- Ten years ago, I lived and worked in Italy. In this video, I share a little bit about that former life - and how different it is experiencing Italy now on my own terms. From our base in Cortina d'Ampezzo, we explore Tre Cime di Lavaredo, Lago di Braies and also climb through a network of World War 1 trenches and tunnels built into the side of a mountain. This is my third and final video from the Italian Dolomites -- excited to catch you up on everything van life in the next video. Happy New Year Ya'll :)

Hey :) I’m Christian Schaffer, and I’ve lived on the road full-time since May 2018. This journey began in 2013 when I left the corporate world to build my career as an outdoor adventure & travel photographer. As a semi-minimalist, I eventually decided to donate/sell most of my belongings and move into my 4x4 Nissan Xterra. After 14 months of SUV living and falling madly in love with the open road - I bought a van and hired a team to build it out. Van life enables me to experience and document the beauty of our natural world on a whole new level, all while having my home and office nearby. My hope is that by sharing my own personal highs and lows along this (sometimes) wild journey, you might be inspired to hit the road or spend more time outdoors. Maybe one day I'll see you out on that open road..
*My van is a 2019 Ram ProMaster 1500 High Roof, 136" WB with 36K miles* 🚐

With only a few years until retirement I left a comfortable, secure, state government job to go into nursing and I have not looked back. It is necessary to get rid of what no longer serves us, including negative or toxic people in our lives. Thanks for sharing your story.
This inspires me so much! The part about quitting your job to follow your dreams really hit hard. Been working on that one for a while with a few false starts. Hopefully one day I can be where you're at.
You are a beautiful soul . I’m sure your inner happiness reflects in your beauty . I’m 61 and embarking on van life next month . I hope I’ll be able to rekindle the inner light I have lost over the last few years . 💕💕
Amazing footage and content. The soul searching never ends, but you've found your niche for now. You are very talented. Best wishes for 2022.
Great video
Christian, you have Introduced A whole new possibility of life for me. I've always dreamt of doing literally exactly what it is that you do, and the fact that someone so beautiful, wise, successful, resourceful, humble, yet,fiercely confident accomplishes such true human fulfillment is so mind blowing to me. For the longest time I've been seeking new people to aspire to learn something from that I genuinely feel a deep resignation with. For what it's worth, I don't know if you read these comments often, but thank you from the bottom of my heart. Thankyou.
Beautiful views 😃
Fantastic!!!
Beautiful video.
"I had no life outside of work and I spend my days dreaming of escaping far away into the mountains" I thinks this is also me :) thank you I realized myself.
”Feed your curiosity, because you never know, where it might lead" so true 🙂
there's nothing better than shaking things up and making it to the other side happier than you imagined💐✨
Your story telling, adventures, and cinematography always stop me in my tracks. Today, I told a client that I had a very important meeting to go to just so I could watch this video. Completely captiviting... don't stop... adventure on...
Holy cow. Those images and cinematography is some of the most clear and crisp I’ve ever seen. And the Italian Dolomites are my most favorite mountains in the world!!! Thanks for sharing!! ❤️
I get goosebumps! i know the feeling.. amazing b-roll of a amazing nature :D
Stunning. Simply stunning! 😍
This might be one of your best videos to date. I love the photage and the story telling. Well done.
The beauty of “Ladinia”, an ancient mountain culture and language still alive here. There is another dimension to discover when you return…
Thank you! Always enjoy your creations! So cool!
Love the landscape shots. Can't wait for more. Thanks for sharing.
