Hear from Real RVers
At some point in my life, I asked a bunch of people what they would do if they had a million dollars and nine out of ten people say that they would travel. It's kind of like a dream come true, being able to check out these amazing places.
Inspiration is boundless except for the boundaries that we place ourselves. The RV has helped me practice all of these lessons and it has reminded me that I don’t always have to go “do.” Sometimes the adventure is to go “be.”
What I think is really dope is that we can hop in our RV and be off the grid in an hour and a half. No emails coming through, no text messages, it’s so relaxing. The city and the state of the world can be very overwhelming and being able to escape to complete solitude and nature just an hour and a half from home is extremely beneficial to my mental health.
One of the things I love the most about having an RV is that you have the experience of camping but you have all the comforts of being at home.
When a sport becomes your life and your passion, it becomes who you are in a lot of ways.
I love the freedom that an RV gives me as a single female traveler because I’m able to go wherever I want, whenever I want. No permission needed.
Climbing mountains, being in the cold, being in the hot, these things that are challenges and are uncomfortable, can be offset largely by having a nice kitchen to cook in and a nice bed to come back to.
I grew up camping in various different recreation vehicles my entire life with my entire family. I got to try and catch fish with my bare hands and sleep with the wind blowing through the redwood. It was just magic.
We get home by 5 or 6 on a Friday, get in the camper by 7, have a nice full day of adventuring, and make it back to the city by Saturday night.
