The Great American Road Trip! Maine is Full of Strange Surprises (Van Life USA)

After the chaos we found last week in Acadia National Park, we decided to head away from the coast and explore the backwoods of Maine in our van. A vast wilderness that we could spend months getting lost in (probably literally) and home to the Grand Canyon of Maine - Gulf Hagas. As much as we would love to stay longer, we have to keep moving south. We find ourselves on a beautiful Schooner called Olad, experiencing Maine in a way like no other, before stumbling across a museum full of Bigfoot footprints, replica mermaid skeletons and a million other cryptids that have us thinking we've walked into a real life X-files case 👽 ↡ SAVE FOR YOUR OWN TRAVELS! ↡ 📍 Gulf Hagas (https://goo.gl/maps/oioKn2QzmciWX2Ct8) 📍 Stephen King's House (https://goo.gl/maps/rXaLntRquP2jqFUw6) 📍 Camden (https://goo.gl/maps/vkrGrikxcLdi7zsk8) 📍 Schooner Olad (https://g.page/SchoonerOlad?share) 📍 International Cryptozoology Museum (https://goo.gl/maps/wkgfvPC6dxiPYLwB9) 📍 Portland (https://goo.gl/maps/VM23h73iPapS75tVA) + ↠ WANT ALL OF OUR PARK UP LOCATIONS?

We spent the past 2 years road tripping as much of Europe as we could, from the wild coasts of Portugal to the Syrian border in Turkey, tackling lockdowns and a van re-build along the way. But now, we're feeling like a new challenge. In the summer of 2022, we'll be shipping our van from the UK to Canada, on a mission to drive her all the way to Mexico baby! 🇲🇽 🌵 #vanlife #vanlifediaries #vanlifeusa
