Washington is the last place I called home before moving into my SUV full-time, and it was on these mountain trails and forest roads that I fell in love with living out of my vehicle and backpacking every other night until the rain or snow forced me south to warmer weather. Lately, I’ve been based around Mount Baker. Camping, hiking, and getting lost on mountain trails. If you’ve ever wondered what the Washington backcountry is like, here’s a glimpse into that world. Thanks for being here ♡

As of May 2021, I’ve been living on the road full-time for three years as an outdoor adventure & travel photographer. Here’s a tour of my current tiny home on wheels after 14 months in an SUV and two years in a custom built Ram Promaster. My ultimate goal here is to inspire you to step outside your comfort zone by sharing my own personal highs and lows along this (sometimes) wild journey. Thanks for being here!! Maybe one day I'll see you out on that open road.

How much can you save by living in a vehicle instead of paying rent? In this video, I breakdown my expenses of living in my van vs living in my SUV vs living in my old apartment. Hopefully this financial overview will give you an idea of what costs to expect, and how much you might save by living on the road.

May 2018 is when I first moved out of my apartment and into my SUV…wild that it’s already been three years on the road! In this video I share one of my secrets to long-term #vanlife​, along with some life updates!

Last month, I attempted something new. A five day water fast in the desert. No food, no coffee. Just water.

Why did I do this? Well, there are a lot of health benefits associated with fasting. But even more appealing to me- was the sheer mental challenge of going five days without eating.

Here's an update on where the road has taken me lately. Arizona, California and now...Colorado. Also, some major upgrades for my tiny home on wheels that I'm stoked to share - new 245 K02 tires, a spare tire mount, sumo springs, and an Espar heater so I can keep warm in the winter :)

Hey all, I’ve been camped at the same spot in the desert for 10 days now - finally moving on and further south in this video. Typical day of packing up camp, doing van chores and hitting the road. I also talk about how to get packages, mail and an address while traveling full-time.

Life lately, van dwelling in the desert. Morning routine, working remotely, chasing light and the moments in between. Also - some tips on how to get internet & wifi while traveling and camping off-grid!

What has it really been like living on the road during this pandemic? State shutdowns, covid-19 closures, no showers, fewer places to camp…it’s been weird. Here’s a little update on the past few weeks and what I’ll be doing moving forward this winter. Thanks for being here!

Two and a half years ago, I moved out of my apartment in the city and into my SUV. Last summer, I bought a van and hired a team to build my dream tiny home on wheels.

This kind of lifestyle is not for everyone - but if you’re considering van life, living in a vehicle, traveling full-time or even simply pursuing a more minimalistic lifestyle…here are ten tips to help you get started.
