The Life Of A Girl, Her Dog, And Little Blue Bus

Hello! My name is Lexis. I am a 21-year-old girl with a passion to travel and explore new places. Upon graduating high school I knew I didn’t want to jump right into college. I was never into books, nor was I the type that wanted to sit and study in a classroom. I didn’t even know what career I wanted to pursue. I felt that I could enjoy my life in a different way other than sitting in a classroom and if down the road I decided college was for me, then I would choose what I wanted to do and make a decision from there. ​ During my years of high school and after I traveled to all kinds of different places with my mom, whether it was a trip to an island or somewhere in the states, it was always a thrill to explore new places, meet new people, and see new things. Working five days a week and saving up my money allowed me to take my time in deciding what I wanted to do.

​ At the age of 18 and shortly after my first outdoor adventure with my mom, I realized my love for the freedom of being outdoors, camping, and the peaceful surroundings in all the various places I have gone. My mother and I used to camp with our 1965 Serro Scotty Hilander travel trailer. It was so much fun to take it out to campsites and set up and enjoy the camping experience. My mom wanted something that didn’t need to be towed so she decided she wanted to start a bus conversion.

Watching my mother build and complete hers made me realize how nice it would be to have my own little home on wheels. ​ I was following others on Instagram for a while watching them travel the world in both vans and bus conversions. I was torn on wanting a van or wanting a bus because of the frequent weather changes my state has.
