Episode Guest

Keith Life and Wiwi are avid travelers. They currently take extended trips in their 4x4 camper van and also travel abroad to Mexico, Asia and Europe. They have recently built a 3,000 sqft metal barn to use as a workshop and to store their vehicles and belongings as they prepare to go full time on the road. The new barn is located on their small ranch located in the wine country of Northern California. They have a zest for life and search for remote places that most travelers don't go. They have a youtube channel, "Keith and Wi Adventures" where they cover most of their travels.

The decision to spend the money to build a barn was a difficult one to make and the process took over one year to complete. They would like to share some of the decisions needed for determining the type of barn to build, the location where to place the building, some engineering requirements for the grading, foundation and erection of the building and some do's and don'ts to consider in your process of building a new barn.
