Erika and Nicolas say if you\u2019re thinking about taking a long trip, do it now. \n\nThat\u2019s what they decided when they realized they were just working and not really living. They found a modified Land Rover, drove it from their home in Switzerland to Belgium, and shipped it across the ocean to Halifax. They\u2019ve been driving across North America ever since as part of a year-long Pan-American road trip. \n\nWhile they were in Riding Mountain National Park, we sat down with them on a dock near sunset to ask them about their journey so far. We talk about disappointments, Instagram, van life and how living in close proximity to each other is working out for them.\n\n\nThru Here releases new episodes every Thursday. \n\nSeason one of Thru Here takes place in Riding Mountain National Park, a vast forested oasis among Manitoba\u2019s hundreds of kilometres of prairie, and a destination for many travellers.\n\nThru Here is recorded on Treaty 2 territory. The land is the traditional territory of the Anishinaabeg, Cree, Oji-Cree, Dakota and Dene Peoples and the homeland of the Metis Nation. The land is also used by Indigenous nations from Treaties 1, 3 and 4.\u2028\u2028\n\nCheck out thruherepod.com for extended content and to learn more about Riding Mountain National Park. \u2028\u2028While you're there, sign up for Thru Here\u2019s e-newsletter to stay in the know. \n\nFollow us on social media, we\u2019re @thruhere on Tumblr, Pinterest, Twitter, Instagram and Facebook.
