She’s been operational for some time now, but it’d be criminal not to share the birthing experience of my sweet baby, Bubba Bessie. I’ve been unemployed for a bit over half a year now, gotten to travel and experience so many beautiful and wonderful places where just a few years ago would never have imagined myself. In the midst of such an amazing time in my life there have been some curve balls and albeit I feel the most free I’ve ever been these past few months have been incredibly emotionally stressful. To cope and keep the dream alive I committed to building out a van in plans of taking my life out on the road. After about a month of searching I jumped on a wicked deal for a 2006 Ford E150 with only 60k miles, and the rest is history:

As things settle down at home and I continue to gather myself I’m prepping to head to the Pacific Northwest for the summer and begin the Bubba Bessie adventures. These past few months have been quite an eye opener for me, and only solidifies my intentions of keeping this dream alive. Life is fragile, and time flies by quick. Get fucking psyched and hit the god damn road!
