The adventures shouldn't stop when you have kids!

The Peachys

We are a family of 5 from Utah currently living in the woods of Maine after converting a van and traveling across the country in it. We try and live a minimalist life and believe life is better with less stuff and more adventures. We love to get outside together and enjoy all the oceans and mountains have to offer. We spend most of our time camping in whatever way possible (backpacking, car camping, adventure van, kayak-camping), mountain biking, hiking, climbing, and surfing. We've been to 22 National Parks & counting (plus 9 Canadian National Parks).
