Caravanning in Baja with new and new-ish friends. Life is goooood.

We sold everything so we can wander the world as international nomads, trading our old jobs as high school teachers for our new role as students of the world. Andy makes videos on YouTube and Sherry writes a weekly blog on Substack. Let's connect!
Caravanning in Baja with new and new-ish friends. Life is goooood.
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all our fellow travelers! May you meet amazing people in amazing places along the journey. π
Walter got to visit Sherry's alma mater, Biola University! Any fellow Biola alumni out there? #biolaalumni #biolauniversity #adventuretruck #nomadic
Walter the Adventure Truck loves meeting BIG friends.

Crossed the Golden Gate Bridge on a gorgeous #bluesky day. What a treat!
SCHRODINGER'S TRUCK: In our nomadic life in Walter, we are simultaneously home and not home. β¨ π β¨
Cheesy tourist attractions amuse us. But usually, they don't make Walter look like a Tonka Truck. π

Building our own overland vehicle has had its challenges, but LOOK. This is the life we dreamed of. #homeiswhereyouparkit #oregoncoast #overlandlife #nomadiclife #adventurerig #nomad
Gorgeous!
That temple is amazing! We were there this past January. π

In case you need some encouragement to get out there and explore the world. π
(Spotted Sunday near the finish line of the Seattle Marathon while I was supporting my brother-in-law.)
We haven't done all of 24, but Goblin Valley in the snow a few years back was magical. And Hwy 12 is awesome.
We love to wander scenic roads. Hwy 29 in the far SE corner of Washington is so cool, winding down into a deep canyon then back out again. The Moki Dugway near Monument Valley makes crazy steep cutbacks down the side of a mesa. What else? Tell me about the coolest stretches of road you've driven.
Very cool!
Yes! I am right there with you, friend. π
Last year about this time, we wandered around that old abandoned water park off the freeway between Las Vegas and Los Angeles. Crazy cool. Have you seen it? What other #abandonedplaces have you explored?

Celebrating with Zambia πΏπ² tonight as the Orlando Pride have won the NWSL Championship with Zambian superstar Barbra Banda scoring the winning goal β½ and being named MVP. Wishing we were back there again to celebrate with our friends and family. Have you ever been to Zambia? πΏπ²
And in the category of Best Restroom Signs Discovered While Traveling, the nominees are:
(I'll start)
Yay for you! I know how exciting that is, haha!
WEIRD PLACES WE'VE STUMBLED UPON IN OUR NOMADIC WANDERINGS:
The Blue Banana coffee kiosk in Lostine, Oregon, USA, near Wallowa Lake (which, incidentally, looks like a blue banana on the map). Coolest coffee shop ever. Free library, and you can sip your beverage inside that VW's back seat.
We are visiting family in Washington State USA right now, helping them with some home remodel projects. After Christmas, we will head to Baja for a bit. A friend of mine is also in NZ right now and sending me spectacular photos. I hope you are having a fantastic experience!
Hi, fellow nomads! I look forward to learning more about your story!
Who else here writes on #Substack? I would like to curate a list of Substack bloggers here on Bluesky. Comment with the name of your Substack and a brief description of what you write about. Let's connect!
TRUE! π
Ooh, it's so tiny! What a funny photo it would make to put this car next to our travel rig. π
Spectacular! You sound like our kind of people, for sure. π
Go, Granny, Go!
