Help me get back on the road 🚐💛

Hey friends,

If you’re here, thank you. That already means the world.

Recently, my van (aka my home on wheels) hit a string of unexpected and costly repairs—including a surprise transmission failure just after a major repair. While that part of the repair is thankfully under warranty, the other issues weren’t—and I’ve also had to cover over a week of hotel costs since I can’t stay in my van while it’s on the lift.

This has taken a big bite out of my living funds—and as anyone living this lifestyle knows, there's not a lot of wiggle room when you're living a life on the road.

Why I’m Asking for Help

I chose van life to reclaim my freedom, live with intention, and stay aligned with what matters most. That doesn’t mean it’s always easy. Sometimes it’s incredibly hard. But I’m still deeply committed to this path—and right now, I could use a hand getting through this rough patch.

If you feel moved to contribute, your support will go toward:

  • Repair costs not covered under warranty

  • A week of hotel expense while my van is undrivable

  • Rebuilding my emergency cushion so I can keep rolling forward with a little more peace of mind

Every little bit helps—and whether you give or just send good energy my way, I’m grateful you're part of this journey with me.

Thank You for Being Here

This lifestyle isn’t always Instagram-pretty, but it’s real. It’s mine. And I’m better for it—even in the messy moments.

With gratitude,
