INSTA

American diner. Handicap spots all taken. Waitress had a smokers voice and called me “hun”. I used four creams on two cups of coffee and put the rest in my purse for later. Left what I figured would be a generous tip considering the bill was only $8. I ate pancakes, bacon, and scrambled eggs. The syrup wasn’t maple. The coffee was included in the meal.

Knowledge will vanish, humans will die, nothing will matter, no one will try, Rain will fall, moon will rise, everyone cries

Two years was like a blur. That little hamster is now speaking in full sentences and blowing my mind every day with how clever and coordinated he is. Happy second birthday to my bestest pal! 🎈
Can’t wait to see your next big adventures.

Different terrain but it’s all the same. Everything was once nothing at all.

There are places I'll remember
All my life, though some have changed
Some forever, not for better
Some have gone and some remain
All these places have their moments
With lovers and friends I still can recall
Some are dead and some are living
In my life, I've loved them all

Always missing my pal!

At the risk of having too many portraits of Mr. Vannington in my recent posts...I can’t let too much more time go by without commemorating my first year of full time van life.
.
I’ve been to 22 states plus Ontario in the last year (mostly with @machineself). Seen beauty in a lot of unexpected places, usually trying to avoid major highways and ‘merican strip mall cities (holy cow there are a shit ton of big box stores and mega retailers out there).
.
But at the same time, I’m not a rock climber or surfer, etc. so I don’t really have that sort of community to join or specific destinations to plan for. About half the time traveling has just been Anders and me picking an adventure based on what sounds cool at the time. The other half has been me alone trying to look incognito and pretending to be on the phone when I leave the Starbucks bathroom without buying anything...ok so there are some useful corporations out there....
.
The journey of actually building the van had a lot of ups and downs over the course of two years but we eventually figured it out with the help of a very generous family member. I didn’t take the time to document much about the build last winter because I was so anxious to just get it done and officially get our lives on the road.
.
We’ve had personal tragedy, electrical failures, followed roads that ended up being impassible...I’ve even cried at the terror of driving through single-lane windy cliff roads with no barrier.
.
We had our minds BLOWN not expecting the absurdity of Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge, TN. I lost my shit laughing at the sight of Anders trying to give away avocados at the gas station before crossing the Canadian border. We’ve parked at some amazing BLM/National Forest land and some shady ass Wal-Marts and some good friends’ driveways. We’ve both sweated and frozen our faces off.
.
Needless to say we have so many more places to go and I haven’t taken nearly enough pictures of the places we’ve been. Buuuut it’s not all about instagramibility; this is just life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness or whatever, eh? ✌️ #35mmfilm #vanlifediaries #vanniversary

Reflection begets transformation.

Once upon a time I knew a horrible man. He had a trophy wife with fake tits (no judgment though, whatever floats your boat...). She was in her early twenties while her husband was middle aged, and she grew up in the same suburb of Houston as I lived for the first three years of my life.
They were both arrogant and patronizing. I was not happy to know them and I’m sure they wouldn’t remember my name today. Their lives were surrounded by drama and they fucked people over left and right whenever it served them to.

This has nothing to do with anything, I was just feeling sort of bitchy.
