Today we have the pleasure of talking with Alyssa Padgett. Alyssa is a co founder of the RV Entrepreneur community and  has just published her second book: RVing Across America: A Quest to Visit All 50 States. Back in 2014 when she and Heath got married Alyssa convinced Heath to take her to all 50 states for their honeymoon. Somehow he go her into doing it all in an RV.

 While traveling, Alyssa directed and produced Hourly America, their documentary film about their 50-state honeymoon, and Heath’s working an hourly job in each state that was featured on CBS, CNN, Fox, People, Yahoo, Huffington Post, and more. After visiting all 50 states in  that year, Alyssa fell even more in love with travel and spent the following years RVing all over the world. Today Alyssa and her family still travel as much as they can and will actually be enjoying Italy when the book and this podcast release.

In this episode Alyssa and I talk about:

How this book is the memoir version of the documentary and why she felt the desire to share that year’s experiences with the world

How it feels to be the pioneers with a lifestyle that has now gained so much traction and popularity

Why Alyssa took this year of experiences and decided to write a book instead of publishing blog posts

The process of writing a book that was actually written twice and overall took almost 8 years to complete
