Help us get our (nomadic) life back on track

Hi, I'm Mitchell, a travel photographer, filmmaker, and an photo educator.

For the past three years, my wife, daughter, and I have been living a dream, exploring South America in our unique home on wheels - a customized Toyota Hilux with an attached camper. But recently, our lives took a dramatic turn.

While driving through Brazil, a routine car repair turned into a nightmare. A lift holding our vehicle broke, resulting in irreparable damage to our beloved camper, our home, my mobile office. The camper was the heart of our travels and work, painstakingly built over time, piece by piece, across different countries. It was a vital tool for reaching remote locations to capture photos and videos.

This incident is a huge setback. It’s a blow to our cherished lifestyle, my ability to make a living and our family's stability. Legal recourse isn't viable because it's a very lengthy path, which likely results in nothing.

But, we’re determined to get back on the road. Our only solution is to find and purchase a new camper. We plan to salvage what we can from our damaged camper and adapt our Toyota Hilux to fit the new setup. This endeavor involves a substantial 2000km journey and extensive work over 2-3 weeks to adapt the car.

We are seeking to raise US $25,000. This amount will cover the cost of the new camper, the required vehicle modifications, and all the travel and living expenses during this challenging transition period.

Your support is crucial for us to overcome this hurdle. Every contribution, whether large or small, gets us closer to resuming our travels. I'm eager to return to creating inspiring content and sharing the world's beauty through my photography and films.

Thank you for considering helping us rebuild our dream. Your support means the world to us.
