Welcome! We are Sentry and Isabel Kelly! We’re a travel couple who live half of the year in South Lake Tahoe and the other half is spent traveling in our self-converted camper van! We are the ultimate budget travelers, living on the road for 4+ years with our dog, Fitz seeking adventure everywhere we land!
As well as being adventure lovers, we are also well-seasoned van builders! We have converted multiple vans for adventurers ready to join the VanLife community and we have a ton of DIY resources if you’re looking to build your own! We are excited to share our knowledge and experience on all things travel, VanLife, and of course adventure (who saw that one coming).
