Here's a bit about me and this story....
I grew up living a very conventional life like so many! In 2007 I decided to leave my career path as a social worker/therapist and try something new in the online world ... then in 2008? well, things went south after that! After a few years of what I call my "monastery in the mountains" of California, I decided to let my home go, sell it all, and see where life would take me in a tiny trailer in the desert southwest!
What I didn't plan on was finding I liked living in a tiny home with wheels and that I was not cut out for the homesteading fantasy that I dreamed of. Now, seven+ years later I still live in that same tiny trailer on a cow farm, but have a new mission and dream: to convert a horse trailer into a long term home, convert a van into a work/travel vehicle, and begin sharing a message I never would have dreamed of finding. All of this has been eerily similar to the desert monks of long ago, only in today's world we have video, the internet, and a new road culture emerging that I believe will change everything for those of us who just can't sit still!
