Quin from @everchanginghorizon joins me to talk about his evolution of life on the road. From a van that could barely make it down the road to a beautiful Sprinter van (with many in-between), seeing the world is what kept him going. He evolved as a photographer, progressed as a storyteller, and grew the attention of a large audience along the way to follow his adventures.

Christian is a wonderful friend of mine who is working full-time at REI while building out his second budget-friendly van. He's been on the road for over a year now while working a stationary job proving that remote income and van life don't have to go hand-in-hand right away. Christian is building is photography portfolio to become remote down the line but brings in money in the meantime with a more location dependent position.
