At #brycecanyon dogs are allowed on #RimTrail , all paved baths to viewpoints (Sunrise Point, Sunset Point, Inspiration Point, #BrycePoint) and shared park-use path! It’s a perfect place to enjoy scenic easy hikes with my Chloe @chloeandtravel ! The weather is currently so cool here (only 75F, and cloudy/breezy)! Love southern #Utah this time of year

Instagram post 2338166413140776064_485380327 Being sick sucks. But it especially sucks if you’re living in a van. #ad Keeping healthy while living on the road is one of our main concerns about #vanlife. And we all know that true health begins and ends within the digestive system. So one of my van morning routines is drinking @florahealthy Flor-Essence. The 8 herbs in Flor-Essence help tune up and support my detoxification organs (liver, kidney,…) in their jobs of neutralizing and removing accumulated toxins and wastes. Use “CLEANSE15” to get 15% off any size bottle of Flor•Essence at www.florahealth.com #BeFloraHealthy #CleanseHappy
Instagram post 2337668092865479594_485380327 We visited #carmelbythesea just in time to see their new outdoor mural, the #CarmelShell, by artist @marie_clare_ . This new public art serves as a symbol unique to #Carmel and one that honors a  sense of place, artistic heritage, and history. Next time when you are in Carmel and want to catch a glimpse of this mural, stop by this corner – Mission and 6th.

Although the overlook trail to #mcwayfalls is closed, there are still spots along California State Route 1 where you can stop, enjoy a beautiful view of the fall, and take pictures! Just type McWay Falls in your google map, it will direct you to a vista point parking and from there walk north for 5 mins! Walk past #juliapfeifferburnsstatepark (the park was also closed when we were there) and you will see the fall on your left)!

Instagram post 2312269414881347655_485380327 Almost without fail, the first question I get when I tell someone that I live in a van is “Where do you shower?” The answer is easy! There are tons of ways! 🚿 🚿🚿
.
1. Indoor shower: When we set out to build ”The Ark” into a full-time living tiny home on wheels, we knew we HAD to have a full shower with hot water (Many vanlifers are okay with not having a wet room)! We just value our privacy and the ability to shower whenever we want to (5-6mins per person, not letting the water run continuously)! .
2. For longer showers, we have many options: gym membership at 24-hour fitness (access to showers, steam rooms, saunas, bathrooms, and workout equipment), friends’/family houses, nature baths (hot springs, streams, rivers,...), campground facilities, recreation centers,...
3. As part of my job, I’m often invited to stay at hotels/Airbnb’s for collabs (2-3 times a month, 2-4 day per stay) so that definitely helps with our shower situation too! (Before vanlife, we paid almost 2k per month for rent+utilities and we were rarely home 😅) ! .
