~ ABOUT US ~

Hi! We’re Sam and Mimi—Boston-bred, Vermont-based husband and wife and longtime van-life lovers. We custom ordered this Sprinter Diesel 4×4 from the Mercedes factory at the end of 2020 and had it drop-shipped directly to our incredibly talented upfitters, Dan and Kristina of Roam Overland Vehicles, who brought our whole vision to life. We picked it up in spring 2022 and have loved every minute of owning it.

This van, lovingly named Pebbles, has been such a special part of our lives. We built it to be both beautiful and functional, with all the thoughtful details we wanted for life on the road, and have taken exceptional care of it along the way.

After welcoming our first baby last year, we’ve made the bittersweet decision to pass Pebbles along to its next owner. We’d love to see it go to someone who will enjoy it as much as we have and keep it out where it belongs—on the road and in the wild. Please don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions or if you’d like more information!
