The unknown of the wild felt like home, which always called out to me. The call got louder and louder the older my daughter got, and finally I just couldn’t ignore it anymore. I had to break free from the boring daily routine of going to work and going to bed. It was a slow death. I just didn’t know what to do, where to go, and how I could make it happen, until I was on YouTube looking up something for work, then suddenly, there it was.
“Solo Female Van Tour”, it said. A lone woman, living in her van, traveling about where ever she wanted… and I knew right away that was it for me. The next day, I went to the leasing office, I broke my lease and moved out!
My sister offered to help with my daughter (many many times over the years), and I finally gave in and let her do it. I needed to figure out what this calling meant for me, and why I struggled with settling down. So I took a leap, and jumped right into VanLife!
