Exploring Colorado One Month at a Time — for a Year on a Budget
From snowy peaks to small-town eats — we’re seeing it all & documenting it for you.
Where Are We Now & Where Are We Going Next
Where are we now? March 2025
We are staying at a Airbnb in Old Colorado City in Colorado Springs which is our home town. See why we decided to stay local the first month. It may be the smartest decision we’ve ever made.
Where are we going next? April 2025
Next we’re heading to Florissant Colorado. We’re still fairly close to the Springs but we’ve chose a Airbnb cabin out in the country so we get some much needed solitude. Training our brains to slow down is going to be our goal.
From the San Juans to the Rocky Mountains.
We may be from Texas originally, but after 15 years of Colorado sunsets, trail dust, and altitude headaches, this place is home. We’ve spent countless weekends exploring on a budget — Jeepin’, hikin’, campin’, and snackin’ with our dogs in tow. These paws have seen some epic spots. Now we run our businesses from our laptops and the tailgate. Curious how we pulled it off? Tap that button and get to know us better — we think it’s a good story.
Traveling with Dogs.
When we started planning this epic Colorado quest (or, let’s be honest—mostly winging it), one thing was non-negotiable: the dogs were coming. Sanza the Huskita and Ari the Chihuahua may sound like they wandered out of Westeros, but trust us—they’re much more into belly rubs than battles. Both are rescue pups with Olympic-level separation anxiety, so leaving them behind wasn’t an option. Want to know how we travel full-time with two dogs without losing our minds (or our throw pillows)? Click below to see what we’ve learned about the best dog parks, dog-friendly hikes, pup-welcoming patios, and how this life on the road isn’t just possible—it’s pawsitively awesome.
