We had no plans to do a cross country trip when we first bought Stan. Our first test of our new van life was an overnight stay in Eastern Washington. We were confident he could handle most any distance without problems, so we started to plan this adventure. I wouldn't say we weren't ready for a trip of this magnitude, but wow, did we learn alot about two people living closely in a camper van. 4100 miles later and 14 states later we arrived in Surf City, North Carolina!
