Once you get out on the road in your RV, no matter how large and luxurious it may be, you’re going to need some equipment that probably doesn’t come with that big bus. A great and wonderful part of living I an RV โ for most travelers at least โ is outdoor living. Oh sure, at home you may have had an occasional barbeque in the backyard with a few friends over for hamburgers and beer, but when we talk…
One of our first mistakes with RV living costs – and it was a pretty big one at that – was a budget. Well, I should say, lack of a budget. We had just sold our house and since we had built up plenty of equity over the years, we did all right with our RV living costs despite the fact that the house might have brought a lot more just before the big bust a few years ago. With…
Hi, so Debbie and I started this blog just before we sold our house and made the bold move. We now live in our thirty-five foot Winnebago Adventurer. It’s not the most luxurious or expensive RV on the market, but it’s very nice and suits us perfectly. Being what most people would probably call a blue-collar worker (sheet metal), I’d feel out of place in one of those two-story million dollar luxury homes. Since we’ve got out and begun to…
Happy new year! Wow, since we got our snazzy Winnebago Adventurer and sold the house, we’ve really had some fun. Well, not all of it was fun. We got caught in a Nevada rainstorm complete with a flash flood and rabbits jumping all around the highway. Thanks to trying not to run over any rabbits, we got stuck in the mud at the side of the road. Luckily for us, a big tow truck happened along half an hour later…

Some of you readers (= friends ๐ have asked about camping sites and places to park an RV, so we thought we should try to tell you what we know…so far. Parking lots in supermarkets, schools, churches, etc. don’t really make good choices to park rv. While it’s true that some churches give written permission so if the police or anyone bothers you, you can whip out your permit. But remember,…
I’m William (aka Bill). My wife Deborah and I have a motorhome. We’ve really got into the RV lifestyle and we might just throw our bonnets over the windmill as they say in France, and head out. After all, retirement for both of us is just around the corner. Our three kids are all grown, married with lives of their own. Why should we spend our retirement in a tract home with a dog next door who somehow manages to…
A Perfect Retirement This is one of the best (traveling man) videos on the subject (retirement and RV), very inspiring. And so right – we easily put things in the way to stop us traveling. This guy is a retired bachelor in his 70s, although he looks to be about 50 years of age. He lives traveling in a self-sufficient motorhome. This is the story of his lifestyle and how he set it up. It begins with selling his home…
Working and Retirement – Traveling Full Time RV In this video, they talk a bit about retirement for full-time RV travelers. There is no right answer for this, and this is not for everyone. Most of those who travel full time live a more frugal lifestyle so setting financial goals may be worthwhile.
