Full-time RV Travel

Our path to full-time RV travel was far from straightforward. We’ve tried part-time and full-time travel with various rigs since 2012. It’s now been four years since we last lived in a house and we can’t imagine going back. Here we share a candid account of what it’s like to travel full-time.

Finding patience in presence: how our truck build has been a practice in chilling out

The last four years of life on the road have looked quite similar for us.  Colorado in the summer, Arizona and Baja in the winter, and anywhere in between as we migrated south and back north.  The problem with repetition is that Mark and I get bored easily and end up craving all that there is to be discovered in the unknown.  Something that can’t be achieved when you’re constantly residing within...

10 years on the road with Peter & Kathy Holcombe

I can’t recall exactly when it was that Mark and I first came across Peter Holcombe’s photography, though I can tell you that I remember it making an impression on us.  It was likely sometime in 2006 or 2007, Peter was a well-established wedding photographer based in Boulder, Colorado and Mark and I were up and coming wedding photographers, working tirelessly to establish ourselves in the...

Welcome to Notes From The Road, a monthly recap of where we’ve been and what we’ve been up over the last 30 days. And just like that, it’s November (insert wide-eyed emoji here).  It’s been a busy year for us but October took the cake, disappearing on us like a thief in the night.  Between photographing weddings and portrait sessions around Colorado, spending time with...

I’m on the Journey with Jake podcast this week

I

Last month I was interviewed by Jake for the Journey with Jake podcast and I’m so excited to share that the episode is now live. Jake asked so many thoughtful questions about life on the road as well as what inspired Mark and I to pursue an unconventional way of life. There are some fun stories in this episode that I have yet to ever share on the blog. To read more about what the episode...

Overlanding vs. RV-ing vs. Vanlife: what’s the difference

Welcome to post 15 of 26 in the A-Z guide to full-time RV Living. OverlandingRVingVanlife These are three terms that all encompass vehicle-based travel.  But what’s the difference?  And why does it matter?  This is a topic I’d love to dive into because if you’re considering full-time life on the road, having a better understanding of what these three things mean may help guide you...

With the aspen trees turning magnificent shades of orange and yellow accompanied by the season’s first dusting of snow on the mountain tops, there’s no place I’d rather be this time...

Enter Hayley & Jake. These two Canadians, with spirits full of wanderlust, popped up in my YouTube feed last year. I was captivated immediately when I learned that they spent nearly a...
