About Pattie Gilbert

Hello Fellow travel bugs, My name is Pattie, #thevanlord. I was born and raised in Bangkok, Thailand. In 2006, I moved to Pacifica, CA with 2 suitcases. Travel is my passion. I had an opportunity to travel extensively in Asia, Europe, North America and my one of forever favorite places in the World, The islands of Hawaii. But Wait !! France is one of the top 5 particularly, South of France and Paris. I have seen many parts of the world. I can proudly say I am so grateful to be able to call "California" home. 3 years ago, I moved to Santa Cruz Mountains, CA. That was when my life changed forever. Now, I live in gorgeous Redwoods and right under the old Redwood Trees. The most famous surfing town in the world, Santa Cruz, California is within 15 minute ride. How could life get any better? Well Duh !!, owning a CAMPER VAN. With my #GOAL_DIGGER THE VAN and #Joythevan I could be sleeping on the edge on the Pacific coastline at any time. Anywhere I can park now is my backyard. I love to listen to the waves, watch gnarly sunset and catch a glimpse of those shooting stars. I invite you to experience these amazing places with me. Let's hit the road.
