Working the dream life for 17+ years.

Nearly every day is a day of discovery about winter living in Alaska, and cold climates in general. I’ve spent a lifetime avoiding the coldest weather in the country, and while I won’t say that’s been a mistake, I will say that I have been missing out on so much beauty in the world. Today, I’m trying to track new things that catch my attention, …
The sunny winter solstice spirit of the north in Willow, Alaska can be seen even during the darkest time of the year, like during a solstice lake walk at night.
One of the best examples of the right winter attitude we’ve seen so far, is the Alaska Bachelor Society’s annual auction and Wilderness Woman Competition.
Finally, we found Denali. She made an up-close and stunning appearance on a sub-zero December day while driving to Talkeetna’s Wilderness Woman Competition.
On Thanksgiving Day, I’m so grateful for a few years of meditating with a Beginners Mind approach to life’s most challenging situations, like coping with cold and snow.
Watching Alaska’s seasons change from our cabin windows, this video is a reminder of what’s just ahead in a couple of weeks. Winter is so close we can feel it.
How Brad Stulberg’s new book about “Rugged Flexibility” is helping us in Alaska and beyond.
On a rainy camping weekend at Byers Lake, we went in search of Denali, and learned what it takes to see North America’s highest and most spectacular mountain.
Before driving the Alaska Highway, RV internet access was a big concern. We even considered getting Starlink, but here’s why I’m glad we didn’t cave in to fear.
We took a VERY quick trip up the Alaska Highway from Colorado to home in Willow, and get to know the local flavor as fall sets in to this amazing place.
Winter in Alaska has begun! We are settled in to our Willow cabin, ready to begin the nuttiest year of our lives. Here’s a few details about the journey north.
With less than three days until our Alaska departure day, we are rushing around with last minute packing, shipping, and preps for our Project M Alaska journey.
Just a video about how we are getting online RVing to Alaska with ATT cellular broadband on our phones and a weBoost booster built for truckers and overlanders.
Prepping to go north to Alaska puts our planning skills to the test as Jim builds out the Project M camper and I get our life ready to relocate for winter.
We did it! The Arctic Fox is gone, we said goodbye to fifth wheel RV living. It’s time to prepare for our Project M experience of a simpler nomadic lifestyle.
