Over the last 10 episodes we’ve provided an almost weekly glimpse into our life on the road, the adventures unfolding before us and some of the regular questions we are asked. The last handful of episodes have been recorded from our home in South Portland, ME and this week, we’ve decided to replay our first episode which in our opinion really captures the whole purpose of what we were going through in the lead up to the departure.So, here we are now two years later, moving into our final month off the road, preparing our house again to rent for who knows how long to support us on the road again. So as we come to a close on this micro chapter, we thought it would be a great opportunity to share our initial episode again for all of our new listeners. We are going to take a wee hiatus from the podcast for another six weeks and we will be back before the end of 2020 after we reunite with our van and commence the journey again in earnest.Thank you again for your ongoing support and look forward to sharing new shows later this year.ABOUT THE PODCASTRewilding Parenthood is a podcast for families leading bold and courageous lifestyles.

This week we are heading to the exact opposite end of North America - not quite Alaska, but pretty darn close. Vancouver Island has been a place I’ve wanted to visit for years. After my first trip to Whistler, I dreamed of living in British Columbia with access to incredible mountains, plenty of snow and Vancouver Island just a jump across the channel.Last August, we set aside a month to explore this magical island and instead of just doing it by van, we got support from some sponsors to document a bike/van family expedition. In this episode we are going to cover our journey and some of our favorite spots along the way.

I refer to the Dry Tortugas as Americas most exotic National Park as it is 68 miles SW off of Key West - literally a pile of 7 islands and a massive historic brick fort in the middle of the turquoise Carribean waters and a halfway point to Cuba.To be honest I had never even heard of the Dry Tortugas, so when we began researching what we could do for a week on the Florida Keys, it popped on my radar and we knew we had to go. However the high speed catamaran booking agent laughed at my request telling me that I bookings were available for 2020 (It was January 2019….)Anyway, I wouldn’t give up when I saw what was possible - a 2 hour high speed catamaran, access to just 8 National Park Campsites, incredible snorkeling, an enormous fortress, sunken ships with gold and treasure and most importantly - an escape from the continental United States to a tropical paradise.In this week’s episode we will talk about the planning process, making it happen in the face of repeated no’s and what we found in this tropical paradise.

So the last three part series was so fun, we thought we’d dive into another micro series about some our favorite and most exotic destinations we’ve traveled to over the last two years. Literally two years ago, just about a month after we purchased the van, we took a two week test trip up to Nova Scotia and that is what this episode is going to be all about. White sand beaches, logging road adventures, epic surf break set ups and great people are just a few of the highlights.There were so many reasons to go and we are so thankful that we did because it informed our design decisions in the van and provided a clear buffer between what life was like before and after the trip. We’ll also cover a few spots that we think shouldn’t be missed and why van life in the Eastern Canadian Provinces in the summer is the place to be.Thanks for tuning into the Rewinding Parenthood Podcast.

So the final episode of this series covers our process navigating the legalities of owning an historic Jack Rabbit recreational cabin the Morongo Valley Basin. As a brief overview of what Jack Rabbit Cabins are and their history I will reference the Jack Rabbit Homestead Audio Project:BEYOND THE PROLIFERATION of big box chains, car dealerships, fast food joints, and the nameless sprawl located along California State Highway 62 the desert opens up. Out there, where signs of familiar habitation seem to fade from view, a variance appears in the landscape in the form of small, dusty cabins—mostly abandoned and scattered across the landscape. The majority of the existing shacks, historically found throughout the larger region known as the Morongo Basin, lie east of Twentynine Palms in outlying Wonder Valley. The curious presence of these structures indicates that you are entering one of the remaining communities of “jackrabbit homesteads” left in the American West. The mostly derelict structures located among the occasional inhabited ones are the remaining physical evidence of former occupants who were some of the last to receive land from Uncle Sam for a nominal fee through the Small Tract Act of 1938.While we were aware of the history, we didn’t understand how the county was going to attempt to “upgrade” the housing stock in the valley, specifically targeting Jack Rabbit Cabins with challenging rules and regulations. However, during the process of our build the law changed again and instead of making it more difficult it became easier to transition from a cabin to a Single Family Home and we are in the process of doing so while protecting the historic nature of the cabin.The @afueravidacasita is available for rent for long and short term throughout the year and we expect to keep this magical place as part of our lifestyle for years to come. The desert provided us with so much to reflect and grow while learning from the pace of life seen in the desert seasons.Book the Afuera Vida Casita Airbnb here.ABOUT THE PODCASTRewilding Parenthood is a podcast for families leading bold and courageous lifestyles.

Welcome to episode two of the three part series - Buying an Abandoned Cabin in Joshua Tree, CA.This Episode covers the first couple months on the property - from the moment we took the keys, to the moment we realized we may have made a terrible investment. There are way too many stories to pack into a 30 minute show, but this covers the highlights.We really wanted to deliver a sense of what the days were like and how we approached the project as a family living off the grid. Over the first few months the only amenity was running water through a hose, which was a godsend, but everything else was through the van - solar power, compost toilet and a chilly solar shower.However, with each day the project progressed on all fronts - landscaping, exterior, interior, shower house, outhouse, solar power, etc… Stay tuned for the final episode of this series and check out @AfueraVidaCasita to learn more of the project.ABOUT THE PODCASTRewilding Parenthood is a podcast for families leading bold and courageous lifestyles.

And having a proactive approach/ roll with it attitude will ensure positive outcomes. In this particular breakdown we were grounded for five days because of an issue with our starter. This was the second starter repair in about a month, which initially felt frustrating, however it was a blessing in disguise because it meant I was capable of handling the repair because I had already been mentored through the first one prior to leaving Maine.

Then we’ll pivot and cover our theme of the week - how we outfitted our family for river expeditions.A major part of our journey has been to learn which sports we can do together as a family of four with a two and five year old. We biked last year including some bikepacking trips, but found our bikes were just getting abused by dirt and sun on the back of the van - basically a liability. We left our surfboards behind this summer knowing we would unlikely see the Pacific for months and opted to take a gamble and find some form of river craft on our journey - opening up our options to explore some of the West’s great waterways in the form of multi-day expeditions. While we have experience on the water and overnight expedition experience as a family of four, river expeditions have been an entirely new sport for us.

In short - their space is perfect. It’s thoughtful and has everything they need to operate sufficiently off grid. In the rearview they left a steady paycheck, a home attached to a foundation and a community that was doubtful about their decisions.On the road they travel in two vehicles - the house-bus and the run around. They will park for a few weeks at a time while exploring the area then move on when the time comes. While it may sound like a vacation, it’s anything but. Adam and Elizabeth are on it around the clock working multiple gigs including running their own business on top of homeschooling their two girls.

Sailing Across the Pacific with A Family Afloat

Imagine living aboard a 40 foot sailboat discovering the Pacific for five years. That is exactly what Josie, Christian and their three children have done since 2015. I spoke to Josie while they were docked in New Zealand having already crossed the Pacific together. The thought of it alone gave me cause for pause, yet her description of what it is like to see, or rather smell land, as she puts it, after three weeks at sea peaked my curiosity. In this episode, Josie discusses her partner’s background growing up on boats and sailing the Pacific circle twice by his young teenage years. When Josie met Christian, she sensed his steadfast commitment to a life at sea and dove in. They melded their family, both having daughters of their own and decided to bring a third into the world - Taj who was living afloat at 29 hours old. Josie also dives into the mechanics of how this trip was made possible and the sacrifices required. For example for the handful of months leading up to their departure, they left their slip in Sausalito, opting to save the money and moor out in the Bay. This seems like a frugal decision, however Josie would then have to commute 13 miles to and from work three days a week often in the dark which involved a kayak paddle and 13 cycle over the Golden Gate Bridge. Meanwhile - Christian would be homeschooling the three children along with preparing their vessel for an around the world adventure - talk about super hero parents!

On the way back from a photo shoot nearly ten years ago Peter and Kathy Holcombe realized that they were nearly coming home to mow the grass, pick up the mail, attend to a few other errands and then head out again to the next spot for their photo work. It dawned on them that if they downsized everything and moved into a life on the road, they would always have their home with them negating the need to return anywhere.So they did it. They deliberated and planned for well over a year and when the decision was made, they mapped out their itinerary and work along the way. They sold off their brick and mortar photo studio and dove in head first for the best decision of their life. Their largest hesitation was how they would educate their daughter Abby and they initially had her in a digital classroom where she would check in each day for a set number of hours. Yet after the first year, this felt more like handcuffs and they were unable to take on the opportunities that would allow Abby to thrive. So they tested out a number of other alternative forms of homeschooling until they found the right fit.Meanwhile, the Holcombes as a whole passionately pursue the adventures that make them feel most alive. They are all paddlers and Abby has literally grown up with a boat since she could fit the smallest commercially made kayak. On this trip and at the age of 12, she paddled the entire Grand Canyon in her own kayak, a feat perhaps nobody this young has ever done. While watching abby progress, Kathy also pursued her own outdoor challenges vowing to do 1,000 miles of self propelled adventure in 2019, learning so much about herself taking on these challenges mostly alone.The Holcombes are a true inspiration and are pioneers in their field. They are amazing photographers with a vivid portfolio, are accomplished world travelers and Abby is part of the Junior Olympic White Water paddling team. They are currently back in the US after spending the last six months touring Europe and they will soon be shipping their rig to South America to take on the next leg of their around the world tour.Follow Famagogo Below:www.instagram.com/Peterholcombewww.instagram.com/adventurous.misswww.instagram.com/holcombe.kathywww.famagogo.comABOUT THE PODCASTRewilding Parenthood is a podcast featuring families leading bold and courageous lifestyles.

Flo and Nina Orley shared a dream that they put on pause with the birth of their first child - to sail around the world. At the time, the Austrian couple had already sailed halfway learning the ropes as they went intoxicated by the riches the sea offered. But with their family growing, they headed back to Innsbruck, Austria - Flo to continue competing on the Freeride World Tour and developing his career as a professional extreme snowboarder while Nina worked and took care of the children.With their kids (Momo and Keano) approaching an age that they would be comfortable at sea again, the Orley’s began planning their second attempt. From the Alps they began searching for a boat to house their family for potentially years at sea traveling the world. They would make many sacrifices to afford what was coming next and to also leave the comforts and security of their home.However when we recorded this podcast, Flo and Nina were hitting their stride having just done a multiway passage to Venezuela aboard a 40 foot catamaran. In this episode they discuss why they left, how their kids grew on the adventure and why making sacrifices are worth it to fulfill a lifelong dream. From their photos alone, you can see that their time at sea was truly intoxicating.After two years at sea sailing primarily through the Caribbean the Orley’s reluctantly returned to Austria after an unexpected illness in their family. They sold their catamaran, Snowflake and are now home, living the life they once did, a little bit older, wiser, blonder and more inspired in the world in which we live!You can follow the next leg of their journey at:www.instagram.com/sailawayfamilywww.sailawayfamily.comABOUT THE PODCASTRewilding Parenthood is a podcast featuring families leading bold and courageous lifestyles.

Not the case with Jan & Renata as we bumped into them deep in the South Western desert of the United States and from the moment Jan introduced himself, I knew he was a friend for life.As we spent more time together, their story unfolded in chapters from an adventurous love story. Jan, originally German fell in love with Renata, originally Croatian in Southern Spain. Within months they were married touring Europe in their retro Mercedes van. Discovering they were pregnant, they returned to Hamburg to build their city lives - Jan finishing medical school and Renata just commencing art school - a five year full time commitment. Over the next five years they had twin boys and a daughter and the pace of their life increased to a frenetic pace. However travel remained a staple in their lives.Eventually they decided to take a year off and travel all of Africa as a family but getting there nearly broke them. Fortunately it didn’t and the trip to Africa set the tone of their family lifestyle forthwith.

As Colin was wrapping up his years competing on the Freeride World Tour, they moved to the US and their first child was on its way unexpectedly. As they quickly prepared for their new child, they felt their lives changing and over the course of four years, two houses, full time jobs, mortgages, airbnb's daycares, life insurance, etc... they lost themselves and each other as many other young parents do.Their current #overlanding journey from Maine to Argentina, Sofi's home, is a reclamation of the adventurous lives they seek to live and the experiences they want for their family. While they admit, vanlife has been more challenging than expected, they feel more connected now than in their traditional lives living the american dream and they hope to inspire others to pursue their passions.ABOUT THE PODCASTRewilding Parenthood is a podcast featuring families leading bold and courageous lifestyles.
