Eris was living in New York City and enjoyed her job and lifestyle, but when COVID hit, she lost her job, and she had to move back home to Colorado. It was there that she started camping again and getting back to nature, and the entire process started to heal her of a lot of stress she’d been carrying during her city life.
A friend recommended she jump into van life, and while she hesitated at first, Eris eventually purchased a van and built it out and has been on the road now for 7 months. Her van is awesome, with tons of basket storage for clothes and food!
She loves cooking, so she has an oven to bake in and oodles of spice storage. Enjoy her Tiny Home Tours interview below.
