Once you develop an identity, it’s never easy to shake yourself free. This is why career pivots feel like such big risks, and new mothers struggle to find themselves amidst late nights and dirty laundry.
We’ve claimed an identity since February 21, 2014, as full-time RVers living on the road. This identity has given us access to everything from membership clubs to public speaking opportunities. It’s bonded us with strangers around campfires.

We aren’t full-time RVers anymore.
We just moved out of our 25-foot Winnebago View, as we prepare to drive around the world.
Some of you know we’ve sort of done this before. At the end of 2018, we put our first RV up for sale and moved into our Jeep Wrangler. We spent two months driving through interior Mexico. We started building a new identity as overlanders.
Even then, we knew we weren’t finished with the RV lifestyle. It only took about three months before we found our dream Winnebago and moved in. We were still full-time RVers.
This time is different. We’re taking our nest egg and investing in a new global overlanding build. We’re crossing the border back into Mexico, then Belize and beyond. We’ll be worlds away from the life we’ve known in the United States as we drive around the world for the next 10-15 years.
But the RV chapter of our lives is something we get to take with us. Even though we may not be full-time RVers anymore, the past seven years of full-time travel have given us the experience and confidence to open this new chapter.
