The Day I almost Died Scuba Diving in EL SALVADOR

In this episode we continue our Backpacking El Salvador series and we take a day trip from El Salvador's capital San Salvador and arrive at Lake Ilopango. An active volcanic lake. Unfortunately things didn't go according to plan and we suffered a diving emergency. Luckily we had great training and a positive outcome to what could have been a disaster.

We got to see how Pupusas - the national dish of El Salvador are made . We visit the Multi Plaza - one of the main shopping centres in San Salvador.

Thanks for watching and coming on this adventure with us as we TREAD the Globe.

Secure Storage Solution for our VANLIFE Adventure Around the WORLD

In this episode we share how we plan to secure our belongings in our campervan. We redesign the storage area under the bed and create a lockable secure storage area. With Trudy our van being parked in remote locations we decided it was a good idea and would stop us worrying when we go out walking or exploring the local area. Our friend Aaron came up with a great design and we are super happy with the result.

Chris attends he dive medical in preparation for some great diving on our overland adventure and we receive a great gift.

This is by far the most challenging ADVENTURE VANLIFE travel series that we have ever done (and possibly on youtube) one that will definitely change us for ever more. Driving around the world is going to be both a physical and mental challenge and one that will test us to the limit.
