Introducing Ty Arian (The Silver House)
Our Airstream is a 2014 27-foot International Signature model. We purchased from A to Z Motors in Winters, California with a superb buying experience provided by Vince Cardinale. And given a strong Welsh family roots connection on Julie’s side, we named our silver beauty with an affectionate Welsh moniker.

We save money on food as we are preparing most meals in our trailer.
Additional learning moments:
