We are still in El Salvador, learning a new sport 🏄🏽♀️ 🏄🏻♂️ (not easy for our age) and enjoying the beaches, but tomorrow we will be doing something a little different.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
For the first time since we started this trip, we'll be trying to cross two borders in one day 🤯 a few of our friends already did it and they told us it took them over 11 hours. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
For us it'll be an adventure since we'll be crossing with not one but three dogs 😂 🐶
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If you'd like to join us, we'll be sharing our entire day on insta stories ⬆️

(prayers welcomed) ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #dontskipelsalvador#vanlife#surfcity

What’s it like waking up and working in your bus everyday? 🚌
.
It’s like Christmas morning 🥳
.
We have been living in Sunny for almost a month now. Many people are asking us what our plan is, and until recently we didn’t have one! We have been staying in one campsite at the Sunny Coast where we and my family are based to wait out the end of the year and catch up on some work. We didn’t see the point in leaving before Christmas as we wanted to spend the time with our family and friends 🥰
.
But the very exciting news is that our first destination will be Tasmania! 🌲⛰ We will be heading down through NSW and VIC at the end of January to catch our booker ferry to Tassie on the 22nd Feb. We can’t wait to finally start adventuring in this big beautiful bus of ours, and we’re stoked to bring you all along with us via our page 🥰
.
So many people ask us what we do for work: I (Samantha) am the founder of @my_pupper - I have my Mum making all of our accessories and I’m currently working on a new side project 🤫 and Tom is running his own Business where he is helping other Entrepreneurs and Companies to reach their monthly revenue goals by helping them to improve certain aspects of their products/services. Basically, he helps people grow their Businesses so they can live the life they want.
.
All in all - were pretty bloody happy with what we do and so thankful to wake up every day and work by each other’s side 🥰
.
Do what you love and you’ll never work a day in your life 💕

Feeling a little burned out with RV life lately- I think it’s a phase that will pass once we make our way to Phoenix- but sometimes you just want room to spread out, a tub to relax in, and the security of a job with benefits, sick days, and paid vacation. Because I’m a contract worker, I miss out on benefits like affordable healthcare, sick days, and paid time off. It’s a bummer because I feel like I’ve really needed a mental health day lately. The good news is, I am planning on taking an entire week off after we finish up in Phoenix! I think this life is awesome and I’ve loved so much about being on the road, but sometimes reality hits and you just have to push through the lows ❤️❤️❤️ #rvlife#rvliving#rv#fulltimerv#fulltimerving#homeonwheels#homeiswhereyouparkit#simplelife#livingsimply#travel#sanfrancisco#bigsur#womenwhohike#travelnurselife#travelnurse#travellife
Been daydreaming about traveling to visit family or see new places? The Aria class A diesel by Thor Motor Coach is a favorite choice. Once at your destination, everyone can watch the 43" TV while keeping warm by the electric fireplace with remote control. ⠀
⠀
There are full kitchen amenities, plus a split bathroom allowing more than one person to get ready at a time. Don't forget about your own oasis which includes an inclining king size bed for the perfect night's rest, storage for everyone's clothing, and a washer and dryer to keep your clothes clean the whole trip.⠀
⠀
With any motorhome by @thormotorcoach you will be impressed with the 100 W solar charging system. It helps maintain the coach batteries, while the Bluetooth App allows for quick control of the charger right from your cell phone or tablet. There is a Onan RV QD 8000 diesel generator as well. ⠀
⠀
You will find a lateral arm awning which allows you more room underneath without having to duck under the arms to get to the entry. ⠀
⠀
Inside you'll relax and sleep on the Denver Mattress king-size bed with tilt-a-view inclining bed mechanism while reading a book or watching the 32" LED TV. You can even charge your electronics with the USB ports in the nightstands. ⠀

So we are learning the ins and outs of the new rig! One of those requirements would be the maintenance our our built in Cummins Onan Evap 5500 generator.

Changing the oil/air filter is super simple, so I'll show you guys some tricks. Do it yourself and save some money! +
Let me know what you think, full video is up on YouTube lots of valuable info!
Und schon ist er "fertig"!💛
Leider haben wir keine Bilder mehr auf denen man den Bau der restlichen Möbel etc. sieht.
Hinter dem Fahrersitz haben wir noch ein kleinen Schrank mit Schubladen eingebaut, Vorhänge mit Magneten genäht und natürlich darf die Lichterkette nicht fehlen.
Das ganze wurde von uns dann natürlich auf einem nahen Waldparkplaz direkt mal ausprobiert. Die schönste Nacht und das coolste Frühstück seit langem!😊
Natürlich ist so ein Van nie fertig und es gab seit dem noch einiges was umgebaut wurde und was auch jetzt noch um- oder eingebaut werden muss. Dazu werden natürlich auch noch Bilder kommen.
After 3 weeks in Hot Springs National Park, it's time to go. The hosts and rangers have been pretty accommodating while we waited for our engine to get here from Wisconsin. We have found a local shop in Benton, AR, that is available to work on the bus. In the meantime, we are heading to our dear friends in Tucson in the Westy and JF will come pick up the bus when it’ll be ready. So glad we had the @northwoods_trails as our backyard during that time. It made for a great playground!
And now, let's operation red bus rescue begin!

It’s spring...uh...winter cleaning day!!! 🤣🙌🏻
Before we lived in the Airstream, I thought keeping it clean was going to be EASY! It’s only 33 feet of space, how dirty can it get, right?!??
WRONG 🙅🏼♀️
I think because there’s less space, each crumb or smudge sticks out like a sore thumb. So today we are scrubbing this place downnnnn - I’m talking on hands and knees, people 💪🏼
Double tap if having a clean home just makes you GIDDY!!

Huge renovation news: Exterior lights ✔️
.
Tackling our exterior lights has undoubtedly been the project we were least excited to undertake. However, these clearance lights were the last step in this process, which means time for a snip of wire, removal of rust on the light holder, spray of rust treatment, then spray of paint!
In all the exterior lights took many days to complete and at felt so slow and defeating that — in truth — I honestly didn’t think we would ever get them all to work... but... we did! Andy continuously amazes me with his vehicle knowledge, his passion, and his focus. True, I have no idea what I’m doing but I’m learning — a ton — from him and right now after we’ve gotten this project finished, I feel we cannot be defeated!
...Oh well there is one thing: I should mention after we got the lights working, our Cortez now won’t start. Again. So there’s that investigation... 🤣
.

If you haven't followed me on my stories then you don't know that I now live and work in Engelberg, Switzerland this winter. Today was the 2nd ski day of the season and it was so good! I really love the mountains and I feel at peace here.
You can expect a lot more winter pictures from here the coming months.
If you're in the vicinity stop by and say hi!
¡Viva México! Our baby finally arrived safely in the port of Veracruz 🎉 We’re now waiting for customs to be cleared and can’t wait to explore this beautiful country 🇲🇽 🌮
Just because you have a great contingency plan doesn’t mean you can’t also be ready to party... as long as you have an El Sicario Covert Concealed Carry Shirt. Ready for whatever like it’s the summer of 1775, swag on 💯 cuz Miami ain’t gonna vice itself 🕺🏻
We’re currently adventuring down to the beaches of Texas for some warm weather and sand in our toes ☀️ thinking we may hang around there for a couple weeks before we head to Austin for Nathan’s 30th birthday celebration with our friends from back home 🎉 have you ever been to Austin, Texas?! If so, what are the things we HAVE to check out?! 🤠
Tag 25
Leider haben wir heute kein aktuelles Bild, weil wir den Bus die letzten 2 Tage kaum verlassen konnten. Der Regen wird zum Glück langsam weniger. Heute morgen haben wir unseren gefluteten Stellplatz verlassen und sind ein paar Kilometer weiter auf einen kostenlosen Parkplatz gefahren. Doch heute morgen mussten wir erstmal richtig Ordnung machen. Es ist Wahnsinn was sich alles ansammelt, wenn 2 Personen für 24 Stunden auf 4 qm leben. Wir mussten also erstmal aufwaschen, Müll wegbringen, alles wieder trocknen und alles wieder an seinem Platz verstauen. Die Heizung lief heute auf Hochtouren. Durch den Regen und die hohe Luftfeuchtigkeit waren unsere Schuhe, Handtücher und Klamotten komplett nass. Zum Glück ist mittlerweile alles getrocknet und der Bus wieder in einem passablen Zustand. Morgen soll der Regen endlich vorbei sein. Wir freuen uns, denn wir brauchen endlich mal wieder ein bisschen frische Luft und Bewegung - und ein bisschen Sonne wäre natürlich auch nicht schlecht.
🇺🇸Who said winter vanlife is not fun!? 😂❄️ We happened to arrive at Grand Canyon in a snowstorm day. We already reserved a campsite and we had enough food for a week, so in the end we decided to stay, basically stuck there for 2 nights.
We shoveled the snow to make a smooth driveway with cutting board 😂until a park ranger rent us a proper shovel. That was some hard glute workout for 2 days Lol
Grand canyon itself was really beautiful but experiencing this massive amount of snow in vanlife was certainly unforgettable!

.
. 🇯🇵あの有名なグランドキャニオンについたー!!!と喜びも束の間、吹雪警報……❄️😱 キャンプ場予約したのにどうする!?と散々悩んだあげく、食料も一週間分はあるし、ディーゼル暖房もあるし、2、3日動けなくても大丈夫やろ!ということで結局ステイ。
.
結果やっぱりものすごい雪の量により除雪車もおっつかず、2日間キャンプ場に軟禁状態。
.
とりあえずバンの周りだけはできるだけ雪かきしよう!とシャベルもないまままな板で雪かき笑笑 2日間の超重労働……😅 パークレンジャーが見かねてちゃんとしたシャベルを貸してくれました!
.
3日目はキレイに晴れて、除雪もバッチリされ、無事脱出成功👏雪に覆われたグランドキャニオンを拝めました🏔️
.
でも雪の中で過ごした2日間の方がインパクトあったんだよなあ…笑😅

ⓉⒽⒺ ⒷⒾⒼ ⓇⒺⓋⒺⒶⓁ Tah dah! This was the crafty project JoeBacon did for his mom.
She brought the sleigh when she moved from Colorado and somehow it got stashed somewhere, and the weather got to it. 😫
When we found it it was in pretty g bf as shape and filled with mud.
So we did a lil rescue job to salvage it and now it sits in front of the fireplace holding some firewood. .
I think it turned out pretty cute! And I think we only spent like $5 on the paint (which I’m sure we had before we downsized our whole lives!) lol 😲
.
Listen, all I did was primer paint and a teensy bit of the stencil cutting. This was all JoeBacon. 😊 #gottabragonhim
