Solo Adventures in Florida’s Wild Spaces

Join me as I explore state parks, discover hidden campgrounds, and prove you’re never too late to start your RV journey

From Car Camping to Camper Van

Follow my journey from the Escape to the open road, one honest step at a time

Current Reality

Car Camping Adventures

Exploring Florida’s incredible public lands out of my trusty Ford Escape, one campground at a time. It’s not glamorous, but it’s freedom.

Saving For

My Camper Van

A camper van of my own, with room to get up, cook, and handle the middle of the night safely, without stepping outside alone. It gets me on the road and recording adventures sooner.

Dream Goal

Full-Time RV Life

Down the road, a Class C motorhome as a mobile research lab, then full-time life on public lands. Because who says a 65-year-old can’t start fresh?

Want to help me reach the road?

The best way is to grab something you’ll actually use from the shop. You get gear you love, and I get closer to the van. Prefer to chip in directly? The van fund is open too. And every like, comment, and share helps more than you know.

Why Solo Sojourn Matters

“We believe every woman should know she can do this — and that she won’t have to do it alone.”

— Jolene MacFadden, Founder

Too many women think they can’t camp alone. Too many think they’re too old, too inexperienced, too whatever. I’m here to show you that’s not true. You can start small, learn as you go, and build the adventure life you want.

You’re Not Alone Out There

Every woman who travels alone stands on the shoulders of the women who went first. While Solo Sojourn gathers its own stories from the road, here are three voices, each verified to its original source, from women who walked out alone and wrote down what they found.

“To awaken quite alone in a strange town is one of the pleasantest sensations in the world. You are surrounded by adventure. … ” ― Freya Stark, Baghdad Sketches (1932) British-Italian explorer who traveled solo through the Middle East for six decades.

“If I can do it, so can other women.” Sarah Marquis, interview with TIME (2016) Swiss National Geographic Explorer who walked 10,000 miles alone from Siberia to Australia.

“Fear, to a great extent, is born of a story we tell ourselves” Cheryl Strayed, Wild: From Lost to Found on the Pacific Crest Trail (2012) Hiked 1,100 miles of the Pacific Crest Trail alone.
