World's Longest Cave | Van Life Camping Adventures

YES, You read that right! 426 miles...can you believe that? Though we weren't able to explore the entire cave, we were grateful to be there to experience what we could! Next time, we might book the tour like those other cave dwellers! Too cool.

We are so grateful we got to explore so many iconic places in Kentucky & Tennessee, including: The Great Smoky Mountains, the Louisville Sluggers Museum, the dang KENTUCKY DERBY & of course, Mammoth Cave (the world's longest)

We hope you enjoyed being on this journey with us! Thanks for being here & thanks for being PATIENT with us in getting this bad boy posted.

Who are we?

Hey Guys! We are Ryan, Mary & Cisco. We have hit the road in our converted Ram Promaster van in pursuit of seeing this beautiful world & making lifelong memories together. We started this journey in our first RV; a Thor Four Winds 28A. However, we recently decided to switch over to a van. We felt it was the best decision for us & better fits our purpose for life on the road. We sold our home in Maryland, started renting out our townhouse, somehow fit EVERYTHING we own into a 10x15 storage unit & embraced full-time RV life & NOW - van life! We are starting with traveling the States & would love to push it even further. We feel so blessed & thank the good Lord for this opportunity to see, learn and experience brand new places in our home-on-wheels. We would love to have you along for the journey...to laugh with us, cry with us, celebrate with us and, of course, fail & pick up the pieces with us.
