I Sold Everything, Bought An Airstream And Travel America With My Family Indefinitely
I’ve always been the person to tell people to chase their dreams, so I decided to take my own advice. My dream is to make a living as a professional photographer while travelling America and this is how I’m making it happen!
We sold our house, cars, most of our possessions and bought a 30ft Airstream that we could all live in comfortably. It wasn’t an easy decision and we were faced with a lot of doubts, but when we told other people what we were doing, their eyes lit up and I could see we were doing the right thing.
We’ve been permanently in the Airstream for a little over 3 months now and life has been an adventure!
Life on the road is not for everyone, but I wish someone would have told me when I was 21 years old, that you could buy an Airstream and live in it while seeing America! So, here I am now, telling you it’s possible. If I’m doing it with my wife and 4 year old son, you can definitely do it as a younger single person looking for adventure in your life!

I’ve always been the person to tell people to chase their dreams, so I decided to take my own advice
My dream is to make a living as a professional landscape photographer while travelling America and this is how I’m making it happen!
We sold our house, cars, most of our possessions and bought a 30ft Airstream that we could all live in comfortably
But when we told other people what we were doing, their eyes lit up and I could see we were doing the right thing
What most people want to know, is how do I make money on the road?
Well, I’m an established professional wedding photographer in Nashville TN and I make enough to stay out on the road and live this Airstream lifestyle of ours
I hope to eventually make all my income from landscape photography, selling prints and traveling America
But it’s going to take some time to make that transition
For now, I do what I need to pay our bills and make it happen
We’ve been permanently in the Airstream for a little over 3 months now and life has been an adventure
Yes, there were some tough times in the beginning as we adjusted to this new lifestyle, but we’re getting use to it now
We spend a lot of time boondocking (camping in the middle of nowhere) and it’s one of the coolest things you can experience in an Airstream
Plus it doesn’t cost you anything
One of my favorite places so far has been Big Bend National Park in Texas
The night sky gets so dark that you can almost see every star in the sky
If you let your eyes adjust long enough, you will eventually see the milky way, that’s how dark it is
We charged our batteries every day by using our solar panels on top of the Airstream
We still had amazing internet service through our phones, so we were able to do Instagram and all that fun stuff
We hiked some amazing locations that challenged our endurance as a family hiking together
But one of the most amazing thing we did was spend time in a natural hot spring that sat on the side of the Rio Grande river
Life on the road is not for everyone
But I wish someone would have told me when I was 21 years old, that you could buy an Airstream and live in it while seeing America
So, here I am now, telling you it’s possible
If I’m doing it with my wife and 4 year old son
You can definitely do it as a younger single person looking for adventure in your life
Everyday is a new adventure
And I hope it continues for along time
