About the Faiolas
We started our full-time RV lifestyle in January 2019 and life on the road in December. Every day is a blessing, and another day we can’t believe we get to live this wonderful lifestyle. In January 2019, we finished selling all our belongings, including our home, and moved to Texas. Tony transferred his job while we spent a year becoming residents of Texas. In December, he “retired,” and we started on our journey. The best thing we decided as a family was to live this lifestyle. The second best thing we ever did was buy a Jeep. HAHA! The adventures are now off the beaten path with non-stop breathtaking views. We would love for you to join us on our journey as we share through our podcast, blog posts, and videos. You will find information on campgrounds, National Parks, Jeep trails, homeschool, off-the-beaten-path adventures, and so much more.
