brick wall

Hi! I’m Kara Smalls

I am a huge fan of cookies with milk and afternoon naps.

I am currently employed by a nonprofit with global reach in the affordable housing sphere. I hope to retire in a few years and travel around North America in a Casita Travel Trailer.

Why is the site named “Wee Smial”? Well, I’m a lifelong Tolkien fan and when I saw my first Casita molded fiberglass RV I knew that I had found my own personal Hobbit hole, also know as a “Smial”. Cozy, warm, inviting, comforting…my Wee Smial is everything I’ve ever wanted in travel accommodations.

I’ve married, raised children, divorced, remarried, bought and sold houses and built a house.

I don’t have time for drama and I actively avoid it.
