BACKGROUND STORY
We are steps2adventure, better known as Jordan & Annalise. We created the steps2adventure brand to inspire people to explore what the outdoors has to offer. Back in 2019 we always knew we wanted to travel, we were planning backpacking trips, train journeys.. you name it. Thankfully we came across the van life KZbinrs! As soon as we saw this way of life we knew this was it, this is how we want to live and travel. So, we bought a van… Not just any van, she’s a 2007 LWB Mercedes sprinter van, an absolute beast!! We have spent over 2 years converting her in-between work and some little adventures across the UK.
Come along with us for some epic adventures across the UK & Europe and everyday life in-between

[@uncomfortablynumb4124]

Long time lurker (well sort of, dropped in and out) but subscribed when you mentioned that you'd be talking about more in-depth content regarding the history of various things (started with the Coffin trail) and places. This adds depth and interest beyond the casual and incidental.

[@Steps2adventure]

Hi we are trying to add abit of history here and there but at the same time keeping it fun we feel like we want to inspire people to go to somewhere and find out the full history for themselves but at the same time we understand not all people can do that so adding abit in here and there helps alot 😊💯

[@uncomfortablynumb4124]

@@Steps2adventure Absolutely, I'm just saying that there is a HUGE interest in the historical side of things and maybe you could do a second channel with more in-depth content for those that like you say, can't get out and about and explore for themselves. Or even to inspire them to go and visit these place for themselves because you've made it appealing and a place to see for themselves! :)

Not long discovered your channel and am working my way through your back catalogue. Really enjoying your vlog style adventures. You seem to find some great little places, and present it in a great way. Would you be able to mention the what three words locations of the places you go to, particularly when they are off the beaten track. That has been very useful from some of your older vids, but would love to know the new places you are discovering. Keep up the great content, keep smiling, and keep the travels coming. 😊
