About Us

Welcome!

Hi there! We are the Curren Family. We traveled full time in our Airstream from 2013-2017 and now split our time between our small condo in Teton Valley, ID and the road.

As avid, outdoor, travel and adventure enthusiasts we are here to provide tips, advice, and inspiration to help you develop healthier and stronger family relationships.

#ThankfulForFamilies Instagram Contest & Giveaway 2015

ThankfulForFamilies Blog Image

What better way to celebrate Thanksgiving and the spirit of giving than to talk about how grateful we are for our families? I’m incredible grateful for all the time I am able to spend with my family. We eat together, sleep together (pretty easy when you live in 188 square feet of space!) and play together. I love watching them grow and I love how we are developing our relationships every single day. I wouldn’t give up this time for anything!

In the spirit of Thanksgiving, a group of Outdoor Family Bloggers has gotten together to celebrate families and give away some AMAZING prizes. This giveaway has been in the planning for MONTHS and I’m so excited its finally here!

So, celebrate with us! Let us know why you are grateful for your family, and you could possibly win some really great gear to help fuel your next adventure!
