WHO

THIS WORKSHOP EMPOWERS ANYONE SEEKING TO EMBARK ON

THE WILD JOURNEY OF #VANLIFE. IT IS TAILORED TO WOMEN.

THIS IS NOT A RETREAT. THIS IS A HANDS-ON, REAL LIFE COURSE TO GIVE YOU THE FULL #VANLIFE EXPERIENCE.

WE PROVIDE YOU WITH YOUR OWN VAN. YOU WILL LEARN TO MANEUVER THE VAN TO EASILY DRIVE, PARK, AND THE MOST CHALLENGING, HOW TO BACK INTO A PARKING SPOT.

YOU WILL LEARN DIFFERENCES IN BLM LAND VS. CAMPGROUNDS VS. CITY PARKING AND ORDINANCES.

GAIN AN UNDERSTANDING IN THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN BLM LAND, CAMPGROUNDS, CITY PARKING AND ORDINANCES.

WHERE

THE WILD BY THE MILE #VANLIFE WORKSHOP STARTS IN SAN DIEGO THEN GUIDES YOU OUT TO THE WILD.

WHY

DURING A RECENT INTERVIEW, A JOURNALIST ASKED, "ARE YOU SICK OF PEOPLE ASKING - ‘ARE YOU SCARED?’”

THAT QUESTION SPIRALED ME TO REFLECT ON THE MANY QUESTIONS THAT FLOOD MY INBOX… - ARE YOU SCARED? HOW DID YOU KNOW THIS WAS THE LIFESTYLE FOR YOU? CAN I JOIN YOU? WHAT DO I TELL MY PARENTS? WHERE DO I START?

I CREATED THIS INTIMATE WORKSHOP TO GIVE YOU FIRST HAND EXPERIENCE TO THE INS AND OUTS OF #VANLIFE WITHOUT THE FINANCIAL, EMOTIONAL, AND LIFE CHANGING COMMITMENT.

I'M HERE TO PROVIDE YOU ANSWERS AND THE FOUNDATIONAL TOOLS TO START YOUR OWN #VANLIFE ADVENTURE.
