We love living with less stuff in less space.

We're very intentional with the gear we have. It's taken time experimenting what works best for us. 

Here's the gear we use and can't live without.

Living in a Camper

 

Sleep Setup

We sleep better in our camper than any other bed we've slept in.  We thought it was, "We love our RV!" We finally realized it was the mattress we inherited! It's amazing!

Water Setup

Water Hose by Camco

We use this hose to fill up our fresh water tank and to hook up to city water when we're at a campsite. 

Water Filter and Flexible Hose Protector by Camco

We change this out every six months and purifies the water as we move from water to source to water source.

Water Container 7 Gallon by Reliance

We keep this extra 7 gallon jug in our tow vehicle for water bottle fill- ups.

 

Heater Setup

Portable Propane Heater by Mr. Heater

We use this when we're off grid during chilly mornings and evenings.

Propane Bottles 2 Pack by Coleman

The Mr. Buddy takes two propane bottles at a time.

We use the Generatr 1200E and the Generatr 100 to power our computers.

Plugging into Power at a Campsite

Surge Protector 30 Amp SSP-30XL by Progressive Industries

We use this to protect our camper from a possible surge from the campsite's power outlet. 

 

Exterior Setup

RhinoFlex 15' RV Sewer Hose by Camco

For dumping our grey and black water tanks. 

Wheel Chock Blocks 2 Pack by Camco

We use four chock blocks total to go on each side of the camper's wheels. This is so we don't roll forward or backward when parked.

Tow Vehicle Setup

Trailer Towing Brake Control by Reese

We got this trailer brake control installed in our tow vehicle. 

Wheel Chock Blocks 2 Pack by Camco

When we're parked on a decline, sometimes we put two chock blocks on the camper and two on the back tires of our tow vehicle.

In the Kitchen

On the Stove

Cast Iron Skillet

Keep it seasoned and everything tastes delic. And, nothing sticks!

Silicone Pot Holder

We use this as our "oven mitt" to handle the cast iron skillet.

Saucepan with Cover

We boil water in this every morning for our coffee and french press. And, use it on occasion for soup or pasta.

On the Table

Melamine Dinnerware

I love my melamine dinner ware. It feels like real dishware instead of plastic camping dishes. 

Mason Jars for Cups

Gotta have mason jars somewhere, right ladies? I use these for flowers, too.

French Press for Coffee

In three years, we're on our fourth french press (I keep dropping them). Can't live without a french press!

Food Prep

Serrated Cheese Knife by Cutco

This is our only knife. We love it! It cuts everything we need: meat, cheese, tomatoes, fruit. We use it every meal, everyday. Seriously.

Cutting Board

We use a small one to work in our small kitchen.

Working iN OUr Camper

 

At the Desk

Laptop Stand by Roost

We were growing hunchbacks working on our laptops. Now, we use Roost Stands to bring the screen up and get better posture. 

Bluetooth Keyboard by Logitech

The Roost Stand makes our laptop keyboards awkward to use, so we got wireless keyboards to use below the stand. 

Wireless Keyboard by Logitech

The Roost Stand makes the trackpad awkward to use, too. So we have wireless mice. 

 
 

Internet

We use a Verizon hotspot with a 12 GB data plan each month. Verizon has the best service around the country. When we can't get Verizon service, we use our AT&T phones as a hot spot. 

Mobile Hotspot Jetpack MiFi 4G by Verizon

Storage for data

Storage has been our biggest headache. Two external hard drives have crashed on us. Now, we save everything redundantly in three different places- the cloud, our flash drive and an external hard drive. We've chosen droppable, military grade storage devices.

Journals

Weatherproof Journal 

We always carry a small journal for new ideas that come to us spontaneously. These are awesome for on the trail if it rains or if you sweat like crazy like us! 

 

Guide Books

We've read these front to back and they're super helpful.

We used this to figure out how to have reliable internet while constantly traveling. A must read!

Awesome guide for figuring out all the logistics when living a mobile lifestyle and traveling to other countries. 

This book made us realize it's possible! Very helpful for figuring out VPN's and how to  run a business in different countries.
