Ruhls of the Road

Our Life on the Road

In 2018 we packed our bags and traveled as a couple in our self converted campervan, Winnie. Since then life has taken a few twists and turns. We added our baby girl, Indie, to our family in 2021 and we are determined to show that travel doesn’t have to stop when you have a baby. Now we travel the world as a family of three!

Why Travel?

Travel is without a doubt one of the most mind-opening and downright fun things we can do. Learn new cultures, experience new things, see incredible sites, and explore the world. Adventure awaits, let’s go!

Why Travel With A Baby?

There are so many reasons to travel with your baby but our biggest reason is that time is precious. We don’t want to save special memories for when she is older. Instead we want to start making them now!

Additionally, it challenges us and gets us out of our comfort zone. It teaches the whole family adaptability and flexibility while we experience new things together.

Traveling with your baby truly is a special thing and sharing our passion with her has made us want to travel more than ever before.

How We Travel

We got married in 2017, and spent the following year living in a Downtown Chicago studio apartment with our chihuahua, Kobe. 

We decided to take a risk.

In 2018 we sold almost everything we owned, bought a Volkswagen Eurovan, and hit the open road.

We spent a whole year exploring National Parks all across the United States and Canada, experiencing each day and living our lives in the present moment.

In 2020 we lived the van life all across New Zealand before COVID-19 forced us to come home.

Now we list our house on Airbnb and travel with our baby while others enjoy our home.

Take a Hike

Hiking is the best way to get out and experience nature. It is fun, free, and full of exercise and adventure.
