Things I’d Like To Do On Our Trip Across the US

September 28, 2020 By Amanda 2 Comments

US cross country trip

Our big cross country trip in October will be my longest road trip yet. The furthest I have driven from Arizona is 17 hours.

But this trip isn’t a 10 day undertaking. Wynston and I will be on the road for 5 weeks!

While I research the areas we will be visiting, I’ve been concocting a list of things I want to do during our trip across the US.

How I’m Preparing for a Five Week Road Trip

September 21, 2020 By Amanda 3 Comments

Preparing for a five week road tripWynston and I are going to be living in our minivan camper conversion as we explore the United States over a period of five weeks. This sort of solo undertaking takes research, preparation and a lot of open-mindedness.

Travel is not new to me, and neither is driving a long distance by myself. But because I will be living on the road for five weeks with my dog, it’s important that I prepare properly.

In this post I share how I’m preparing for a five week road trip with Wynston around the USA. I’m working on my van, mind, body and soul so I am fully ready to be living out of our vehicle.

We’re Driving Across the US in October!

September 8, 2020 By Amanda 7 Comments

Cross Country Road TripWe can all agree that 2020 has been bizarre, to say the least. Not only have we been faced with an international pandemic, but I also lost my stepdad to cancer in March, then Wynston almost died in April.

Though I’ve endured intense trauma this year, I’ve brought a positive attitude with me along the way. I learned through experiencing so much death and sadness that life truly is short, and I don’t want to waste it.

Since his recovery, Wynston and I have had several adventures in our minivan camper conversion, and now we’re going bigger than ever! In October we head out on a cross country trip throughout the United States.

How to Prepare for a Long Road Trip With Your Dog

March 27, 2019 By Amanda 7 Comments

how to prepare for a long road trip with your dogGetting ready for an hour road trip is much different than preparing for a long road trip with your dog. When I say “long” road trip, I mean 6+ hours. In this post I share the ways I ready myself and Wynston for such adventures, and many of these tips can be used for any road trip, despite length. I go through a process to make sure that Wynston and I are prepared for extensive road trips, especially when I know we’ll be in the car for almost 12 hours. I hope this post is helpful for you. Safe and happy travels!

Our Upcoming Trip to Lake Havasu + 4Knines Car Seat Cover Giveaway!

February 7, 2019 By Amanda 13 Comments

4Knines Car Seat Cover Giveaway
This post is sponsored by 4Knines, but we only share products with our readers that we love!

I’ve lived in Arizona for 20 years, but as I’ve become more well-traveled in the last couple of years I’ve realized that I’ve seen so little of our beautiful state. Sure, I’ve been to all of the major areas of Arizona and I’ve experienced tourist sites like the Grand Canyon and Tombstone, but there is so much I have yet to explore. Recently my stepdad took a trip to Lake Havasu, AZ and that was my inspiration for our upcoming trip. Wynston and I are heading there on February 20th, and 4Knines is our sponsor! To celebrate, we’re giving away a 4Knines car seat cover of the winner’s choice.
