We have reunited in sunny California! After a week in Lake Tahoe we have traveled back to the Nevada City area for the annual cleanup along the river. We decided that we should camp down by the river since the cleanup was the next morning near the Bridgeport Crossing. We pulled up a steep, dirt […]

Read more "85 Inspiring Vanlife Nomads"Hey Friends! This year we were given the gift of serving the Baan Dada orphanage in Thailand.

Read more "Gypsy Giver Giveaway"Before arriving in Hawaii I would have never guessed it to be the wettest place on Earth. Logan telling me so and reading the sign at the lookout was just not enough clarification. Much to my dismay we got caught in daily downpours on what would start as beautiful sunny days on Kauai.

Read more "The Wettest Place on Earth"Day five at the sanctuary and we sadly woke up lacking motivation. We are tired. We are not accustomed to the manual labor and harsh heat. You can imagine how we are lacking some inspiration when our morning routine usually includes shoveling massive amounts of smelly poo . Today’s session was especially festive when I got […]

We spent the morning getting our stuff together and squeezed in one last meal. Everyone joined together […]
Read more "Leaving Baan Dada"Today went down a little differently than the other days here at Baan Dada. We didn’t have much interaction with any of the kids but we did a lot to help them inadvertently. We also got the chance to learn a lot more about the sponsorship program they have instated here. We left for our […]
Read more "All for the Kids"Not only are we here to volunteer and share our love with the children but we are passionate about learning from them and embracing their lifestyle, too. That means we are sleeping on thin mats under mosquito nets and taking cold bucket showers. For the next week we are vegans who do not drink alcohol and […]
Read more "The Good Kind"Thank you or kòp kun mâak, as the Thai say. We give thanks to those who sent prayers and well wishes for our journey overseas. We made it here safely after a very long day of travel from San Francisco. We arrived at our hotel at 4 a.m. and we weren’t tired since it was only 1p.m. in California. You […]
