Welcome to Our Blog!
We're so happy you're here! We're Gracen & Austin and we live on the road full-time, traveling across the U.S. in our travel trailer/RV.
We created a blog with the intention of sharing our journey; whether it be road-life tips we figure out along the way or beautiful places we explore.

Internet while living on the road—and no, it isn’t Starlink (shocker!!)
Someone recently asked us on YouTube what we use for internet while living on the road and that they’re thinking about traveling full-time—so, we wanted to answer this in a blog format because this is honestly probably the most commonly concerning thing about living on the road. I know it was for me!

We are officially on the road again after 3 long months stationary in Texas! So, I wanted to write a blog about our updates—things we changed in our RV, our plans for this year, and kind of just talk about what it’s like being back on the road.
