Hey there! We're Joe + Kalyn!
As online entrepreneurs, we thought, "why not work from home... on the road"? So in 2019, we bought and renovated a 2005 Jayco Designer Fifth Wheel, which took us to every state in the lower 48. But the economy hit our business especially hard after the 'vid, spurring us to pivot in new directions and try different strategies, including various RV work camping jobs!
Follow our fulltime RV Life journey as we build back our bank accounts in order to fund the biggest RV trip of our lifetime—Alaska.
WE SEND ONLY FUN STUFF ⤵
