I started this sub to share, gather and explore new & old ideas related to the full-time RV living experience.

I started over a year ago after retiring from the business I had for over 25 year. My wife and I sold, gave away and donated most of our worthless worldly possessions, bought a lightly used RV (5th wheel) a great used pull vehicle and hit the road. So far the adventure has been 90% positive.

I would like to invite any and all people to join in, ask questions or share their experiences in this unique and growing lifestyle.

My wife and I loved tent camping. Then in 1996 we found an affordable little Toyota Dolphin motorhome. Used it so much, we quit our jobs and became 3-days-per-week part-time servers at Denny's in Spartanburg, SC. Easy work. Like OP, we gave away all of our possessions and stayed in the RV full time. Parked out behind Denny's on work days, then up to the Appalachian Mountains or over to Myrtle Beach every week for a year and a half. A wonderful life with ne downsides. With no rent or bills, we covered all of our expenses. Everybody at Denny's envied us. It was a magical time.

But then, 'the daughter' in Florida went and had a daughter of her own, so we moved down there and bought a house (sob!) and became regular folk again. Grandparents.

That is the hardest part for us, not being close to our grandkids as we used to be. We do head to our home state for the summer where we are closer however. They love to come camping with us.

Granddaughter got married last year. We're living mortgage free on five acres in the Blue Ridge Mountains I so love. Only live once!

Did van living twice with the wife. Got along great. Went from New Orleans LA to California, goofing off along the way. Spent two weeks in Yosemite (nice!) in February (ice!)

Kinda miss doing that stuff.
