Preparing for Trip: Day 3


Year Trip around the US. Preparing for Trip: Day 3.

 Should we travel in a Sprinter van, pop up trailer attached to our SUV or just drive our car and bring a tent? 



We've three options. 1) To buy a Sprinter van that has a queen size bed, mini kitchen, bathroom and shower 2) Buy a pop up trailer or 3) Just carry a tent in our car. What do you suggest? 

Here's the pro's and cons:

 Sprinter van pro: Ability to just relax at the end of a day without having to worry about putting up a tent. Con: 15 mile per gallon makes buying gas and traveling more expensive. 

Pop up trailer pro: Pretty easy to pop up at the end of the day and lots of "room" (sleeps 6). Cons: Pulling around a 2000 lb trailer and pull on engine.

 Drive a car and bring a tent pro: Super easy on gas. Con: Having to set up a tent a lot is a bit irritating (lol). Plus can't put up a tent in the city if we had to. 

So what do you think? If you want to also help us achieve our dream, feel free to visit our website! Or want some help achieving your dream? Go here:

This week I wanted to share with you our trip to Santa Monica beach. 

I called our trip "Sand n Waves" because the sand was so warm 

on my bare feet and the waves were so calming and inspirational. 

You can see the whole story here.
