They say green is the ugliest colour (and while we are most definitely jealous of @Sophadophaa_'s idyllic summer road trip), there is nothing ugly about the rolling green hills and the glassy turquoise coastlines of Australia's east coast.

Taking advantage of our current abundance of sunny days, @Sophadophaa_, the endlessly stylish lifestyle influencer and CEO of All for Mimi, jumped in a Wander Campervan and saw the best of what New South Wales has to offer.
Having seen the footage and heard her feedback, we have distilled exactly what it takes to live your best (van) life into three shockingly simple steps!
Step One – choose your fighter!
Whether you want Coral or Cove, Heidi or Harlow, our entire rental fleet of off-grid campervans are outfitted for maximum comfort and minimal effort – the perfect holiday ratio.
If you really want to be stalker-level specific, @Sophadophaa_ opted for Hazel! Regardless of which campervan you choose, each has a queen-sized mattress, gas stove cookers, fridge/freezers, kitchenware and much more.
Step Two – learn the route!
Looking for a lazy beach day or a town to potter around? Each of these coastal havens has so much to explore. Whether it's the local pub that has caught your eye or a market by the beach – the best way to explore, once you reach your destination for the night, is to wander around each little town.
This is the route we suggest to best replicate Sophia's sun-seeking holiday. At each town there are multiple van parks for you to choose from to pull up to and recharge after a full day of exploring.
Day one – Wander Campervans, Sydney
Only a seven-minute drive from the airport, pick up your van and you will be on your way in no time.
Day two – Forster
With miles of beach to choose from (seven, to be exact), turquoise waters to enjoy during the day, and unique bars and pubs to hop between at night, Forster has a little bit of everything.
Day three and four – Byron Bay
It's famous for a reason! With an innate positive energy because locals and tourists alike are all happy to be there, a buzzing nightlife and no shortage of lovely beach spots, two days here and you will be planning your next trip to Byron Bay.
Day five – Kingscliff
Reaching the end of your route before turning around and heading back towards Sydney, Kingscliff is a popular vacation spot for people who crave a sunny holiday but wish to escape the hustle and bustle of the Gold Coast.
Day six – The Gap, Arakoon
Under the towering gums, you might spot a kangaroo or two. The Gap beach is a local secret, away from the nearby town of South West Rocks, you are almost guaranteed a private beach experience, save for a few surfers looking for the best swell.
Day seven – Wander Campervans, Sydney
This is where you say goodbye to your temporary home. It will be waiting for the next time you decide a little bit of wandering is just the holiday you need!
Step three – start your engines!
Pack your bags and hit the road. While we can't promise you won't always be green with envy over her holiday outfits, at least now you live your very best van life, @Sophadophaa_ style!
Via Instagram, @Sophadophaa_ commented on her experience with Wander Campervans saying, "The best week ever! Thank you @wander_campervans for making the whole experience so easy and fun."
