This is the trip I built for myself first, but realized other people wanted in. Five days deep in Nishnabi/Algonquin territory, on the same lakes and trails I grew up on, guided by me (Chief Little Eagle) and shaped by Native ways my family has practiced for generations. You wake up at Miwapanee Lodge on Lake Kipawa, eat what we caught or hunted that week, head out with me each day for whatever's in season hunting, fishing, tracking, hiking, learn the herbal medicines my elders taught me, and sweat the city out of you in a real ceremony. It isn't a glamping package with a Native theme. It's the real thing, made comfortable enough that bringing your spouse or your kid doesn't end in a fight. Built around couples (2-for-1 pricing) but works just as well for parent-and-kid trips, friend groups, or anyone who needs a serious reset. What follows is everything that's included: lodging, transport, meals, gear, the adventures, the cultural pieces, and the books I'd hand you on the drive home.

A few years ago my family and I embarked on a journey to visit all 63 National Parks and as many National Monuments as possible. We LOVE the National Park Service (NPS) and their sites because they are very well maintained, clean, accessible to people with a range of abilities, they are family friendly and they have bathrooms! Here is a very condensed list of some of our favorite National Parks and Monuments (so far) as well as our favorite hikes, sites, excursions, and more! MY #1 TIP when visiting any National Park is to make a stop at the Visitors Center to talk to a Ranger about things to do in the area and gather information about trail closures, etc.

We’ve been lucky to have traveled to Santorini and Mykonos, and while I thought they were awesome, it felt like they were swarming with Americans trying to get the perfect selfie and overpriced restaurants and hotels. We did a lot of research and decided to travel to Sifnos, and it did not disappoint – everything I hoped for in a Greek island. Incredible views, wonderful people, delicious restaurants, gorgeous beaches. It was a bit of a journey to get here (fly to Santorini and 2.5 hour ferry, or fly to Milos and 45 min ferry) but we definitely hope to be back! Here are some of our faves.

My wife and I are avid RV travelers, having been to eleven states, roughly thirty national parks & monuments, and a myriad of state parks. We absolutely love traveling by RV and seeing this wonderful country of ours. Over the last eight years, we've borrowed one RV from a friend and bought two others, a bumper pull and now a 5th wheel. We've learned a lot of lessons along the way, had some close calls, and had some incredible times on our own and with friends. We've made a number of new friends along the way and have seen things I never thought I'd have the opportunity to lay my eyes on. I've put together this list based on our experiences. This is a live list, always growing with new items based on new experiences. I hope you find some things that help you on your journeys - come inside, take a look and feel free to ask me questions - I'm always happy to help!!
