Discomfort is a big part of life in general—particularly of life on the road. This edition of ROVA looks at getting out of your comfort zone. Miguel Machado writes about the pain of leaving the past and the stress of an uncertain future; Heide Brandes meets women who are embracing the male-dominated sport of fishing; Carla Francis braves the difficulties of shoulder season travel; and Matt Halpin descends into Utah’s canyons to push the limits of comfort.

Also in ROVA Adventure Fourteen, the tale of a vegan lifestyle on the road, an overview of van conversions, a delightful group of animal friends who travel with their owners, and much, much more.
