I Live in an RV Year-Round-What
It’s Really Like
|
|
You don’t have to wait until you retire to
“live the dream.” This 20-something
couple is already doing it…
My husband Wes and
our two dogs have spent several years living in an RV—calling a 24-foot
Winnebago home and driving it all around the United States. More recently, we
transitioned to an even smaller van-type RV (the 38-foot Allegro Bus, shown
above), where we plan to live during much of the hurricane season, then spend
the rest of the time living on a sailboat.

Strategic
Relocation
Would you be better off in a different house,
community, city or state?
One of the most frequent questions we get from people
working to become more resilient is: Is
there a better place I should move to?
Answering this question isn’t
simple.
First you need to to determine what
selection criteria are important to your decision-making and prioritize them
according to your specific personal requirements and goals. Then you need a
region-by-region evaluation that enables you to identify potential “good fit”
options.
This process can be overwhelming
for most folks starting from scratch. Which is why turning to a time-tested
guide to this process can be a tremendously valuable resource.
There aren’t that many out there. The best one we know
of that’s still in print is Strategic Relocation by Joel Skousen.
This 350-page encyclopedic work
specifies the key metrics to focus on in the relocation process and evaluates
and scores the major regions of North America on each.
Yours for a
Socialist-Free America!

I keep thinking about selling my home & becoming an RV 'road pirate'...even though I'm now old enough & have enough money, I've not worked up the cajones to do it yet.
Great variety of freebies-thanks. Would love to someday take off in an RV and see America [there's so much to see in this great land].
Very useful-of course, we like FREE [& we're not socialists!]
