Sometimes it’s hard to see the scale of this rig without something to compare it to for size. So please enjoy this series we call ‘clamber aboard’ at least living in Bruce gives us all a great leg workout 🦵 . . . #toughestsprinterontheplanet #4x4van #sprintervanlife #usaroadtrip #aussiesabroad #fulltimevanlife #vangirls #thisisvanlife #mytourig #fulltimevanlife #werollwithit #odgreen https://www.instagram.com/p/CBTNM9BpUen/?igshid=1v287ynq642u1

A few things I’ve learned in 2017, 1. I’d much rather live a wild and unpredictable life than be a slave to a job that makes me feel unfulfilled. At the beginning of 2017, I left my job for an unstable flow of income from pet sitting, dog walking, photography and other jobs that were never consistent or guaranteed. Within a few months, Kyle followed suit as well. We’ve never been happier or more free. 2. Overalls are essential. 3. I’m proud and open about my nomadic lifestyle. I have had one too many people give me shit for living in a van. At times, I felt the need to be secretive about my decision to live my life the way that best suits me. One time in particular, I was having a conversation with someone and she called me poor and homeless. I almost allowed myself to feel ashamed, but I realized that not everyone will be accepting and kind towards my lifestyle. Houseless in the traditional sense or not, everyone deserves compassion and I will honor this every day. 4. Sunshine and the beach feed my soul. This became such a priority in our lives that we left the Pacific Northwest, the place we love most, to travel down the California coast and run from the seasonal blues. So far, it’s been unimaginably amazing and I’d spend every winter living this life. 5. My life needs laughter. Like excessive amounts of it. • • • #thirdeyecity #keepitsimple #vanlifediaries #projectvanlife #vanlife #vanlifers #homeiswhereyouparkit #vanlifestyle #minimalist #nomad #homeonwheels #comeswithaview #vandweller #vanvibes #vanlifeculture #vanlifesociety #nomadstays #vangirls #wildernesslifestyle #vanclan #thisweekoninstagram #sheexplores #vanlifedistrict #happynewyear (at Fort Bragg, California)

We’re making progress! Despite temperatures in the teens here in Minnesota, most of the carpet out, we removed the divider to the front of the van, and insulation is cleared. Nothing like gutting a van in the middle of an apartment complex lot, and I’m sure they aren’t as excited about the plywood and carpet in the dumpsters as we are, but the van smells and looks a lot better with the rugs gone!
