After 25 years in the City of Angels, we sold our house and hit the road to find a new hometown. We break down each city and every restaurant, Air BnB and tourist trap we encounter along the way. We're not RV people, but we've got over 50 towns and 50,000 miles under our belt so it's only a matter of time until we're your new neighbors! #emptynest #fulltank read less
