HUGE NEWS: We're changing out name people!!! Why? 1)It's hard to say, remember and find for a lot of people 2) we want to incorporate all of our travel and trips. So we'll be rolling out the change on all our socials and this channel. Let us know what you think!!!!
New name: Nurse and the Nomad
We got to Campo Archelon, an eco-camp in Bahia De Los Angeles. We check into the cafe/office. And you definitely can't beat the price, $6 USD per person, per night. So for the both of us for two nights cost $24 USD!
We get a nice spot along the beach and get our vans set up for the next few days. Cue string lights, mat, chairs and grills. We enjoy hanging out and getting dinner ready. However, the thing we weren't prepared for: gravity winds! These winds are created by flowing down the slopes of the mountains and usually occur at night. Man, these winds were strong, so much so that we actually set up our indoor table and used it for the first time. All 4 of us were able to fit comfortably. We just had to make sure and stake our mat down and bring our chairs inside so they didn't go missing overnight.
We wake up to some noisy neighbors: sea gulls. It's time for coffee and a bit of exercise, such as blowing up our inflatable standup paddle board. We show you around the grounds a bit, including the area for sorting food waste, recyclable and non-recyclables. Then it's time to SUP, even if it may be a bit windy. Check out our amazing time paddling around the little beach. Afterwards, we hang out: enjoying our roof top deck and some snacks. I get to enjoy the shower at the eco-camp before getting dinner ready. We enjoy dinner and a bon fire before heading in for the night.
We wake up are are ready to head further south, destination: Mulege or Bahia Concepcion. So, make sure to subspace and follow us to see where we end up.

Hi! We're Chris and Tracy. We're from the Los Angeles area. We've been married since 2009! Chris grew up traveling with his family and Tracy caught the travel bug during our honeymoon. And we've been on the go since as much as our jobs allow.
Covid has caused so many problems for so many individuals. We found ourselves in a situation that many others found themselves in.....cancelled plans for international #travel. Working in the healthcare industry, as administrator and practitioner, we found ourselves feeling the extra stress without an escape. Upon the initial opening in California in May, 2020 we decided to make the jump and buy a converted #campervan so we could still travel domestically as a means to escape the stressors of our jobs and covid. It also allowed us the ability to travel with our 3 dogs: Keyna, Maya, and Luna.
Upon seeing our van, we both commented that it was the perfect shade of USC Trojan cardinal. Being lifelong fans of the football team and Tracy being an alumni, we knew we had a perfect play for a Trojan inspired name with our newly purchased 2018 (used) Winnebago Travato. And that's how Helen of Troy(vato) got her name.
We started out with the hopes that we could get away once a month to make our investment worth it. We've been amazed at how much we've used our van!!! Since purchasing our van on 5/28/20, we have gone 25,000 miles and have visited 9 states and 10 #nationalparks. We've been enjoying documenting our trips via Instagram and wanted to go one step further. We love watching #vanlife videos but noticed most were doing it full time. We thought we may have a niche to fill being #parttimevanlifers. And that's where our vision for this #travelvlog channel began.
