Real Talk + Field Notes

Heya, I’m Bailey.

I’m a stay-at-home mom… who quickly realized I didn’t actually want to stay home all the time.

With a background as a backpacking guide, camp counselor, and search and rescue volunteer, I started taking my toddler on small local hikes and outdoor adventures—just to shake off the cabin fever.

Turns out… those became our favorite moments together. The adventures kept growing, and so did our confidence.

Since then, we’ve traveled full-time in a camper van, moved from San Francisco to New Zealand, and kept right on camping, hiking, paddling, biking, and venturing into the backcountry with our kids.

Now we’re homeschooling and finding adventure in the little moments too.

I hope our story—and everything you find here—gives you the encouragement (and practical tools) to make memories with your family too.

Your adventure doesn’t have to stop here!
