1300+ subscribers join me on my camper-van-camino through the British Isles. Each Friday I post out a digest recording my discoveries in my time-travelling camper van.

I’m Andy Marshall and I'm an architectural photographer. I work in my time-travelling camper van and share my journey with others.


I changed my vocation to a photographer after having a breakdown. Photography changed my life.


I call my journeys my 'camper-van-camino', and I take the road less travelled.


I find and access places that people wouldn't ordinarily see, or show well known places in a different light.


One of the most rewarding responses I've had to the Genius Loci Digest is: "I love seeing the world through your eyes."


I share my adventures every week, and I'm overwhelmed at the response.
