She says of her family’s trailer,

I wanted a home on wheels, where we will journey and see the country, to feel like home. I wanted it to be comfortable and inspiring, to evoke imagination, adventure, and creativity. I wanted it to feel wild and free.

The family’s  vintage Airstream decked out with string lights.

Sarah said that the Airstream was ‘dark’ inside when she first got it. She started the renovation by painting everything white right off the bat.

Sarah uses the sitting area as a dining room now.

Sarah bought all the drapes and had them cut to fit the Airstream’s wrap-around windows.

She installed an octagonal backsplash and butcher block counters in the kitchen area. The mirror on the wall adds even more light to the room.
