Hi there! 

 

I’m Michelle, the new owner of Cypress Overland, and an adventurer at heart.

Originally from Switzerland, I moved to the United States in 2024 with my family to begin a new chapter in beautiful Utah. A few years earlier, in 2021–2022, we took a bold leap and traveled around the world. That journey opened my eyes in ways I never expected and confirmed how deeply I love exploring, discovering new places, and living life on the road.

Adventure has always been a natural part of who I am. I feel most alive when I’m driving through the desert, hiking remote trails, sleeping under the stars, or stepping into a landscape I’ve never seen before. Overlanding became the perfect expression of that passion.

When I arrived in Utah, I immediately fell in love with the American West. The red rock canyons, open desert roads, wild forests, high mountains, and that incredible feeling of freedom all resonated with me. So when the opportunity arose to take over Cypress Overland, it instantly felt right. It was the ideal way to blend my love for travel, nature, and meaningful experiences.

Cypress Overland is more than a rental service to me. It’s an invitation to disconnect, explore, and experience the West in the most authentic way possible. Picture waking up in a rooftop tent in Moab, watching the first light touch the sandstone towers of Monument Valley, driving peaceful backroads in Wyoming, cooking dinner under an Arizona sunset, or camping beside a quiet river far from everything. That sense of freedom is what I want to share with you.

I can’t wait to meet you, hand you the keys, and help you create an unforgettable road trip filled with wonder, serenity, and adventure.

Adventure is calling, and I’m here to help you answer it.
