Outdoor Miles Podcast | Full-Time RV Living, Digital Connection, and the OhHi App Story

What happens when you leave the sea behind and set your sights on the open road? For Alex and Jackie, it meant embracing a new kind of freedom — one shaped by wide landscapes, constant motion, and the need to stay connected with the people who matter most.

In this episode of the Outdoor Miles Podcast, we sit down with this adventurous couple to hear how they transitioned from living full-time on a sailboat to traveling the country in an RV. After years of navigating the ocean and calling their boat home, they shifted gears to explore life on land — not just changing their mode of travel, but rethinking how they wanted to live.

Alex and Jackie share what surprised them most about the switch, what each lifestyle taught them, and how they’ve adapted to the challenges of living small and moving often. They also reflect on the emotional journey behind the logistics — what it feels like to start over, what they miss from their sailing days, and how they've stayed grounded through it all.

One of the biggest lessons they’ve learned? Staying connected matters. And that insight led them to become part of the team behind OhHi — a mobile app designed to help people on the move keep in touch with loved ones.
