Vanlife diaries #31: Boulder, Fort Collins & Rocky Mountain National Park

17 October 2021

Last Updated on 18 May 2022

We spent much of this week making our way from Denver to Boulder to Fort Collins, visiting more breweries than are possible to count (although of course I did count and we are up to #95), eating heaps of wonderful food, and chatting to everyone we met along the way.

By Friday, we joined the crowds in Rocky Mountain National Park for a few snowy days of sightseeing and hiking, and then watched as the main road through the park closed for weather. The seasons are changing and it feels like our attempts to outrun the cold are failing miserably…

What we’ve been up to this week

In the last two weeks alone (and largely due to the need to rest my broken toe), we have visited a whopping 26 breweries across Colorado and had some seriously incredible beer. 

And not only that, but we’ve also met some lovely people, including 2 separate couples who are building out a Promaster van similar to ours and who were incredibly eager for the full tour— which I genuinely love giving. We are so thoroughly stoked on vanlife that we’d probably give daily 4-hour seminars if anyone would listen, so getting to show off our layout, storage, and power system is always a treat. 

Invariably it also comes with new information on travelling (we talked to a couple for several hours who’d just been to Baja in their small RV and another which recommend New Mexico as our next stop) and on vanlife in general (we learned a lot about heater options from some new friends!).

I will be the first to admit that we didn’t know much about vans when we moved into ours, and chatting to people more handy or better researched than us has always proved a worthwhile source of vanlife knowledge! Mostly, we just make it up as we go along, but learning new things about our van and possible further customisation always helps.

Here are all the breweries we’ve hit up in Colorado thus far, rated on a 3-star scale (*** being the best) as much for our own records as for your perusal. I’ll come back and update this as we continue through the state!

When we finally decided to head over to Rocky Mountain National Park on Friday morning, it was just in time for a snowy forecast that closed scenic Trail Ridge Road through the park and disrupted all of the walks and hikes we’d been eyeing.

Still, we managed a stroll around Bear Lake and along Many Parks Curve overlooking the plentiful basins carved by ancient glacial activity in the Rocky Mountains.

We were eventually driven back to Estes Park by a particularly strong flurry in the afternoon, but occupied ourselves for the remainder of the evening poking around the eerie Stanley Hotel. 

Although The Shining with Jack Nicholson wasn’t filmed here, it was SET here, as Steven King actually stayed at The Stanley while writing the original novel. Unsurprisingly, they play to the supernatural pretty heavily now and even offer ghost tours through the property.

Our next excursion into the park was to hike to Chasm Lake beneath Longs Peak. Under ordinary circumstances, we would have been tackling the summit of Rocky Mountain National Park’s tallest 14er— as it was (broken toe aside), the weather was absolutely shocking and there’s no way a climb would have been possible. 

By 12pm, the summit was entirely encased in storm clouds, and that’s to say nothing of the ice that had frozen over the boulder field and ledges en route. What would ordinarily have been fun scrambling was now a death-wish.

As a consolation, Chasm Lake is about as good as it gets, a soaring alpine hike with superb views of Longs Peak and the surrounding Rocky Mountains. 

The journey up to the lake was truly beautiful, mostly blue skies with clouds starting to roll through over the final few miles. My toe hurt but felt manageable (a constant pain I could ignore) and it was even fun scrambling up the ice-slicked boulder field (when I wasn’t fearful for my life). 

It was the return journey that got me, and it’s a special kind of suffering to watch all the breathless hikers you passed on the ascent just FLY BY you on the descent while you cry in pain with every step.

I’m glad I got out and saw a small slice of this glorious park before winter rolled in (a foot of snow forecasted this week), but it’s definitely looking like I’ll be off the trail a bit longer. Devastated more than I can say— you’ll currently find me drowning my sorrows in hot springs and seasonal saisons throughout Colorado as we wait for the snow to pass.

  • NICE MINI GUIDE 🇫🇷🌊✨

some of our favourite experiences from last month in this charming town on the French Riviera!

WHAT TO DO
☕️ stroll through Old Town: beautiful alleyways with charming shops + bars (pass by Palais du Justice, Cathédrale Sainte-Réparate de Nice, Église Sainte Rita for photos)
🏖️ Ruhl Plage: picturesque beach club with striped umbrellas + chairs (but the free beach immediately beside it works just as well for a quick dip!!)
🪴 Jardin Albert 1er: leafy park separating central Nice from the Old Town
📸 Colline du Château: elevated park on the headland with excellent views of the coastline
🚃 day trip to Eze + Monaco: both can be done in a single day with public transport or inexpensive Ubers!

WHERE TO EAT/DRINK
🧀 La Cave du Fromager: fondue/cheese restaurant located in a wine cellar in Old Nice, beautiful and amazing food!
🦆 La Route du Miam: intimate 6-table restaurant serving legendary duck— the menu is bascially 3 options, but the duck-fat potatoes are mind-blowing, the wine selection is excellent, and the owners are impossibly charismatic (expect to leave with multiple kisses)
🍨 Finoccio: local-fave ice creamery with endless flavours
☕️ La Claque: small cafe with excellent coffee, matcha, kombucha etc
🍷 La Treille Bar à Vin: natural wine + small plates with charming outdoor seating
🍸 Soho: trendy bar with a good value happy hour 5-8pm
  • paris on (fuji)film 🇫🇷🥐🧀✨

we’d originally planned to spend June climbing in the French + Swiss Alps… but after I had knee surgery at the end of April, we had to pivot to something a little more recovery-friendly.

so we changed our flights from Geneva to Paris and instead spent a couple weeks sipping cocktails, making croissants, wandering through charming galleries, catching up with some of our favourite humans, and racking up steps around the city in an effort to get me hiking-capable asap. 

not exactly the summits we’d planned, but time well-spent all the same 💛 #fujifilmx100vi

  • The famous bowing deer of Nara 🦌✨

The ancient city of Nara is home to around 1,300 sacred deer (believed to be messengers to the gods!) roaming freely around the parks and temples. They are SO cute & friendly, and feeding the deer in Nara was a top highlight of my 6 weeks in Japan 🥹

Tips for visiting the deer:
🦌 head to Nara Park & you’ll find deer everywhere near Todaiji Temple, Kasuga Taisha & Kofukuji. Look for shikadamari (deer meeting spots) & approach respectfully!
🍘 buy shika senbei (deer crackers) for ~¥200 from local vendors. Hold one up, bow & watch the deer bow back!
🚃 get here in ~45min from Kyoto or Osaka by train
🏯 this is a popular day trip, but I definitely recommend staying overnight in a traditional ryokan & eating at some of the amazing local restaurants
⏱️ the park is prettiest early in the morning or around sunset when it’s quieter, the light is soft & the deer are more relaxed

  • DOHA, QATAR 🇶🇦✨

Without the flashy excess of the UAE & Saudi, Doha offers a more authentic slice of the Arabian Gulf, where culture & tradition meet striking modern architecture, world-class art, and a glittering skyline. 

We loved our time in Doha and would highly recommend as a quick stopover next time you’re flying through the Middle East!

WHAT TO SEE
⭐️ Souq Waqif: a buzzing market with spices, textiles & gold, perfect for getting lost + taking photos
⭐️ Museum of Islamic Art: one of the world’s most stunning Islamic art collections
⭐️ Dhow Harbour: traditional wooden boats bobbing in the water with Doha’s skyline behind (great for photography!)
⭐️ Mina District: neighbourhood with colourful pastel buildings & street art, best explored in golden light of late afternoon
⭐️ Fish Market: the most beautiful stained-glass ceiling I’ve ever seen, worth a quick walk through while exploring Mina!
⭐️ Qanat Quartier: a rainbow-hued “Little Venice” with canals, bridges & plenty of great restaurants 
⭐️ Katara Cultural Village: a great place to discover local culture 

HOW MANY DAYS?
we spent 4 days in Doha, but you can see most of the city’s highlights in 2-3 days 

GETTING AROUND
Uber is the best way to get across the city to visit some of the farther places of interest

  • Standing on the rim of one of the largest active volcanoes in the world, with smoke billowing out of the crater right behind us 🌋🔥

Mt Aso National Park is one of Japan’s coolest hiking spots, but still seriously underrated! With craggy lava fields, steaming vents & surreal views in every direction, you can hike right up to the rim of Nakadake Crater (when it’s safe!) and we had this spot completely to ourselves 💃🏻

  • Pivoting away from all the Japan photos for a moment to share a sleeper hit from last year’s travels that didn’t make it onto the feed (because I’m perpetually behind on posting…) → Qatar!!

This small Middle Eastern country was never on my list, but while we were in the region for the 2nd half of last year, we decided to take advantage of the Qatar Airways stopover program (this isn’t sponsored, it’s just a really cool program 😅)

For no extra cost, we were able to build a 4-day stopover into our flights from Oman to Egypt, and we ended up having WAY more fun in Qatar than expected. You don’t need long to explore (you could cram most of the highlights into 2-3 days), but it’s guaranteed to impress!

I’ll share some of our favourite experiences from Doha tomorrow, but WOW, who knew!?

paris on (fuji)film 🇫🇷🥐🧀✨

we’d originally planned to spend June climbing in the French + Swiss Alps… but after I had knee surgery at the end of April, we had to pivot to something a little more recovery-friendly.

so we changed our flights from Geneva to Paris and instead spent a couple weeks sipping cocktails, making croissants, wandering through charming galleries, catching up with some of our favourite humans, and racking up steps around the city in an effort to get me hiking-capable asap. 

not exactly the summits we’d planned, but time well-spent all the same 💛 #fujifilmx100vi

The famous bowing deer of Nara 🦌✨ The ancient city of Nara is home to around 1,300 sacred deer (believed to be messengers to the gods!) roaming freely around the parks and temples. They are SO cute & friendly, and feeding the deer in Nara was a top highlight of my 6 weeks in Japan 🥹 Tips for visiting the deer: 🦌 head to Nara Park & you’ll find deer everywhere near Todaiji Temple, Kasuga Taisha & Kofukuji. Look for shikadamari (deer meeting spots) & approach respectfully! 🍘 buy shika senbei (deer crackers) for ~¥200 from local vendors. Hold one up, bow & watch the deer bow back! 🚃 get here in ~45min from Kyoto or Osaka by train 🏯 this is a popular day trip, but I definitely recommend staying overnight in a traditional ryokan & eating at some of the amazing local restaurants ⏱️ the park is prettiest early in the morning or around sunset when it’s quieter, the light is soft & the deer are more relaxed . . . . . #nara #naradeer #japan #japantravel #traveljapan #wheninjapan

DOHA, QATAR 🇶🇦✨

Without the flashy excess of the UAE & Saudi, Doha offers a more authentic slice of the Arabian Gulf, where culture & tradition meet striking modern architecture, world-class art, and a glittering skyline. 

We loved our time in Doha and would highly recommend as a quick stopover next time you’re flying through the Middle East!

WHAT TO SEE
⭐️ Souq Waqif: a buzzing market with spices, textiles & gold, perfect for getting lost + taking photos
⭐️ Museum of Islamic Art: one of the world’s most stunning Islamic art collections
⭐️ Dhow Harbour: traditional wooden boats bobbing in the water with Doha’s skyline behind (great for photography!)
⭐️ Mina District: neighbourhood with colourful pastel buildings & street art, best explored in golden light of late afternoon
⭐️ Fish Market: the most beautiful stained-glass ceiling I’ve ever seen, worth a quick walk through while exploring Mina!
⭐️ Qanat Quartier: a rainbow-hued “Little Venice” with canals, bridges & plenty of great restaurants 
⭐️ Katara Cultural Village: a great place to discover local culture 

HOW MANY DAYS?
we spent 4 days in Doha, but you can see most of the city’s highlights in 2-3 days 

GETTING AROUND
Uber is the best way to get across the city to visit some of the farther places of interest

⭐️ Qanat Quartier: a rainbow-hued “Little Venice” with canals, bridges & plenty of great restaurants 
⭐️ Katara Cultural Village: a great place to discover local culture 

HOW MANY DAYS?
we spent 4 days in Doha, but you can see most of the city’s highlights in 2-3 days 

GETTING AROUND
Uber is the best way to get across the city to visit some of the farther places of interest

DOHA, QATAR 🇶🇦✨

Without the flashy excess of the UAE & Saudi, Doha offers a more authentic slice of the Arabian Gulf, where culture & tradition meet striking modern architecture, world-class art, and a glittering skyline. 

We loved our time in Doha and would highly recommend as a quick stopover next time you’re flying through the Middle East!

WHAT TO SEE
⭐️ Souq Waqif: a buzzing market with spices, textiles & gold, perfect for getting lost + taking photos
⭐️ Museum of Islamic Art: one of the world’s most stunning Islamic art collections
⭐️ Dhow Harbour: traditional wooden boats bobbing in the water with Doha’s skyline behind (great for photography!)
⭐️ Mina District: neighbourhood with colourful pastel buildings & street art, best explored in golden light of late afternoon
⭐️ Fish Market: the most beautiful stained-glass ceiling I’ve ever seen, worth a quick walk through while exploring Mina!
