About
A blog and podcast about living in a van, American travel, American history, movement for the sake of motion and just generally getting out and doing interesting things.
As the title says I have no apparent reason for this trip. But I don’t think one is needed. It’s a lot more fun than what I would be doing if I were staying put and that’s enough of a reason for me.

Hi
I am the youngest Browne you met outside of Oatman late November. You have a really great site with good writing, images, and general appeal to keep reading.
If you are ever in the Big Apple, feel free to contact my sister and I.

Safe travels

Thanks for the note. I took down your phone number and then deleted it from the site. I’m not sure when I’ll make it out there. I’ve got some stuff happening on the west coast in May that I want to stick around for and I don’t know that I want to do in a van up there. :) But I’ll definitely let you know when I’m there. Thanks for reading!

Hi Jess! I see that you’re back from New Zealand…and it sounds like the rest of your trip was great. Glad to hear it! Hopefully my pictures made it to you - will enjoy seeing yours when you post them. I agree that guides make traveling a whole different experience. My two weeks in Australia were spent solo and I loved it! However, the next 8 days meeting Kat & Richard, and the whole TUI gang were excellent too. The guides certainly provided much appreciated insider information.
If your year-in-a-car takes you on the road to NY, you’ll let me know!

Great to see your pictures. I think I’ll get them posted on my website, if that’s OK with you, along with some of mine. How’s the van doing? Probably a little more sedentary than New Zealand! I wish you happy trails, new adventures and peace be with you.
