Welcome to post 3 of 26 in the A-Z guide to full-time RV living! This post is all about how we maintain relationships with friends and family while living on the road full-time, how we socialize and meet new people, and how we thrive as a couple that is together 24/7 in a 100 square foot living space. Part One: Community Maintaining Relationships Mark & I were living an independent...
Welcome to post 2 of 26 in the A-Z guide to full-time RV living. When people learn that Mark & I live on the road and travel full-time, the most common question we’re asked pertains to safety. “But aren’t you scared out there?” is what seems to most naturally roll off of people’s tongues. The short answer is no, not in the slightest. But since that concern could...
Welcome to the first post in a 26 part series on how to live on the road and travel full-time! Since living on the road doesn’t happen overnight, I thought I’d kick off this series with a post about dreams. Over the years Mark & I have had the good fortune of turning not just one, but a few of our dreams in to reality. And we’ve started to discover patterns in the path that we take to...
2022 was a great year full of several wonderful and memorable experiences. I feel like we really hit our stride with living on the road full-time. Our business really seemed to hit it’s stride as well after a 2 year long overhaul of its identity and mission. We kicked off the year with our first ever Baja California road trip and on December 30th were back in Mexico for a second winter...
As many of you know, RVing has grown exponentially more popular since the start of the pandemic in 2020. We previously lived on the road full-time back in 2018 and as we embarked on this second chapter of full-time RV living in 2020, I couldn’t help but wonder if it would be more difficult. Not only are there more crowds, additionally everything is getting more expensive, and dangerous...
Hello hello hello! It has been a while, I know. We last left you in May 2020 when we decided to sell our house in Idaho, as well as our plane, so that we could buy an RV, and return to full-time RV living. I’m happy to report that life on the road has been treating us extremely well since then. If you’ve been following our journey over the years, you know that we’ve had several...
It feels like a big statement to say that this was the best summer of my life…but I think it might have been. We make a living photographing destination weddings throughout the Colorado Rockies. In summers past, we would photograph 1-2 weddings every weekend for 18 weekends straight. During the week we would edit and manage the business. We never saw our friends, we very rarely went camping, and...
It was mid-April when we made our way back to our property. We hadn’t been since late October when we closed escrow and spent two quick celebratory weeks before migrating south for the winter. We were eager to get back, to get to know the area and the property itself more, and to see if this place would be everything we hoped it would be. Spoiler alert: It was. What we were hoping for was a...
We managed to get a pretty sweet campsite here at Valley of the Gods. We had an okay spot for the first two days we were here but when the guy left the site we’re at now, we jumped on it and moved the mile or so down the road to snag it. We’re perched up on a hill, at the base of Rooster Butte, with panoramic views of Valley of the Gods and Monument Valley in the distance. A lot...
It’s been about 10 months now since we sold our house and began living and traveling full-time in our RV. As many of you may already know, this isn’t our first time, it’s actually our 3rd. All the previous experience has culminated in a wealth of knowledge that is making our travels more enjoyable than they’ve ever been. Planning routes, locating campsites, knowing how often and...
