its small size and it’s lightweight! Another great benefit of this drone is that is can shoot vertical which is really useful in tight spots and the quality isn’t diminished when cropping to achieve a 16:9 frame for social media.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Going to the Sun Road One of the most iconic scenic drives in the US, this 51 mile winding road passes alongside glacial lakes, alpine forests, and huge sheer cliffs. This impressive feat of engineering was constructed between 1919 and 1933 using 490,000 pounds of explosives. Vehicles longer than 21ft and wider than 8ft wide are prohibited between Avalanche Creek and Rising Sun as the turns are too tight to pass.  Vehicle registration is required during May through September.  Book Here</image:caption>
