Get To Know Us
Hello! We’re Jim and Michelle Fisher. For nearly 25 years we lived in an amazing 3300 square foot Victorian home. We fully embraced living in the 19th Century and did many Victorian era activities from going door-to-door and singing Christmas carols (complete with tops hats and hoop skirts), to hosting a Vintage Base Ball Club playing the American Pastime with the rules and customs of the 1860’s.
Jim has an extensive background in professional photography and videography, including 10 years owning and operating a successful photography studio, plus he spent over 20 years working in the home improvement industry. Jim has also worked as a professional voice-over artist.
Michelle has a background in the sewing industry and is an accomplished seamstress and tailor. She homeschooled our two children, worked as a Library Branch Assistant for nearly 20 years, and was the director of Christian Education at our church. She loves to read, sing and has an infectious joyful personality.
In 2021, while on a two week road trip from Michigan to Arizona and back, we decided to sell our house and downsize to a travel trailer. Being empty nesters and desiring a more adventurous life, we sold our home and began to transition from traditional “sticks and bricks” living to downsizing to fit into an Airstream International Serenity 28 RBQ to travel full time across the vast and beautiful United States.
