Chasing light, roads and quiet places — from the cab of a van.

A journal of camper travels: locations, routes, photos and films from somewhere between here and the next horizon.

Hi, I'm Vladimir.

I live, work and photograph out of a converted van, moving slowly through landscapes worth slowing down for.

For the last few years I've been full-time on the road, chasing weather, light and the kind of silence you only find a long way from a city. What started as a few weeks off turned into a slow loop across Europe and beyond — one ferry, one dirt road and one cold morning at a time.

Every trip is an event: I load the geo-points I drove, the route draws itself, and the photos & video I shoot get pinned to the map by the time they were taken. Sub-events break a trip into the hikes, cities and detours inside it.
