The campervan travel trend is on the rise. Converting a van into a home-on-wheels with amenities like a bed and kitchen and driving away to scenic destinations can be the most full-filled and adventurous journey for every ardent traveller. And a doctor couple from the UK is taking on the trend in the most out-of-the-box way. They bought an ambulance and converted it into a campervan to travel the world in style.
Veterinarians Lawrence Dodi and Rachel Nixon officially aim to enter the Guinness World Record for the longest journey in an ambulance.
