Thanks for watching!

This lady has more common sense than 99% of the population, good for her, I’m sure she’ll be fine while having lots of fun.

[@ftkinsella]

She was, like all of us indoctrinated into the system but she was brave enough to get out because lots of us don’t fit into their system. Great video Bob. Cheers!!!

[@riogrande5761]

To be fair, van-life wasn't really a thing back when I was "indoctrinated into the system". I've only really become aware if it in the last several years and only due to KZbin.

[@leanbean8376]

Even though this vid is 5yrs. pass, I still enjoyed every bit of it! Kudos to Miss Becky, being such a strong, wise young lady, & taking on a challenge of living a solo female traveler lifestyle!

[@SoulfulVeg]

Nice to see someone who hasn't stylized their camper too much. The fact that she accepted a little 70s style and just concentrated on living her life and not spending months personizing it to her taste makes it more attainable to the average person.

[@StukaSteven]

I honestly prefer the 70s style and I'm only 19

[@barbarabrunson8529]

Becky seems like a very nice down to earth person so it makes me a little sad that she is pretty much alone all of the time, but if she is happy that way then it's great. She seems like she would make a great friend though. The Casita is VERY nice! She has room for everything she needs and then some. Thanks for having Becky in this video and hope to see her again someday! ☀ 🌵🌵🌵🌵🌵🌵🌵🌵🌵🌵🌵🌵🌵 🚙......🚙......🚙......🚙......🚙......🚙

[@barbarabrunson8529]

@Penny Harris Thank you so much for the info Penny. I hadn't even caught her channel name while watching. Do you know the name of her blog? I wonder what made her want to go smaller? Did she start to feel like the Casita wasn't for her anymore? Thanks again Penny and hope to "see"' you on here again sometime! 🙂

[@ginaperry2599]

Maybe she's an introvert? Introverts (like myself) prefer being alone! Marriage was just more baggage for me. 🤷

[@TheGrasspond]

She is an absolute sweetheart

[@carlavv5302]

"Security cameras keep other people honest" that is sad but it's true. We should be honest no matter what or who is looking.

[@SindyJ37]

You're absolutely right and it is sad that people are willing to be bad if there's no accountability

[@jackparsons6575]

That's called having integrity

[@aprilasbahr]

Thumbs up Bob. You make EVERYONE so comfortable and at ease. I hope to meet you one day. Awesome young lady, with a head on her shoulders, very intelligent.

[@deliadee7009]

I like her approach ... she uses common sense and going with her gut on safety .... great thinking ...

This has been one of my favorite interviews with plenty of information, please do an update.

[@davidx4120]

Loved hers. This is how you do it. I would like to do this one day. It's having a cat & the toilet situation.

[@Tinamar65]

Bob, you get to know the nicest people! Thanks for sharing Becky!

[@kathyhurrle2966]

[@ebonyfaith8064]

What a sweetheart Becky is! Her positivity is just amazing. Love her. So knowledgeable not just about solo camping, but about life in general. This video made me feel good. Thank you Bob!

[@barbarabrunson8529]

Ebony I agree with you 100% girl

[@1lovmydog]

My husband just bought me a Castia Camper and the layout is just like yours. I am in the process of redecorating and I am so excited about it. The interview was very inspiring thank you for doing it. Bonny

[@membear]

That's a great little set up. Bathroom, kitchen, dining room and bedroom.

[@dlcasey4u]

I noticed some people were commenting about how to launder your clothes and not liking to go to the laundry mat. A 5 gallon bucket and a lid with a small hole in the center of the lid. A clean toilet plunger with 3 to 5 small holes around the top of the rubber part. Add water and small amount of Dr. Bronner's soap and dirty clothes. Start plunging. Rinse and repeat. Hang to dry. Well la, clean clothes. There is also the Wonderwash Non-electric Portable Compact Mini Washing Machine sold on Amazon or eBay. I find most things are actually cheaper on eBay.

[@juzagirlntheroom2692]

I still live in my apartment, but it's $6 to do a load of laundry that's way tiny. So, that's the method I use for my laundry. Works great.. Seems to be easier on my garments.

[@gailtrotman5256]

There's a contraption you can buy for laundry that is a little larger than an electric power bar (the one I saw ran on electricity, about 18" x 5" in baby blue). It sits in a bucket and gyrates to wash in soap. Dump out and rinse x 2. Hang to dry.

[@deniseryals7307]

I love her camper! She is a smart lady, good for her..Go Girl!

[@RhodaStone]

The ladies are so gracious with the tours

[@McRocket]

Bob asks, imo, good questions and let's the interviewee talk. She seems very normal and relaxed - I mean that as a compliment. Nice looking as well.

[@CheapRVliving]

Thanks, I appreciate it.

I'm retired and would have considered doing this but because I still have a minor at home and taking care of my mother with dementia I am not able to. Working at the national parks is a great idea for extra money. Thank you for sharing your story with us Becky.

[@TomJones0065]

Shes got it together, shes adorable! She knows what she wants and goes for it! Great Video! Best of Luck to her with her travels!

[@TheRealJerseyJoe]

Wow Bob, this video was great and Becky is awesome and very knowledgeable. Really enjoyed this !

Becky was cool, bob. Thanks for sharing her story with us!

[@Sweetwildflower]

❤the the video and her home. What a sweet soul. In my experience...lots if windows equals lots of energy loss. She's younger however if your older, please consider less windows. Yes. It's a sacrifice but when its 110° or -14°...you will be thankful. Thanks Bob for keeping this older interviews uploaded. Thank you also for your endless work with this community ❤🌸👍

[@glendachilders]

She kept it comfortable and simple

[@christihalliday5370]

I'm a single mom with a 25 year old daughter. I always tell her BE AWARE. That's the single best way to stay safe, know what your surroundings are!! I did alot of travel alone as a professional dog handler for past 30 years..travel and camping in my van was something I did alot of.

[@adjieadjah]

Is the professional dog handler similar with dog whisperer...?

[@puyihsieh127]

There's a wonderful feeling of excitement I always get when I'm traveling and hit the road. Waking up early sipping on a good cup of coffee and occasionally meeting other Nomads and connecting with others. I'm looking forward to doing that again someday.

[@larkhughes9740]

She's no frills and loads of savvy! Love the casita❤.

[@lindahouston9331]

[@steveneylon644]

Very organized and pragmatic approach to her RV living. Probably, one of the more impressive interviews I've seen. Hope she remains happy, healthy, and safe in her continuing journey on the road.

[@desiree8687]

It's great that you remind the young people to not neglect retirement funding!

All these youngsters wanting to live off the grid...what will they do if they become disabled and never funded the SS $pool live off of society... ever hear the word "no" .. my ex hubby has 4 of the 14 impairments for disability. He paid into the $SS fool for 40 years and they have denied him his own $money 3 times in 10 years.... this is his 4th application and hes been waiting since Aug 12th without an answer about to lose his home & everything else....

I watch so many of your videos Bob and I love them all but I think this is one of my absolute favorites! Maybe because I can really relate to Becky agewise and personality-wise. Thank you for always showing such a wide variety of people, personalities and ages in your videos. I hope to meet you on the road one day!

[@zantigar]

Becky is perfectly enchanting and thoughtful. Love the simplicity, cleanliness, and relaxed quality of Becky's approach to her set-up and life. This is a particularly engaging an inspiring video. Thanks for creating and posting it!!!

[@jeffcorbin9967]

Really like that she said saved her money and bought trailer and truck with no debt. Also think it is great that she is following her dreams.

[@josephharrison3639]

Good video Bob, Becky”s home, and life style, makes more seance and excitement. I did spend 6 months living in a 20’ trailer. This was on Cape Cod. I live and work on the Cape so I was not on vacation. My dog and I loved every day we lived in that trailer !! Thanks bob and Becky I’am all fired up to get moving !!

[@tiggasmum]

How lovely, the life obviously suits Becky , she is radiant :) great video ....

[@justinevirtue1755]

Thanks Bob! Sometimes I think it's all a crazy dream but your videos help me stay motivated. Heck, I'm over half way there. Paid for Econoline that is in great shape and my Mr. Buddy heater just arrived this week. Analysis paralysis gets me a lot. But it's important to also remember if it doesn't feel right to do, sometimes better timing works out. It's difficult to tell the difference but if not inspired to do something that's nagging me, often it works out better because things fall into place later on with a much better outcome. Goes into the philosophy section for... later. :) So far so good.

[@Carrotless_]

Are you living your dream yet?

[@JohnSmith-yn8pl]

Love Becky's set-up also. It is very simple and clean! She's so articulate, too - a pleasure watching this interview!

Can we have an update on how she's currently doing. It would be nice to hear her views after so many years.

[@theeyesehaveit]

I agree. I tried her website as announced here..but it doesn’t load. Seems no longer viable.

[@Eraflo]

agreed

[@Dutch_Gonneke]

Yes I would like to know how she is doing in 2024.

[@strunch]

She is off the road and incommunicado. Don't know why. I think she is a bit of an introvert. I don't understand why the website wasn't left up, a lot of good posts there.

[@richarde1355]

Way to go, Becky! I just bought a 2016 Casita and am so excited to adventure with it. I don't have a microwave, and I'm torn between getting one of them or, in lieu, possibly a small toaster oven.

Another very interesting video! Thank you Bob for showing us Becky's Casita. How different it is to hear from someone in their late 20's/early 30's-her perspective was really unique and different.

[@DOGakaDefenderOfGems]

Wow...another great video Bob...Thank you to you, and to Becky, for some really great information. Solar suitcases, job tips, and Becky's e-book sounds like a great read. I will be finding it shortly. The safety tips were soooo common sense, but its always great to hear the same things from another woman...TRUST YOUR GUT!...if it doesn't feel right...MOVE ON! I can not wait to get started on my journey. It will be a little longer planning for me as I have decided to take my grand daughters out of the traditional school system for a year and travel with them. Watch for our "Girls on the Go" youtube video's...LOL...I was a little saddened by the thought of losing my dream of traveling full time when the 3 girls first came into my care...but as I got thinking about it more and more and doing more research about families that travel full time, I realized that I didn't have to give up my dream...I just had to modify it a bit. And I honestly think now that having the girls will give me such a fabulous experience. I will see things now that I may have otherwise skipped over. Home schooling them will take us to places that I never thought of. Donkey rides down the canyon, and many other experiences that will fill their home schooling experience with awe from all their friends left at home here...LOL...Your channel has been such a fabulous resource for me and I cant thank you enough for some really great video's. Looking forward to many more...Much thanks!

[@suzannecranford6819]

Your Casita and Dakota are both wonderful!!! I'm so happy you're living in the way that works best for you! So many people ignore that "little voice" inside and miss what would make them happiest. Most of the time outside influences have absolutely no idea what they're talking about when it comes to advice about someone else's lifestyle. They mean well though. Anyway, this is great! Thanks for the tour. Happy trails! 💗
