    A valuable experience that everyone should try at least once in their adult life. It's amazing how reassuring it is to know how little one needs to get by and how much unnecessary baggage we accumulate and carry with us all the time.

    AMAZING! We live in our 2005 Airstream Classic. It's a 30 ft so slightly bigger and obviously newer. We're not doing a total gut job but I agree on the everything being beige and brown. We're slowly changing everything out. Hopefully by the time we hit the road next year (or soon after) we'll have new bamboo floors to replace the laminate too. Great renovation! Thanks for the inspiration!

    I love the scrap pieces of wood, the bamboo floors, and the colour of the cabinets - very unique! Salt Lake City looks beautiful, I love the mountains! Your daughter is too cute as well. I would keep the home, while it may not be suitable in the future eventually you might want that lifestyle again, and you put so much hard work into it. :)

    I love it! What clever ideas, too, that can be used in any space. I know that Jordan will probably have to move up to something else as his life changes in the future, but I hope that he always holds onto this awesome Airstream so that his baby girl can always have her childhood home close-by. I know she will cherish these memories. So will Jordan.
