GO-VAN / Julien Roussin & Karolina Krupa

Nomadic Entrepreneurs & Content Creators

"It all began with a bold idea: to sell everything, buy a van, and travel to Mexico to document the journey," shares Julien Roussin, founder of Go-Van. Since that initial spark in 2015, he has remained on the road, driven by the belief that freedom could become a way of life. This is how Go-Van was created: from his desire to build a community centered around a simple, nomadic, and deeply human way of living.

Karolina, his partner and co-pilot for several years, decided to leave the business world to pursue a nomadic lifestyle that allows her to fulfill her dream of exploring the world. Today, along with their son Zak, they have turned their mobile lifestyle into an inspiring platform where travel stories, advice, and human connections come together.

Living life at 100 miles per hour

Julien and Karo have traveled across continents in nine vans while balancing their work as content creators and vanlife entrepreneurs. They are passionate about surfing, hiking, and skiing, and their lives are shaped by the changing seasons and the diverse routes they take!

El Campo

Every autumn, over 500 vans gather by the river for El Campo, a cult festival within the Quebec vanlife community. Amidst music and new encounters, attendees create a welcoming space for sharing, making everyone feel at home.

At Chlorophylle, Go-Van embraces this same philosophy: to live outdoors while being well-equipped; to consume less, but better; and to prioritize local consumption.

Their commitment

The community, adventure, and respect for the environment are among the values that drive the entire Go-Van team. That is why Go-Van has committed to donating 1% of their online store sales to groups and organizations that share their values, such as the Le CIEL foundation, the 1000 tonnes mission, Fairy Creek Blockade, and POW (Protect Our Winters).
