I washed my van Ardanwen on September 11th during that crazy week when the California sky looked like nuclear winter due to all the wildfire’s smoke. Despite the eerie apocalyptic sky, I really like how my van still shines bright and clean. I figured it would be dirty covered in ash within a few days, but luckily Ardanwen is still sparkling and ready for our next adventure.
On Thursday September 24th, my cat Maverick and I left on our month long road trip to Oregon and Washington. We are caravanning with a vanlife friend and taking our time exploring various towns to see which ones appeal to us the most. In the last few years, the idea of moving up north has weighed heavily on my mind, but I haven’t made up my mind whether the colder climate is ideal for me. This will also be the longest trip in a vehicle for me, so I want to test out whether I will miss being in a house or whether life on the road suits me. I have considered going full time, therefore, I need to see if my cat and I can handle it.
If you’re in Oregon or Washington please DM me so we can meet up! I want to see all my friends living in the Pacific Northwest and make new friends along the way!
