Mer is slowly becoming a home rather than looking like a manufactured motorhouse. She's almost done, all she needs are curtains and for everything to be sorted away (organizers, shelves and bins to hold everything in as we are mobile). We were supposed to embark on this journey this Friday, September 1st. However, despite working crazy hours on Meraki everyday since I got back from Deaf Film Camp, we are not ready. We will leave on Saturday, September 2nd and head north to a RV resort near Eureka, CA. PC: Julie Rems Smario

Meraki is a greek term that defines doing something with total love, and pure soul. It is leaving a little piece of yourself in your creative work. This journey is all about me using my passion in photography and my love in being a mom to my three boys. I hope to create a documentary piece about our journey. This entire trip is a combination of bravery and insanity, but I know that it will be an experience our boys will never forget. PC: Karina Pedersen
