Description

Welcome to Venture2Roam! We (Will and Kate) venture to explore the American West, overlanding with our family and friends. This channel follows our overland adventures, our approach to primitive camping, Jeep Wrangler upgrades (and fixes), reviews of the gear we use, and of the amazing rigs and equipment we meet along the way. We give our honest opinion on equipment and gear, share any hard learned lessons and tips we've picked up along the way, and highlight the overlanding community we love so much.
