This is our itinerary for 18 days spent traveling all over Iceland in March 2021. If you’re looking at planning your trip, you’re totally welcome to steal our itinerary below and just copy it day-for-day, or you can take the information from this blog article and sort it out into your own.
Read MoreIt’s time to break down the nuts and bolts of our New Zealand budget travel. Almost every traveler wants to go to NZ but all you hear about is how expensive it is.
Since we’ve had a ton of questions on budget, we thought we’d deep dive into this location and tell you where our dollars went.
Read MoreAfter the disastrous border crossing in an RV into Canada, we decided not to take any chances for round two! Even though we were entering back into the US and should be greeted with a hug and a cup of hot cocoa, we knew that it would be assumed we were a threat to national security until proven otherwise.
Read MoreWe had over a 1700 mile journey on the Alaska highway as we made our journey to Alaska from the lower 48. That’s a long drive no matter what! When you factor in the reduced speed in the RV, stopping to checkout random points of interest/wilderness sightings, and fueling up way too often, it becomes a REALLY long drive.
Read MoreWhen in Croatia, you might as well look for Daenerys dragons. Amiright?
After an incredible day at Plitvice Lakes, the Diemers continue their March south and make a stop in Split. Between stuffing kabobs in their gobs, they make time to visit nerd dream destinations such as Fortress Klis and Diocletian's palace.

Read MoreKrka waterfalls VS Plitvice Lakes- If you can only do one, know that you can swim in Krka waterfalls. While it’s teeming with other tourists, it’s also an absolute blast and set in a beautiful national park. Plitvice Lakes are a much more tranquil and hands off experience, although they are surrounded by great hiking paths.
Read MoreTripped: Episode 3 starts off with a blast. Jet lagged at 4am we spontaneously decide to road trip to Croatia (Germany was too cold, duh). With only 3 hours of sleep but a liter of "Power Up" we get ready to tackle the day. To our surprise we can't even get out of the country before we need a nap. When the weather turns poor so does our moods and Allison declares she is the "happiest she's ever been to find a McDonnalds". Alls well that ends well: the next day touring the city of Salzburg was totally worth the trip! Talk about detour!
Read MoreIn all the prep, planning and saving for your upcoming trip, don't forget to pick up an International Driving Permit before you leave home. Getting your International Driving Permit isn't as fun and sexy as picking out your new swimsuit for your trip, but you're going to be glad you have it when the time comes. Here are three reasons

Read MoreCongratulations! It's finally happening. Whether it took you days or years to pull the trigger, you've booked a flight to the other side of the world to see the Sounds, run with the sheep, and follow in Frodo's footsteps.
Before you land in Kiwi country, here's a few things that you'll be happy to have in your [figurative] back pocket.
Read MoreWe’re taking you along on one of the most quintessential things to do in New Zealand- The Tongariro Alpine Crossing. We thought the Tongariro day hike was the best hike we did during our six week visit to New Zealand. That’s probably the least controversial opinion anyone could have by the way. On the trek, hikers get to see volcanoes, march up Mt Doom (Mount Ngauruhoe), and visit Red Crater, Blue Lake and the Emerald Lakes.
Read MoreABEL TASMAN - South Island New Zealand Campervan Roadtrip Last week on the South Island of New Zealand in Abel Tasman on our campervan roadtrip! Don’t worry….we luck out and it rains almost the entire time. Come with us as we go cockle hunting with locals. Don’t know what a cockle is? Neither did we! We’ll also explore bits of the Abel Tasman track through the National Park and spend some time on Apple Beach. One of the coolest places we visited in New Zealand was Pupu Springs (Te Waikoropupū Springs). In this completely impossible to pronounce area visitors can check out the purest water outside of Antarctica.
