Hiking and exploring Volcano Capulin in New Mexico and I’m trying to get back on track with fitness–10K steps by sundown… stopping a few other places on my road trip to Florida.
I removed the rear seats in my van, and when I was ready to put everything back, my van was dead. I managed to reorganize my gear and get things started again, but I’m still unsure if I have bigger issues.
In this solo road trip vlog, I explore Horseshoe Bend & Four corners, but it was Monument Valley where I found the solitude I was searching for.
I did some car camping in my no build minivan camper, hiked the Toadstool Hoodoos, and tried to stay warm at night. My favorite part was solo hiking the Wildcat Trail in Monument Valley with wild horses and the desire to get lost.
If you enjoy solo travel, van life, or just the idea of doing life your own way, you’ll probably feel at home here.
✦ My Van Life Lesson: When things are not working out, keep pushing. Keep going.
I visited Horseshoe Bend, Toadstool Hoodoos, Monument Valley, and Four Corners. What an amazing adventure! I did some car camping, solo hiking, tried to avoid crowds, and struggled to find a place to sleep. I’m still searching for something, but I’m no longer trying to figure out my next chaper… because I’m already in it‐‐ Traveling in my van exploring this beautiful USA.
My introvert nature was on full alert in Page, Arizona. I avoided crowds and skipped Horseshoe Bend, but I did hike Hanging Garden Trail and a couple other incredible places. Tackling the fear of the unknown… with every new adventure. I loved camping and exploring this BEAUTIFUL part of the United States.
I’ve wanted to see the Grand Canyon my whole life. I decided to book the historic hotel for this amazing trip. Thankful. I did some hiking, exploring, a mule ride, and I had great meals while staying at El Tovar. Grand Canyon was an unforgettable stop, and I will be back… Next time, camping IN the canyon!
I’m still lingering in my Sedona experience and trying to sort things out… I’m getting close! 😉
What pulled me into Sedona? I spent a few days in Sedona, and I hope I’m never the same. I did some body work, breath work, hiking, and talking with a group of wonderful people who wanted to help me. I was ready for this adventure without realizing it. SO INCREDIBLY THANKFUL!
As I head West through Arizona, I’m making life changes. I hike through Petrified Forest National Park and work on my 10K steps, drive through the Wigwam Motel, stand on the corner in Winslow, Arizona, and check out the Meteor Crater all before I make my way to Sedona for a few days of car camping, hiking, and getting some help with sleep.
