We are pretty stoked here at CurrentlyWandering to have reached over 10,000 followers on Instagram! I’m still blown away by the communities we’ve found with both our Airstream/full time family travelers and our outdoor adventure friends. There are so many amazing people that we’ve been able to connect with, be inspired by, and best of all…
There are a few terms that get tossed around in the RV/camping world that are probably unfamiliar to most people. While I’ve never seen an actual dictionary to define these terms, we’ve been around for awhile and we’ve seen a general consensus among the full time crowd. Many travelers prefer to stay in RV Parks,…
Herbal Essences Naked Dry Shampoo is my favorite dry shampoo, too — and I’ve tried a LOT of varieties. It’s the only one that doesn’t leave my scalp feeling super itchy, and I feel like it’s also lighter than a lot of other varieties so it doesn’t weigh my hair down. I’ll have to give the Action wipes a try. I usually use Burt’s Bees Sensitive Facial Cleansing Towelettes. They aren’t super heavy duty, but my skin is fairly sensitive and these don’t irritate me. I think this winter we’ll be doing more dry camping than I was brave enough to try last winter, so I’ll need something more heavy duty. Thanks for the tips!ReplyCancel
[…] Cleaning up after an adventure can sometimes take the experience from great to amazing! There’s nothing like a quick “shower” after a really hard ride, or being able to freshen up in the backcountry. Action Wipes has donated their “Survival Kit” to “Cleanse, Soothe, and Protect”. It’s a BPA-Free Loksak bag that contains 6 Action Wipes Singles to cleanse, a 1/2 oz Healing Honey Stick and Healing Honey Lip Goo to Soothe (dry skin, bug bites, rashes, sunburns, you name it) and a 1/2 oz Natural Sun Screen to protect your skin from harmful UV rays (blog post on Action Wipes here).

I’m a hammock guy. We added an ENO hammock to our gear collection long ago, and it comes out whenever we get the chance. We read in them, work in them, and even snuggle the kids in them. The ENO DoubleNest hammock we’ve been using have been good, but we have not been happy with…
Looking at the photos of your Atlas straps, it’s very obvious that they’ve been left in the sun for a loooong time (thread is bleached). I too am curious about the long term durability of the ultimate straps but you should know that ANY strap exposed to long term UV will eventually fail. Safe hammocking!ReplyCancel
[…] Hammocks are all the craze right now and for good reason. We use ours all the time and have found ways to rig it to the truck when two trees are not readily available. We’ve been impressed with the quality of Ultimate Hammocks, their prices, and most recently their Ultimate Hammock Straps. Definitely the lightest, smallest ones on the market right now (blog post here). […]ReplyCancel
Smartphones are a full-time traveler’s best friend, providing music, navigation, email, social media, a camera, and occasionally even phone calls. Of all the places we put our phone on a daily basis, there are two more important than most. We have a car mount that holds the phone in a good place for navigation, and…
In the photo i see you’ve attached the magnetic portion of the mount to the wall. Did you buy the whole mount and remove the magnetic part and tape it to the wall? I don’t see that these are sold separately.
Thanks for all your help and tips. Absolutely invaluable to a new AirStream owner. You’ve done all the trial and error!ReplyCancel
Traveling the United States, we’ve visited many different areas and ecosystems. Beaches, forests, swamps, and mountains are all different and provide many learning opportunities. Many of the National Park sites we’ve visited have well-stocked gift shops with relevant books about the area. One of my favorite series of books for the kids are The Cat…
My favorite adventure gear right now is my running shoes. They’ve taken me so many places!
This is a fantastic giveaway! I’ve enjoyed reading your reviews over the last few months and have bookmarked several of the items to purchase for our family. I wouldn’t mind winning them, though 🙂
Winning is always better, right? Love that you run!
I have been eyeing the camera clip and would love it win it! When are you coming back our way? I’d love to see you!
Not soon enough! I keep lobbying for this fall, but if not for sure the spring!
Great give away and congrats on your success!
Thank you!
Nice to hear a review on the outdoor wedding bands, we have been looking into them but there seems to be so many new companies to choose from now.
And hello! I’ve been a follower on IG but didn’t know you had a blog, excited to read of your adventuring when we aren’t outside ourselves 🙂 Oh and thanks for the chance at the giveaway.
Glad to hear it! There are a few companies, but we’ve been really happy with Enso! Glad you found our blog!
Love this – congratulations guys! That camera clip is on my must have list!
A good back pack with kids is a must.
What a great giveaway – I would love to win those hammocks! congrats on reaching 10,000 Insta followers!
I love giveaways. 🙂 Thank you!
the power gear rope style light is great in a tent and love it
We haven’t had the chance to try it in our tent, but I’m super excited to!
It looks like we were in Jackson, Wyoming and possibly Yellowstone at the same time. That is what I get for dropping social media. I just figured full timers would avoid Yellowstone like the plague in July. Sorry we missed you as we must have been close.
oh man! We totally would have loved to see you guys! We’ll be out west for the foreseable future so let us know if you come out this way!
My family loves our ready to go backpack filled with snacks, binoculars,magnifying glass, and water. Just discovered your awesome blog and love it!
Ready to go is the BEST! Makes getting out so much easier. Glad you found us!
Backpacks, so we can hike with our kids! The camera clip would be awesome!
Good for you! Love families that get out and hike together!
My favorite adventure gear is definitely my eno double deluxe hammock. My back has never thanked me more. My mountain hardware sleeping bag has kept that back warm for around 15 years though, so it deserves mention 🙂
AMEN on the hammocks. Glad your sleeping bag has been great too. I’m pretty fond of mine as well. 🙂
Wow! That camera clip is also on my list since you’ve first mentioned it… and I think of it every time I hike without it! Everything sounds great though! Love it all! Thanks!
I have had my eyes on that camera clip since I first heard about it from your blog. The backpack looks awesome too. Thanks for hosting this and congrats!
We’re in the planning stages for a long term family RV trip and came across your site during our research. So excited about your site and this giveaway. We are still learning what we need but we know a good backpack for each kiddo is a must!
we love our camel packs since we are mostly day hikers at this stage we can stuff snacks in there too.
My favorite piece of adventure gear would be my backpack from college that we still take hiking with us!
What a great giveaway! I love my spibelt for ease of carrying just a couple necessities.
My favorite gear is my Osprey Aura pack. However its too big for day hikes so I will have to check out this day pack.
What fabulous companies! I have been dying to try the loominoodle light!
Ultimate hammocks because I think it’s so relaxing to have a hammock while camping!
Love the lights. A good hammock is always in demand!
I love a great lightweight hammock, and a good water filter is always necessary for trips to the backcountry. I had a great one by MSR, but now I am looking for a replacement.
I love having a good sturdy water bottle that I can take anywhere. I can’t live without water on me at all time. Hydration packs are also great.
Congrats! A good backback is always a must.
A hammock for camping would be pretty sweet. Congrats on the 10k!
I’ve just started hiking I’d love to win so I can I have th e essentials.
I love my yeti water bottle to keep hydrated!
Our familys favorite piece is our hammock!!!!
My favorite piece of gear has to be my Snow Peak Lite Max stove. I love how lightweight it is, yet how powerful it can be!
My favorite? Anything I JUST bought. Still new, haven’t been disappointed by it yet. Or lost it yet.
I really like the shoes…
I’m just a big old pregnant lady right now, my favorite summer gear that I have is water bottles and sandals for swollen feet, HAHAHA.
My favorite pieces of outdoor gear are my mountain bike and backpacks (Lowe Alpine & Gregory) but I would love some solar gear!
love having water flasks around as it keeps the water a lot cooler
My favorite piece of adventure gear is my camera.
Good hiking boots, good hiking socks and a great backpack are essential, too!
Wintertime – It’s snowshoes!
Love this!!
a packed backpack
