About Elizabeth Carlson

We started our Airstream journey when our son was born in Denver - March 2020 and the Covid pandemic hit. We were desperate to show him off to his grandparents in Chicago and New England and had lots of plans for summer, but flying and hotels quickly became suspect and we didn't like our options. We took to Facebook marketplace and connected with a lovely retired couple who were selling their rig - the husband had recently become sick and the spouse couldn't manage the rig herself - we took over the reins on their 2016 flying cloud with the additional promise that we'd document our east coast trip that they always dreamed of taking, but didn't get a chance to do. We spent 7 weeks on the road with our 2 month old at the time and loved every minute. We decided our family vacations, in the safe confines of our airstream where you can eat, sleep, cook, shower, use a toilet etc was the socially distanced vacationing we'd be doing for the next couple years and certainly enjoy even when the world solved for a vaccine. Net net, we really loved what flexibility, comfort, and safety the airstream provided us on our adventures, and we are enthusiastic about having others experience adventure in a similar way, so that's the reasoning behind us renting while we're not using the rig. Happy travels!
