Our final night at camp before our vacation!! Y’all were so excited! People often think we are constantly on vacation because we travel full-time. They think we are just out there living a care free and easy life. This is not true. Think about it this way. We’re on our 12th year of full-time...

Great question. We carry a few known to fail parts that are small and light weight. We take advantage of Jeep dealerships whenever we can. We've seen them in various places in Latin America. Most recently in memory was one in Porto Alegre Brazil! With that said we also pay close attention and...

We just finished South America and we're taking 4 months in the USA currently. (About half way through) in January we plan to start our journey in Africa next!

It must have been fairly new. All of the exhibits were great and in good working order. Very well organized, informative and clean. Really made us appreciate the trip to Moreno Glacier that much more. So glad you got to do the kayak! That must have been incredible. Glad we could take you back to...

It is still surreal to us that we drove to Patagonia in our Jeep Gladiator as a family. On our way back up the South American continent, we drove to a glacier and saw one of the most amazing natural spectacles on earth, the calving of a glacier. AND we caught it on camera! This is a moment we'll...

One of our big surprises in Peru was Chavin de Huantar. So glad we did this "side trip" as we were blown away by the archeological site. We captured it in this video Not sure if you watched that one. But if you haven't been to the ruins there, I HIGHLY recommend them. They were outstanding! I...

Thanks for celebrating with us Yetti! So fair warning. Peru was hard for us. I was dealing with the loss of my mother at the time. I'm not sure if you'll see that in our videos, but it was very real for us. Brittany wanted to do the mountain route and I wanted to get south. So though the...

Thank you for celebrating with us. This was such a huge milestone for us.. an encouragement that we can actually do what we set out to. Africa is next and it feels like even a greater challenge. But this milestone gives us the confirmation that we're either crazy.. or simply crazy enough to go...

We made it to the bottom of the world! Our first major milestone on our global overland journey and we have some good laughs and some challenges! Here for the questions as always! One thing I have learned in this process is chase your dreams. ~ Eric

You guys we did it! Our family straight up drove to the bottom of the world. It is still surreal to us. Normally I don't post about our journey as separate individual posts, but this is the FIRST major milestone in our attempt to drive around the entire world. It feels so huge to us that I...

We marveled at our two wheeled counterparts throughout the trip. Y'all are a different breed. Much respect!

So sorry I didn't respond faster! Right after I posted, we flew to Seattle from Mexico to meet our first granddaughter! Still in Seattle as of this writing but flying back to Mexico in a couple days. So the short answer is, I'm very happy with the Gladiator as a platform for what we've done so...

We drove 5 hours out of our way to try and get on a ferry that had been sold out for months. If we get on, we get an amazing cruise the fjords of Chilean Patagonia, if we don't, we have a 2000+ mile detour on land. This is the story of what happened. Let me know if you have any questions! ~...

Wow! That's awesome! Our guide told us that when the weather is the worst the trips are the best because of the personalization they can give. I bet your trip was amazing! ~ Eric

Conflict, Caves, and Uncertainty. This was one of the MOST CHALLENGING sections of our drive around the world so far, and also one of the most beautiful. We don't sugarcoat the journey and we don't hold anything back. This is what real long-term overlanding looks like for us. Would love to...
