Our Story
|
Nomadists isn’t just about hitting the road—it’s about rewriting how you think. We’re Indy and Kitty, founders of Nomadists, and our journey began with a single trip that broke our world open. In 2016, a family vacation to Arizona’s red rock deserts showed us life could be more than cubicles and commutes. Stargazing under endless skies, we felt a spark: freedom wasn’t a place—it was a mindset. That spark led to big changes. By 2018, we’d moved to Arizona. By 2019, we were overlanding in a Sprinter van, chasing horizons and questioning everything—stability, stuff, success. What we found wasn’t just new places, but new ways to live: adaptable, resilient, present. The nomad mindset became our guide, not just for travel, but for tackling challenges, building connections, and finding purpose. Through the Nomadists Podcast, we share this journey. No polished experts here—just raw stories from wanderers like us, plus practical tips for remote work, overlanding, and living untethered. From “How to Work from Anywhere” to “Embracing Uncertainty,” our weekly episodes explore the psychology of freedom. Join us to rethink where and how you live. Our adventures also birthed Outrnr, a platform for outdoor enthusiasts who want their stay to launch their play. Tired of bookings that left us miles from trails, we built Outrnr to connect nomads to basecamps where adventure starts at the doorstep—think cabins by hiking paths, campsites for kayaking, or lodges near climbing crags. Every spot is verified by real adventurers, with details like gear storage and trail tips. Find your next launchpad at outrnr.com—Your stay. Your adventure. Your way. Nomadists is about more than moving—it’s about mental mobility. With nomads in our community, we’re challenging fixed thinking and building a tribe of modern explorers. Ready to break free? Take the First Step: Nomadists—Live Light. Move Boldly. Create Freely. About Indy & KittyWe used to think success was a straight line: degree, job, mortgage, repeat. Then Arizona’s vast deserts in 2016 flipped the script. Standing in that wide-open landscape, we felt untethered—a possibility we hadn’t known since childhood. Back home, our “perfect” life felt like a cage. It took two years of soul-searching and planning to move to Arizona in 2018. In 2019, we hit the road in our Sprinter van, testing a life of motion. The biggest surprise? The real journey was mental. Letting go of fixed plans taught us adaptability. Embracing impermanence built resilience. Home became our connections, not a zip code. Now, through the Nomadists Podcast and Outrnr, we’re sharing these lessons with restless souls like you. We’re diving into remote tech, planning new routes, and creating experiences that spark freedom. Our mission? To show how nomad thinking transforms not just where you live, but how you grow, connect, and thrive in an unpredictable world. Curious? Join nomads exploring the nomad mindset.

In a world obsessed with polished vanlife aesthetics—think cedar-lined interiors and Instagram-ready skylights—Indy and Kitty, the founders of Nomadists, have built something different. Their 2019 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter (144” wheelbase, high roof, 12-passenger) isn’t a showpiece. It’s a rugged, no-nonsense survival pod designed to carry their family of nine—seven kids, a pitbull, and themselves—across Arizona’s dusty trails, into urban stealth camps, and anywhere else their untethered life...
Imagine planning your work around sunsets, not deadlines. Picture a life where your energy flows with the seasons—spring’s spark, summer’s hustle, fall’s reflection, winter’s rest. For digital nomads, this isn’t a fantasy; it’s seasonal living, a powerful way to align your travels, work, and family with nature’s rhythm. Indy and Kitty, founders of Nomadists, discovered this while roaming with their seven kids in a 2019 Sprinter van. Their journey from burnout to balance offers a blueprint for...
