We Are Type1Detour

We are Chris and Amanda!

We are a fulltime RV travel family of 4. Chris and our oldest daughter both live with Type 1 Diabetes. We are documenting our journey to encourage others to get out and live the life they love, despite any of life’s obstacles! We encourage everyone to go Create Your Own Detour

We decided to stop living for LATER and start living for NOW!

We moved into our 2022 Grand Design Solitude 3950BH-R on July 13, 2021. We have been living full-time in our RV since then exploring the country one detour at a time.

Working with Chris and Amanda Stocker (@Type1Detour) was awesome! They were super communicative and responsive, making everything so easy. Chris and Amanda were both professional and friendly, and they delivered fantastic assets for us. We highly recommend them for any project – they’re amazing to work with!
