Truck Life Journal began when I left more than a decade of corporate life behind and became a truck driver. What started as a record of a career change has grown into a personal journal about life on the road, personal growth, and building a life on my own terms.

This is not just a blog about trucks. It is a journal of finding my own way.

I didn’t grow up around trucks, engines, or transport. After years spent in offices, I wanted work that felt more real: with movement, responsibility, visible results, and freedom.

Since then, I have driven international long-haul routes across Europe, lived in a truck for weeks at a time, changed companies, made mistakes, and learned what trucking is really like. Here, I share personal stories, honest reflections, practical experiences, and lessons from the road.

Becoming a truck driver changed more than my career. It helped me become more independent, trust my own decisions, and start building a life that feels like mine.
