Trailer Trash, v.1
Trailer Trash, v.1

I'm waiting for my buddy Jake to show up and record some music, so I'm going to tell you about something.

For a while I've been wanting to restore and eventually live in an old Airstream trailer. The most common reaction I get whenever telling someone about this long-held dream of mine is "Eww. Trailers are so trashy."

Then I have to explain that it's going to be less like something you'd see at the fair and more like something you'd see in, well, one of those hipster-friendly modern design magazines.

And the more time I spend scouring the internet for resources and inspiration for such an undertaking, I find a glut of the former and depressing void of the latter. So, being the do-it-yourself kind of guy that I am, I decided that I'm going to start posting more things related to Airstream renovation and thrifty, taste-conscious, nomadic lifestyles.

I mean, I'm not doing it right now or anything (Jake just got here), but you should definitely know it's coming. Here are some more pics I got from Apartment Therapy:

I've always wanted to do that too! A friend of mine, Liz if names are important, and I used to talk about it but then she got married…boo.

don't ask why, but we care what you think.

so, uh, what do you think?
This is a huge work in progress. I mean, I've got the best intentions for this site, but I've also got 500 million other projects, too.....and a life...so it's slow going.
