"VAN LIFE" is an original series of episodes that chronicles the adventures of a group of young people who decide to travel across Greece in a van, pursuing their favorite outdoor sports.
Exciting destinations, action, twists, and tested relationships among friends that grow stronger are all documented with a humorous approach, creating a series of youthful, light-hearted, and comedic episodes, set against the backdrop of the active lifestyle of van lifers.
In each episode of "VAN LIFE," mountain biking champion Giannis Korfiatis, along with his team, which is essentially a film crew, invites different characters who are enthusiasts of extreme sports to travel with them in a specially converted vehicle that serves as a small home.
Together, they try out a new sport each time, discover local communities and their people, explore the natural environment of the place where they park their "home", and enjoy both adventure and relaxation in one of the most beautiful countries in the world, which becomes the backyard of their "home" – Greece.

Episode 9
The Vanlife crew sets off for a tasting experience when, on the road, they come across Giorgos Lentzas, Danis Karamichailidis, and Alexandros Papageorgiou hitchhiking.
Plans suddenly change, and together they all head toward the wider Kalabaka region for a weekend packed with cycling action. As with every Vanlife journey, there are plenty of mishaps and surprises along the way.
The group explores the area to find the perfect camping spot, meets friends from the cycling community, and even takes in the local football derby between Krya Vrysi and Lygaria. After setting up camp at the spot chosen by Manos, they grow closer through music, cooking vegetable risotto (Danis’s recipe), and watching Vanlife episodes together.
The next morning kicks off with high spirits: the gang hops back into the van, meets up with their friend Vasilis Tsiantikos, a cycling route guide, along with more cycling companions, and sets out to explore trails in the wider area — joined by athletes from abroad.
The episode wraps up with food in the van and a shared reflection on all the beautiful moments of the two-day adventure.
