In 2014, Nikki and Jakob Celnik left their corporate jobs in New York City and bought a used Sprinter. They spent the following seven weeks designing and building the van, and then planned a two-year drive from Canada to Argentina. Highlights include mountain biking throughout Canada, climbing in Mexico, getting caught in one of the worst hurricanes ever to hit Baja, and staying with a local family in Colombia. They returned to New York in October with lots of photos and stories to share.
