Coordinotes

Coordinotes

We are Sarah & Cédric, a creative couple from Belgium.
We started Coordinotes in 2021 intending to help people convert their campervans. It quickly became clear that we would create travel guides to inspire you with the most beautiful and unique destinations.

Now, several years later, we have many journeys behind us and hope that you have frequently used our travel guides.

We’re doing everything we can to write even more!

Sarah

Hi everyone, my name is Sarah and I’m this overactive happy person who tries to make the most out of everything. I’m in charge of writing all travel guides on Coordinotes and handling our social posts. When it comes to photography, I’m both in front of and behind the camera and I create most of our videos. Before we quit our jobs to travel the world, I used to work as a physiotherapist.

In my spare time, I love to go climbing. By saying I’m passionate about traveling I mean I want to see all the beautiful places in the whole wide world before I die. And I feel like the happiest person on earth that I found my soulmate to take on this challenge with me.

Favorite Food: Mac & Cheese

Cédric

I’m Cédric, and I’m mainly responsible for the technical and graphic aspects of Coordinotes. I ensure that the website is up and running, and I also work as a photographer, handling all the visuals.

Besides Coordinotes and traveling, I enjoy dining out (and having a drink) with friends, and I’m curious about everything related to technology. I often dismantle things to understand how they work.

Pablo

Hello! I’m Pablo. Thanks to my staff who drive me everywhere, I get to enjoy fresh blades of grass from various countries with the most beautiful views. I’ve already managed to visit 17 different countries! In fact, in 2022, a Belgian magazine named me the most adventurous cat in Belgium.

Favorite Food: Vitakraft Liquid Snacks – Favorite Drink: Fresh water from the tap – Favorite Animal: Mouse

Why Coordinotes

While we were converting our van, we got a lot of questions about the conversion. That’s why we wanted to create a place where we could collect and share all the information and tips about our build. But with our passion for travel and photography, we felt the urge to do even more: We wanted to share our adventures and inspire people with our travel experiences. That’s why we started taking notes about all coordinates we’ve been to: our coordi-notes.

Why we converted a van?

On the very first day we met, we already found out that we both had the dream to convert a van. As soon as the corona pandemic broke out and we started talking about our future travel plans, we felt this was the sign to just go for it and fulfill this common dream.
After a lot of research, brainstorming and fantasizing, we decided to take action and to make things real. In October 2020, we bought our Sprinter and made our plans for the conversion. And so the story begun.
