Nate has a passion for adventure and the outdoors. He spends much of his free time camping, surfing and spearfishing and takes his two little girls with him on those adventures as much as possible. In the midst of all that, he loves spending time cooking and learning about all the tasty nuanced ways of cooking fish that he catches. See more of Nate and Katie in A Roadmap to Family.

What’s one piece of advice you have for RVers?

For those with older trailers, if you haven't been on a trip in a while, do a small one day overnight trip in advance of bigger trips to make sure you have everything working and have the right gear in your trailer. Sometimes it gives you a chance to dial in the details, which can be draining while you're on a longer trip.
