Our Story

We’ve been traveling full time since 2013.


We left Alaska with seven of our ten kids in ​a 15 passenger van pulling a 31' travel trailer ​to explore our country.


Five years later in 2018 we bought a ​hurricane damaged sailboat to start ​exploring the world from the water.


It took us four years but we left the dock ​and are now living and exploring full time ​on o​ur sailboat, a 1981 Morgan 462.

Everyday

We strive to share our everday adventures with you. If you have a question, please don’t hesitate to reach out and ask us. What you see is what you get around here. Real life from real people.

Traveling

We are currently traveling on a 46 foot sailboat but that hasn’t always been so. We’ve traveled by plane, RV, and car to explore the amazing world God gifted us with..

Wayfinding

Why do we share? To be an example of what’s possible. We were inspired by the stories of others. Seeing their stories helped us have the courage to try and we are excited to do the same for you.

Essentials

What does it take? What do we use? How do we? We get a lot of these kind of questions and are committed to sharing all of the essential details to help you on your journey.

Wanderlust...

We have traveled and had ​adventures as a family in ​one way or another since ​Todd and I were married 35 ​years ago. We are always ​excited to see what is ​around the next corner and ​we’ve been sharing on ​YouTube for the past 6 years,
