While getting lunch yesterday I saw an adorable Airstream trailer parked at a gas station. I pondered what adventures lie ahead for this little gem...a cross country trip, a wilderness adventure, or a trip to visit the in-laws? Feeling inspired, I set out to find my own dreamy Airstream via Google and flickr. Plus, I found interior Airstream spaces, which were both modern and efficient. Makes me happy to see these compact and vintage homes-on-wheels, especially with all the McMansions out there.
Wouldn't it be great to own one and go on a road trip?! And how about that car in the last photo - so cute!

I crave an airstream.
To continuously travel the open road in an airstream is my DREAM!!! Oh the places I'd go......
I'm right there with ya!
When we first moved to our home, I was taking a walk in our new neighborhood through the alleys and back roads. I was so delighted to come across a vintage airstream in perfect condition!! I see the people coming home in it every once in a while. I'd love to go on a non-agenda road trip in that thing :)
FABulous. I'm Kirtsy-ing now!
Some day....
these sure put our RV to Round Top to shame!!
Pure traveling class. Love it. Great post Pleasie.
Day dreaming about a road trip in an Airstream makes me smile and feel good. Oh - someday.
Have you seen this one from DWR? Just a completely affordable 50K!
Jude - ahhh yes! I have seen it and totally forgot (until now - thanks!). Love it!
airstreams have a special place in my heart...like house boats and tree houses.
have you ever heard about the shady dell in bisbee arizona? it's hotel-like accommodations but in airstreams. it's kitsch and cute :)
I have not heard of that particular place, but I saw in my airstream research of some hotels starting to do that. Sounds fun!
The hobo life would be so stylish :)
LOVE IT!!!! I'm especially fond of the interiors...who'd have thought?!?!
love this post! and airstreams. my hubby and i are thinking about finding an old, run down model and fixing it up. how fun!
How can 0 square feet be so much chicer than my whole apartment?! I love these Airstreams. Makes me want to sell everything I own and wander around the USA for a while. :)
I do love the Airstreams! What a fun post. -Julia
I want an Airstream so badly....
I want one!! To bad they cant be electric :)
What a great roundup! These photos are so fun!!
I have dreamed of having my own adorable Airstream for years! And one day I will have one, and decorate her up so cute. We will hit the open road and see every quirky roadside attraction, and eat at every old dinner along the way! Bliss!
Oh my!
These are SO cute! Almost makes me want to take a road trip... only I'm not a good car traveler... UGH :(
i think the car in the last pic is a Nash Rambler. So darn cute.
You've posted my dream car...a Nash Metropolitan! Lovely, lovely post!
A friend of mine has a vintage Airstream that is all tricked out and funkily gorgeous. I covet that little silver bullet. Thanks for the fun inspiration!
I defy anyone, correction...ANYONE, to not feel just a bit happier after scrolling down this post! I gasped when I saw the first pic and only smiled more and more! LOVE those Airstreams! Thanks for the happiness jolt :)
I've always wanted an Airstream. What a way to travel.
These photos make me want to hop in the car with an Airstream in tow and hit the road. Love!
I was doing an airstream search and found your post. Just had to tell you that I live full-time in a more than 30 year old airstream. Yep. I'm one of those people who said "f... it" and hit the road. I'm not retired. I do still work (or am recently back at it) and highly recommend this lifestyle.
Thanks for the post and the delicious photos.
