Jess and Austin met while traveling in March of 2021. Both native New Yorkers, they connected over similar upbringings and a desire to see new ground. They took a leap of faith moving in to a converted Ford Econoline to travel 2,500 miles from San Diego back to New York.

They navigated the US along with their relationship in the journey, learning the joys and hardships of life on the road. Austin taught Jess the beauty of the ocean through surfing, while Jess introduced Austin to the mountains and deserts through the nation’s parks.

What was once a trip across the country quickly became a lifestyle. They took their van down south and completed their trio by adopting their pup. Obie, endearingly named after where they met in Ocean Beach, became a welcome addition to their travels.

October of 2022 brought on a new project; converting a Ford Transit into their new home. With no experience, they spent 6 months learning design, electrical, plumbing, and carpentry through online sources and the help of their dear friend, Daniel.

Since meeting, Jess and Austin have traveled to the 48 contiguous states and visited over 35 national park. Our aim is to curate our adventure and provide guidance for those seeking a mobile lifestyle.
