Our former full-time rolling home: a 2007 36′ Hitchhiker fifth wheel and 2016 Ram Dually truck — in Utah2008-2020 (we lived in a 27′ travel trailer for our first year in 2007)Our former floating home “Groovy,” a 2008 Hunter 44DS, in Mexico’s Sea of Cortez2010-2013 (we returned to the 5th wheel annually during hurricane season)We describe the rest of the rigs we’ve owned and traveled in on our page our Rigs for full-time and part-time travel.  You can also find our thoughts about the pros and cons of truck campers — the good, the bad and the UGLY! as well as our description of what it’s like to live in a toy hauler. Both were great experiences that gave us an appreciation of different kinds of rolling homes.Our travels have taken us throughout North America, from Canada to Mexico, RVing scenic back roads and byways and sailing Mexico’s Pacific coast.

We criss-crossed the US in that RV for a year and then upgraded to a 36′ fifth wheel.  (You can see our progression of trucks and trailers at this link: Our Rigs for Full-timing (also in the menu)).Mabry Mill on the Blue Ridge Parkway in VirginiaHorseshoe Bend in ArizonaAt the beginning of 2010, after nearly 3 years of full-timing in our RV, we bought a sailboat and took our travels to the sea.  For the better part of the next 4 years, we cruised our 44′ sailboat Groovy up and down the entire 2,000 mile Pacific coast of Mexico, spending the summertime hurricane seasons traveling in our trailer in the US while Groovy waited for us in Mexico.We sailed from the US border to the Guatemala border, and visited almost every Mexican port in between, including the Sea of Cortez.  We also headed inland for some of our best adventures, taking public buses on long journeys to see Mexico’s magical colonial cities and visit the mind-blowing Mayan ruins way down south in the jungle.Conception Bay in Mexico’s Sea of CortezLas Hadas in Manzanillo, MexicoCatching dinner.Sunset in Zihuatanejo, MexicoIn the summer of 2013, we did the infamous Baja Bash, sailing Groovy uphill against the wind and waves from Puerto Vallarta back to San Diego.  For the entire 1,200 mile journey we were tucked into the sweet spot between two hurricanes, riding the coattails of one while being chased by the other!In early 2014 we said goodbye to our beautiful sailboat Groovy for the last time, and returned to RV living full-time.  We loved Groovy and cruising Mexico but we were excited to return to living exclusively in our RV.In 2020 we put down roots once again and returned to living a conventional life in a stick-built home.  In early 2021, after 7 months of being happy homebodies, we yearned for the thrill of life on the road.  We bought a truck camper for shorter duration adventures, however it wasn’t the right rig for us.In 2022 we sold the camper and purchased a barely used Genesis Supreme 28CRT toy hauler.  This rig made it easy for us to bring our Polaris RZR on our travels, gave the us the fun of an open air patio, and still gave us a comfortable home on the road.  During our summer months of travel in 2023 our wonderful 2016 Dodge Ram diesel truck died, costing us $6,600 in repairs to get back up and running again (it needed a new exhaust manifold and turbo).  The following May it began throwing the same error codes again, so we traded it in for a 2021 Toyota Tundra gas truck and in January 2025 we bought a 2024 Arctic Wolf 17CB travel trailer.You can learn the rest of our backstory before we became full-time travelers on our About Us page (in the menu too).  For a thrilling overview of our first ten years of full-time travel — chock full of gorgeous photos — check out these two posts:In our nomadic lifestyle we have each discovered and nurtured a deep love of photography.  In addition, I (Emily…the narrator of this site) have fulfilled my lifelong dream of writing as well.  We have both grown tremendously as photographers — photography has become a shared passion for us — and this website is a fun testament to our improved techniques and maturing artistry from 2007 to the present!For tips on how we learned photography and the gear we use, visit our photography page (also found in the menu).Over the years we have published our photos and travel articles extensively in various print and online publications.  You can see our portfolio of published work here.Sedona ArizonaLas Vegas, NevadaZion National Park, UtahBryce Canyon, UtahPUBLISHED WORKWe have published over 240 feature articles in the major RVing and Sailing magazines.  52 of our photos have appeared on magazine covers in the RV and sailing industries, and 12 of our photos have appeared in commercial wall calendars.  We’ve also created a video guide series for cruising Mexico.Waterton Lakes National Park, CanadaMoraine Lake in Banff National Park, CanadaIn 2017 we began authoring a column on the back page of Trailer Life Magazine showcasing our photos of special places we’ve been.  New York’s Watkins Glen State Park impressed me so much I featured it in my May 2017 Trailer Life Magazine column!A wild lovebird in a saguaro cactus in ArizonaIn our nomadic lifestyle we have lived almost exclusively off the grid on solar power.  In our RV living we like to “boondock,” that is, camp independently on America’s gorgeous public lands, away from campgrounds and RV parks.Camping in UtahIn our sailing life we “anchored out” in bays and coves rather than staying in marinas.Anchoring out on Mexico’s CostalegreIn our years of RVing, we’ve spent a total of  4,618 nights off-grid on solar and battery power:  3,713 nights boondocking in our RV and 905 nights anchoring out on our sailboat.  This unique nomadic lifestyle has taught us a lot about how to live simply and frugally, without “hookups” to power or water.Morning mist in the Sonoran Desert of ArizonaBryce Canyon National Park, UtahDeer in eastern WyomingA mountain bluebird catches breakfast in the Black Hills of South DakotaNAVIGATING THIS WEBSITEWith over 1,000 articles on this website, there is a ton of info for you about RVing full-time as well as cruising tips for sailors.
