That’s great to hear too! Ok, I’m starting to feel better about things, thanks all. :)

That’s really good to hear!

Hi all, We’re finding some trouble with our bus, it’s at the mechanic now and we’re waiting on news but they’re backed up and it might be a little bit. I don’t have high hopes and the way I often cope with things is by thinking about contingency plans for the what ifs because it makes me feel...

I’m not sure what that is but I’m guessing Amy will; I’ll pass it on to her. :) It’s a 1997 international Chevy. (I’m having a late night moment and not sure I’m saying that right all of a sudden.) It used to be a shuttle bus for Princess Cruise Lines in its first life. :) We made a video about...

Hi all, We've got a 26 ft shuttle bus with rear drive and duallys (not sure if I'm spelling/saying that right) on the back.  We'd like to get traction boards (think that's the right term?) or something like that to keep with us in case we get stuck, but are not sure if we need a particular kind...

I’m not totally sure I’m putting this in the right place, but this is my best guess. I wanted to share with you all my spouse’s new YouTube channel, Traveling CODA, all about our nomad journey as we go along, and the places we go and people we meet. It’s filmed in American Sign Language, but...

Hmm, that is good to know about the Coleman. I’ve run into a new roadblock that I guess I hadn’t paid attention to in my casual browsing before. We live in Alaska and until the Canadian borders fully open back up will likely still be traveling in state once we get on the road. I’ve mostly been...

Thanks so much everyone! Sounds like our best bet will be the chest type compressor fridges. I will get to work figuring out what we can afford.

Hi all. We found our rig (woo!), a 26 foot shuttle bus. It’s the cutest and we love it. One of the many things to figure out is a fridge/freezer situation. To power things we’re aiming for plenty of solar with a generator for backup.  I’ve been looking at residential mini fridges, and also at...

Thanks, all! I’ll show this to my spouse and talk it over with her. :) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hi all, We *think* we've found our rig, an older class b+/small c, but it's a six hour drive away so we're still working out the logistics of getting there to look it over and potentially drive it home.  In the meantime, I'm thinking through some of the things that are priorities to us.  One of...

We’d ideally like to get working on it in the next couple of months; we’re living in my Mom’s house right now as we get it ready to sell, but it will be sold at some point so we want our new home to be ready to go on the road with when that happens, and we’d also like to get some practice trips...

Thanks all! I’m taking notes! I should probably have mentioned that our original plan to use Moms trailer was made partially out of sentimental reasons, as she passed away a year and a half ago and had always wanted to take a big road trip. Now that we’ve decided her trailer isn’t going to...

Hi all. :) Our hopeful plan of using my my mom’s vintage travel trailer to get on the road is looking a little dashed due to repair costs, so we’re now looking at buying a van or possibly a very small bus to make our first home on the road. (We’ve thought about RVs, too, but Amy, my spouse, is...
