I thought it would be interesting to share a little about our spendings from the road trip. It was quite eye-opening for me. The numbers are all real and in all honesty, my hope for this post is that you will be encouraged to hit the road! We set our hearts on doing a multi-month…
Soaking in Natural Hot Springs [Part I]
Both Min and I loves hot springs. I am talking about the natural ones, not the hot-mineral-water-in-a-pool kind, but the ones you find flowing constantly in nature. When we make travel plans on the road, we almost ALWAYS keep an eye on any hot springs on our route. We would intentionally plan for a soak…
Climbing at Matthes Crest, Yosemite National Park
It’s been a week since we got back to the SF Bay Area. I got to say it has been sad and weird at the same time. The weather has also been gloomy and rainy which is typical for winter in Northern California, and that does not help with my moodiness. Min went back to…

Daily life on the road
It’s been two months on the road since we left and we are slowly getting used to this van life and have a daily routine going. I’d say weather determines the most on what we do on a daily basis. When we left in August, it was summer time. We started in Northern California where…
Where do we sleep?
Current Location: Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada The first thing we did after decided to drive cross country was buying a vehicle that would allow us to make this trip possible. At that time, we owned a 2003 Honda Civic Hybrid and a 2016 Honda Fit. Why do we need another car? We want to be…
