New and Blue
It’s been three and a half months since we got our new van. The experience of selling the old one and designing and acquiring the new one was long and at times quite arduous, but all in all we’re so glad that we took the risk and made the big…
Hellos and Goodbyes
Ah, the new year. We had been enjoying the last few weeks of 2023 in and around San Diego and it felt like time to get back out into nature. What better place to head back to than one of our favorite dispersed camping spots: Chiriaco Summit just south of…
Vanlife: Season 3
Turns out you can pack a lot of travel into 3 months. Last time we went out west was in the fall of 2021, which was only a short few months after we both left our full-time teaching jobs in Ohio. After traveling for a bit we had soon realized…
Trading Vanlife for Boatlife
Anyone who knows us knows that we love celebrating. On August 3rd of this year, we celebrated our 10th wedding anniversary. And today, October 30th, is the 16th anniversary of when we started dating. This seems like a good time to share how we celebrated the big 10 this year.…
Mountains, Caves, Lakes, and Friends
The trek north from Florida began, and we decided to stay a night up on Signal Mountain, Tennessee, where I (Mo) spent a big chunk of my childhood. We drove the route from the elementary school up the mountain through the old neighborhood and along a route I had mapped…

Let The Good Tides Roll
Canada seems like forever ago (September-October of last year), but I’ve only shared about half of it. Erin and I had explored Ontario and Quebec, so next we continued heading east toward New Brunswick. We came to find out that New Brunswick has a plethora of the World’s Largest things!…
Onward, Upward, and International
With summer coming to a close, it was time to leave the midwest and head northeast for the fall. The goal here was to eventually meet up with our Swiss friends, Marielle & Blanche, who were traveling in their van across Canada. Since going our separate ways last fall, the…
Plans Are Things That Change
We often get the question, “Where are you headed to next?” And while we generally have an idea of the answer, our plans are constantly changing. Where we decide to go is based on lots of different factors, some of which include the weather, a specific event we want to…
The Joys of [Van]ownership
#Vanlife for us came after being 2x homeowners. We owned each house for about 5 years, and during those times we dealt with very expensive and ongoing water issues. In the first house it was the basement. In the second, the ceiling. I think there is a huge misconception that…
