How to Boondock Responsibly in Baja California, Mexico
If you’ve been following our journey for any time at all, you know that we prefer to camp off-grid — and we aren’t the only ones!

Why You Need to Visit Bridgeport, California
There are some places that just take your breath away. For us, that special place has always been Bridgeport, California. For the past five years, we've been coming here to unplug, recharge in nature, and soak in that fresh mountain air.

Why You’ll Want to Camp at Todos Santos Hostel
As excited as we were to arrive in Todos Santos, we were surprised by how few places there are to camp in the area. We consulted with our iOverlander app, and reviews were pretty mixed too.

One particular RV park near downtown had terrible reviews -- it was reportedly infested with fleas and had dirty bathrooms. ¡No gracias!

Before heading to Baja California Sur, we decided to stay a few days in San Diego. While camping in this sunny city offers pretty limited options, we had a fantastic stay at the San Diego Metro KOA in Chula Vista, Calif.
It’s Our Six-Month Nomadiversary!
It's hard to believe that six months ago today, we were tearfully waving goodbye to my parents, who were standing in front of our old home -- which was completely empty, having sold 99% of all of our things in the days prior. Our Sprinter van, recently converted into a livable space by Steven, was packed to the brim with what we had left: about two weeks worth of clothes, travel-sized toiletries, a backpack of toys and books for each kiddo, and our dog Ruby.
