What happens when you trade stability for an aluminum tube and a prayer?

A raw, honest memoir about healing from grief on the road, where every breakdown (mechanical and emotional) becomes a lesson in resilience, solitude, and the unexpected kindness of strangers. Brian Smith left everything behind after personal loss and divorce, choosing to live full-time in a vintage 1979 Airstream Sovereign with his German Shepherd, Raven. What followed was 22,000 miles across 15 states, $8,000 in repairs, and one year of profound transformation.
