For Thomas and Caitlin Haug, the road isn’t just a path to new destinations—it’s home. Along with their daughters, Serafina and Sorley, and their beloved dog, Cipriani, the Haugs have embraced full-time RV living in their 2024 Jayco Eagle Travel Trailer 312BHOK. What started as a solution to a long and exhausting co-parenting commute has evolved into a lifestyle filled with adventure, simplicity, and unforgettable memories.
A Lifestyle Born from Necessity and a Love for Adventure
Before transitioning to full-time RV living, the Haugs spent three years making a demanding 66-mile journey—sometimes up to eight times a week—to co-parent their daughters. The travel time, often ranging from one to two and a half hours each way, was taxing. Relying on restaurants, libraries, and the homes of friends and family to create meaningful experiences for their girls was exhausting.
While they once lived in a traditional home filled with “things,” their decision to move into an RV wasn’t about sacrificing comfort—it was about prioritizing experiences over possessions. Though they still have a family vacation home in South Florida and a storage unit, their RV has become their true home, offering both stability and the freedom to travel.
