We are Philip and Tessa Miller, and we’re endlessly curious and fascinated by this big, charming country. Hitchhike along with us as we RV around with our pup, Finn, in search of fun!
Our Adventures Meet The Millers
Welcome to the Charming Adventures of the Millers!
Being endlessly curious, we find charming delights everywhere we go in our U.S. travels. Our "sticks-n-bricks" home is in Scottsdale, Arizona, but we are usually on the road for some combination of six out of every twelve months. We love the ease of travel, comforts of home, and the amazing people, places and things we see along the way while traveling in our Fleetwood Southwind 34C RV, "Elsie." We are always planning future itineraries, and hope our past travels give travel inspiration for your own adventures!

If you know anything about the Millers, it’s that we are obsessed with hot springs! A hot spring is “the emergence of geothermally heated groundwater up to the surface,” but the real...
