Hello! We are Andrea, Jamey, and Anderson Rabold, and we are grateful to be living our lives in deep connection with all Mother Nature has to offer, and to be sharing that abundance with you.

Before moving to Maine, Andrea was a nonprofit executive director and Jamey, a stay-at-home dad and photographer. One month prior to our son, Anderson, being born in 2017, we sold our 2000 sq ft house in suburban Denver, and moved to a tiny house on wheels in a more natural setting in the foothills of Northern Colorado where we were surrounded by trees, wild plants and animals, and a river. This wild shift in our journey facilitated our movement out of a more traditional modern American life filled with separation, disconnection, and distraction, into a life that could cultivate a deep relationship with the natural world and within that, interconnectivity to the whole. While as parents of a newborn we weren’t always sure whether we were coming or going, living so closely with nature and its cycles and rhythms had a profound effect on us - like a healing balm we hadn’t known we needed. Three years later in November 2020, our souls came calling with a new adventure and a grander vision, and we knew we needed land to do it. We began our search in January 2022, and by March, we were purchasing a 30 acre forest in Midcoast Maine. The train was on the track. 

One of the most important parts of our vision was living in deeper community with others and sharing whatever we had with them, but we weren’t exactly sure what that could look like, so we spent the next year and half deciding what to build and how, and from there the seed of Nadair Maine was formed. By July 2023, we said goodbye to our lives in Colorado, moved our tiny house on wheels to our new home in Maine, and began a new relationship with our natural surroundings within the Maine forest ecosystem. For the next several months, we lived off-grid while developing the property. By March 2024, we opened our first short-term rental on Airbnb. That cabin is the Sunrise Cabin.

Today, we are deepening our commitment to our vision, and bringing the rest of Nadair Maine to life. Offering Elopements is something we feel deeply connected to. After 20 years of marriage, we know the portal you are about to walk through. What it takes to remain in deep commitment to each other as the honeymoon phase wears off and the real magic of the relationship begins - embracing the conflict born out of the friction of navigating life’s twists and turns together. Figuring out how to make mistakes, learn, grow, and laugh together even when life is hard. We have learned and are still learning what we truly meant when we said, “until death do we part” all those years ago. 

Through our years in partnership and raising a son together, we have also witnessed how few of our modern spaces have the ability to hold space for deep and intentional life transitions. Examples of this can be found throughout our American culture but very specifically within our modern wedding ceremony practices where so many of us are spending $20,000+ trying to make our day “magazine worthy”, only to discover that those dollars didn’t make it meaningful. Our deepest desire is to support people looking for a different way - one using the power of intention and ritual to connect more soulfully with themselves and others.
