Sometimes, making that initial leap into living tiny is the hardest part. What do you do with all your stuff? Should you rent out or sell your house? So many people who want to live nomadically get bogs down in all these details, and end up never making their dreams a reality.
Justin Chimienti and Kandace Karcher are the perfect example of two people who gave up EVERYTHING to pursue their dreams of traveling across the U.S. in a tiny trailer trailer. They gave up a business, a career, a house and tons of stuff in order to make their cross-country trek.
This couple has so much good advice about downsizing, life on the road, and how they changed in the months they traveled across the country in their small trailer.

About Justin and Kandace:

Justin and Kandace have shared their passion for camping and travel ever since they rented a teardrop trailer and went on a camping trip shortly after they started dating.
That first trip was the catalyst for many more camping adventures to come. Shortly after that first trip, Kandace bought a 10 foot teardrop trailer so they could go on weekend camping trips up and down the coast of CA.
A couple years later they upgraded to a U-haul camper then to an Airstream. Earlier this year, they decided it was time to make a major life change. Kandace sold her house and her business, Justin left his lucrative sales career and they decided it was time to jump off the hamster wheel and live the nomad life for a while
