Sounds amazing. Do you get used to all the traveling and exhaustion from traveling? Do you feel like you're "home" at the end of the day when you get back to the bus?
Either way it sounds like you are living your dream...congrats.
Great questions and apologies for the delay, been driving. The first question is interesting because it’s something we have been discussing alot here the last 2 months.
We spend about 5 months in Florida from November to mid March or April. It provides a nice little break from traveling.
And believe me, come November we are ready to sit for a bit and not travel. The same can be said for when it’s time to leave in the Spring. We are rejuvenated and ready to go see the country. It’s a pretty good balance for us. It’s not everyone’s dream, but you are correct, it is our dream and we are very grateful and humbled by how blessed we are to do it.
We don’t own much, but we traded our stuff for time.
That said, I believe we stayed at 23 Campgrounds this year, and it does wear you down moving that much. (Setting up and tearing down).
Outside of our 5 months in Florida, They ranged from 2 nights to a month. What I believe we are going to do moving forward is try to limit our campgrounds to 6-8 a year. We enjoy spending a month in a place and then moving on. Gives you time to relax and see alot of things. I think it will provide an even better experience.
As for your last question. Yes, the Bus feels like home. Credit my wife for doing an amazing job making it feel that way, but right now I don’t want to own another home. Maybe someday that will change, but for now we are just really enjoying this lifestyle.
One point my wife brought up, and it’s so true….
Many times you forget the shit show going on in the world while out away from most the rest of society. IMO, that’s the best part. It’s like going back in time to a simpler time.
