Who are we?
We’re Victoria & Craig, a full-time travel couple currently living the RV lifestyle! In 2021, we realized life was too short to wait to chase our dreams, so we purchased a used fifth wheel camper and completely renovated it. After selling our house in Florida, we set off on our journey as full-time RVers. Full time RV living has taken us across the United States, Baja Mexico, and Canada, where we’ve fallen in love with boondocking in stunning locations and living an epic adventure travel lifestyle. In 2023, we upgraded to a brand new Brinkley RV Model Z 3100.

Join us as we explore new destinations and embark on new adventures. From hiking, rock climbing, and paddle boarding to surfing, off-road exploring, and cooking around a campfire, we live our travel couple lifestyle to the fullest!

    In the northeast: we always travel with a leaf blower: much easier to clear your slides and roof of leaves or debris. Also ; in the northeast we use generators: we hardly ever have hookups and do just fine
  • @DJ-oc1do
    As others have suggested, get a battery operated leaf blower for the roof. Makes easy work of that task. We have one brand of battery tools for the camper so that we only have to take one or two batteries.

    I have never had an RV and never will have a RV but i love watching your channel. Extremely entertaining and excellent put together videos... Plus you both are adorable! ... Love and best wishes from Vancouver Island.
  • @JB-mn2wb
    You guys are one of my favorite couples! Really love watching you!!!!
  • @dawnblack5374
    Welcome to the East! Check your pups regularly (and yourselves) for ticks. Our special gift in these parts 🫤
  • @lindabrown2211
    It's always so fun to watch you two. Yep that road looked like a good climb for the rig... Yikes . We'll have fun be safe and as always wishing you safe travels. Oh and hugs to the fur babies 🤗
  • @KoriandJack
    You guys are too fun!..lol.. I enjoy hearing you both go back and forth! Beautiful fall foliage out there!
  • @pFoz
    Glad you enjoyed Letchworth. And that trip down i-99/US 15 to Williamsport is absolutely beautiful.

    We dry camp as much as we can. Most MA state parks are dry camping. In fact we are going dry camping in Sandwich MA this week. Love camping under the trees in the summer, it's a lot cooler. We have portable solar panels that we put in the sun while keeping cooler in the shade.
  • Letchworth is beautiful! Thanks for sharing the fall colors! We went in the summer and stayed at the Glen Iris Inn. Very cool place. We’ve also rented that cool stone cottage there. We had a hard time camping the east coast, but Vermont has beautiful state parks! 💚
  • @grayfox9911
    The doggies looked happy in the woods. Y'all enjoy!
  • @peterwiacek457
    Nice to see you guys in NE. I have been following you guys for a while since my wife and I are thinking of RV for 4 months a year and we love the Brinkley! If you still in NE for the near future I would love to invite you guys to our ski house in Catskills. Beautiful area this time of the year, lots of hiking and we only 50 min drive from Gunks! Every climber should visit gunks!
  • @kimhastings2148
    Omgosh!!! Love that you caught a train, looked so beautiful. Keep up the amazing videos. And thank you for showing all these awesome places you go. Helps me know what's out there and safe when I go on my adventure. Stay safe have fun 🥰
  • @sdwk74
    Really enjoy your videos. I ordered a Brinkley 3610 yesterday and I particularly like that I can get a preview of tips and tricks before my unit arrives. We live in our GD Solitude about 4-5 months out of the year, but with our Brinkley I am going to rig it for boon docking and much of that you two have inspired! :) Great channel and I love your positive attitudes and genuineness. All the best!
  • @danfrigault5031
    Ironically we were camping across from you at Letchworth State Park. We are from Niagara Falls Ontario. I was curious about you trailer so when we got home I looked up your brand of trailer and VOILA you guys popped up. Didn’t see you much other then walking the dogs. I told my wife with the starlink that you were probably working remotely. As I see you do Best of luck on your Chanel and yes we subscribed
  • @squamishfish
    You need to do the east coast of Canada , Nova Scotia , Prince Edward Island , Cape Breton And Newfoundland
  • @jordancook1668
    Letchworth Falls is gorgeous. If you're in that area, you also have to go to Watkins Glen.
  • Hope you are having a great time on the eastcoast, WV is one of your favorite places to visit when we are out that direction. We are looking forward to heading there next fall too. Tell Maverick I said hello even though I know he hates me... 8)
  • I’m from Ontario, about 30 minutes from the Elora gorge. I’ve camped Letchworth my whole life. Even got to bring my kids there. It’s an awesome family campground. It’s been a bit since I’ve gone. My kids are all grown up. Definitely want to go back.
