Our ultimate 4 week California & Nevada roadtrip travel guide

You are between jobs, have some time on your hands and want to see somewhere new? This was us and we decided we would spend 1 month on the road making our way through California (& Nevada) in a campervan. We started in San Francisco, went as far South as San Diego and ended our roadtrip in Las Vegas.Escape Campervan Joshua Tree State Park

This was all planned rather quickly on our part and we spent many hours searching the internet for inspiration and places to go. Whilst we found many helpful post’s, we did think there was a lot of information missing so I hope we cover some vital parts throughout this blog.
