Hi Everybody!
Kit Whistler of Idle Theory Bus here. My partner JR and I are so excited to team up with Vanlife Diaries for a kid and dog-friendly vanlife gathering in beautiful Taos, New Mexico! We're combining our passions to create an incredible camp-out filled with community and tiny living and general all-around fun.
About the Gathering
This gathering will be a two-night campout on the property of the gorgeous Hotel Luna Mystica in Taos, New Mexico. Camping will be next door to the Taos Mesa Brewing Mothership , and tucked into a sage mesa at the base the Sangre de Cristo Mountains. Together, we’ll gather for a weekend outdoors sharing music and food, stories and tiny home tours.
About Us, your Hosts
JR and I have been traveling the backroads of the U.S. since 2012, practicing what we call our “Idle Theory,” or time spent doing nothing. In the past 7 years, we have watched the vanlife movement spread from a small corner of the underground to a wider uprising of curious beings searching for an alternative to the insanity of the modern world. We’re excited to host this event and bring together deep thoughts and true community in the high mesas of Taos.
