Hi! We are the Thais.
Yay! You found Cantthaiusdown, our family’s RV travel and adventure blog! This is our wanderlog, filled with stories of open-road adventures, trip routes, RV travel tips, and all the memorable moments that come with life on the road (or around the camp fire).
This blog officially launched in February of 2025. It has been a long time coming! We are excited to document our RV traveling adventures from 2020 and future adventures.
What started as a simple RV rental sparked a passion for exploration, getting outside, family bonding, leading us to embrace the joys—and challenges—of RV life. Join us as we share our travel log, tips, and mishaps, inspiring your own family adventures and wanderlust!
When we are not on the road in our home on wheels, our life is centered around the kid’s school, activities, friends, family, work and play, in Austin, TX. Through all of life’s adventures, we are a family who cherishes the journey as much as the destinations.
After completing a 58-night Summer RV Trip in 2024, what do you think will be in store for us in 2025?
Join our RVing journey and find out!
🛻 Rolling on, because we can’t be Thai’d down!
