🌍 From Camper to Camping: Dreams, Plans & Plot Twists 🚐🏕️

Read our story in vaNLife Magazine!

Rutger (38) & Ligia (38) met during a salsa night in Colombia, where they lived together for five years. Their love for adventure took them on an incredible journey—from building their own American school bus camper to starting their own eco-friendly campsite in Italy! 🌿✨

But the road to their dream was far from smooth. After months of working on their self-sufficient camper, disaster struck: a fire destroyed their bus. Political unrest in Colombia ultimately pushed them to Europe, where they found a new opportunity. In Abruzzo, they discovered a piece of land filled with ancient olive trees—the perfect setting for their dream: a small-scale off-grid camping near Pescara.

💡 From dream to reality:
✔️ Converting an old school bus into a camper
✔️ Fire and political turmoil forced them to change course
✔️ A fresh start among the olive trees in Italy

Despite setbacks, their campsite @lashamacasacampingabruzzo is now a paradise for nature lovers and adventurers. 100% eco-friendly, fully solar-powered, and a place where freedom comes first.

A heartfelt thank you to our wonderful guests, Evelyne and Ernesto! After spending a few magical days with us at Las Hamacas, helping with our olive harvest 🌿, they surprised us with a beautiful package of gifts all the way from their hometown in Switzerland. 🇨🇭✨

We are so grateful for the time, energy, and love you shared with us. Your thoughtful gifts and kind words truly touched our hearts. 💌 Las Hamacas will always be your home away from home, and you’re welcome back anytime, not just for the olive harvest, but whenever you need a little escape. 🌞🏡

Wishing you all the best, and we can’t wait to see you again! 💚😊

We have finished harvesting our last olive tree. 🌳💚💪🏻

With a 40% reduction in yield compared to last year, we managed to gather every last olive to turn it into our extra virgin olive oil. This was made possible thanks to our centuries-old trees, over 400 years in age 🌳, which today, without any chemicals or fertilizers, give us a product of the highest quality.

Thank you to everyone who gifted us their time and lent a hand in this challenging work. 🤗👊🏻
