Take A Bow

In 2012, Deena and Ivan sold or gave away everything they owned. They “slow travel”, which means they stay in one location for some time to allow the culture of a place to color their souls.

At first, they squeezed everything they needed into 2 suitcases, 2 carry-ons, and 2 computers. With only that, they went around the world for 5 years, usually staying in one country for three months.

In 2017, upon arriving in Florida from Panama, they purchased a used Mercedes Sprinter van conversion. Since then, they’ve been living full-time with everything they own, of course, in their Sprinter.

The “slow travel” style hasn’t changed by living in the van, except maybe it became even slower during the pandemic. Most of the pandemic was spent in various places in Mexico and the United States.
