A good mattress is everything! Thank you for this recommendation. 😉

[@aprilkeener3345]

I'm a book lover and just can't get into the e-readers. When we traveled we sought out the Little Free Library in the area. We could drop the books off we were done reading and grab one or two more books for the next leg of our adventure. It kept the books down to a reasonable amount.

[@GratefulGlamper]

Good solution

[@Elizabeth-rq1vi]

I’m with you, there’s nothing like a good physical book to curl up with…and you don’t have to charge it!

[@Jimmy_Jim_Jim_1234]

I never liked them either. Second hand book store are great as well. And they'll take the old ones as well.

[@damiandsmusicjunkie9335]

This is the only hard thing for me. I LOVE books and have a beautiful collection. It's the one thing I won't give up. If need be, they'd have to find a home with a friend for awhile.

[@sweetpea1989]

When we travel, by cruise ship, travel trailer or car, I bring books. And an e reader. E readers overheat in the hot Caribbean sun, sand scratches them and they can be stolen while you take a dip in the ocean. So a nice book in solid form works better. And, when we finish a book, we then pass it on by leaving it at the campground little library, in a hotel lobby, or at the cruise ship library. There is a purpose for all kinds of reading, but while inside your rv, I can see why you keep the clutter down by only using your electronic device.

[@lisawaterman2737]

I agree about the souvenirs. Pictures are more meaningful. We purchased a digital frame so we can download our pictures and have them cycle through. That way we don't pick our favorites, we get to see them all!

[@timothylinn]

Best transition to sponsor ever: mattress topper to RV Mattress. As for my list, it starts with pets of any kind. And you will have to pry my Perrier out of my cold dead hands. :-)

[@cruzcathie]

We have 2 throw pillows in our RV. They're not decorative, we use them. On a travel day I toss the pillows onto the bed. They don't fall off and putting them back on the couch is jusr part of setting up the RV.

[@sandyruther2745]

I only buy mattress toppers for our fold out beds in the living room and bunk room to make those beds a little more comfortable for guests.

[@raydeehunt3649]

We traveled a fair amount when our son was younger, and after donating some of those lovely souvenirs, we started getting the collectible pressed penny that you do in a machine that can be found at a number of tourist places. We liked that they were very economical (fifty cents plus the penny that is being pressed) and they took up very little space. He had an album he would keep them in. I just wish we had thought to take a Sharpie and write the date on the back. It would also be fun to put them in a jar.

[@GratefulGlamper]

That’s a fun memento - and cheap and small!

[@northroadproductionsvt]

Don’t worry, I tried that and Sharpie doesn’t work anyway. I collect pressed pennies too. Such a great way to save memories of a trip!

[@jeannenason6472]

I use the throw pillows to stuff in cabinets to keep things from moving when traveling.

[@GratefulGlamper]

Great idea

[@michelleconcannon7584]

We just installed an Acuva water filter under the sink of our Class C . Didn’t take up too much space.

[@TravelSmallLiveBig]

I love the free book trades! Some of the campgrounds we have been in have had awesome little trade libraries. I agree on the food - we tend to eat the same meals over and over (or a different version of that meal), but after living & traveling on a boat for 30 years, I do have backups of our staples.

[@kb80550]

Regarding souveniers...we buy a magnet as a memento and decorate our RV fridge with them. We try to get something unique or 3D that pleases us and reminds of the place we visited.

[@christymckinley2928]

We do key chains and connect them together.. and put a date on each one.. when we are staying put for an extended time... i hang then on a shepards hook to add as a decoration/small wind chime.. which isn't loud and could be annoying to self or others if it was an actual wind chime

[@Lugeix]

I've never cleaned a pillow. Mine are 30 years old. I'm good with them. I have food 10 years out of date that still taste great. I keep finding and buying Cherry Nut Cake MRE from 1989. There is awesome still. I know friend who tried them, and they had a reaction to them.

[@99Moonbeam]

Stuff is always a problem, food is the worst. We solved that problem by having a meal menu and only bring what is on the menu for the trip.

[@GratefulGlamper]

👏🏻

[@BrohamerT]

I love that you use the same phrase I do when talking about mattress toppers! It's a great phrase. It just says it all.

[@melissap2957]

I've never been into decorating for holidays, even got tired of doing it for Christmas, so I'll be good there! I might keep 2 couch cushions though, we do use those alot at the house. Otherwise totally agree with you on the other items. I had a Berkey water filter, but couldn't ever get it to work right, got too frustrated and eventually sold it.

[@lapdogg]

Stickers, magnets and shirts that are on clearance (only when I need a new shirt) are my weakness when I feel compelled to buy souvenirs.

[@ggebhard1]

I’m using these ideas in my RV and my home! I’m tired of having so much around!!

[@heathersmiliekiwi8528]

Use the “throw pillow” ( cushions here in New Zealand) covers to store jackets .

[@GratefulGlamper]

Good idea!

[@snotbubbles3276]

It should be illegal to package water in anything smaller than a 5 gallon jug. More areas of the US should have water filtration centers that you can drive up to and fill a travel container with fresh cold water for a dime. Its disgusting to go to shopping centers and see a cart filled with 20 oz bottles.

[@charlenecastaldo3602]

Have only been borrowing books online for several years now. I especially like audio books so I can do other things while listening to them. I also have one little throw pillow for my husband's back that gets used in the fridge on travel days to keep things in place. Ha ha

[@paulettesatterlee5953]

I agree with you 100%. Every time we get ready to head out I down size with unneeded items

[@suegraham4323]

Thanks for your Berkey review and link. It’s expensive initially but I don’t like having to buy gallon drinking water bottles, storing them, worrying about having enough, and disposing of the plastic.

[@GratefulGlamper]

[@elsuperpollo2273]

My wife and I lately been just going to the supermarket, on the fly over going to a drive through for a quick grab and go salad. I like keeping oatmeal I can store on a shelf then useless food.

[@CrochetCamper]

YES!!! To several of these. August 2022 we moved into our RV for full-time camping. Sold our home and now live at the campground. We donated and threw away so much 'stuff'. Anything that can multifunction is the best. And I just don't need more 'stuff' to try and find somewhere to store it.

[@GratefulGlamper]

Exactly!

[@gladysrouleau6229]

Travel trinkets and clothing resonated with me. Those seem to multiply.

[@remirez2k3]

one good cooking and meal option most dont really think about is a dollar tree most of the items sold there food wise are smaller packages and work better for rving especially if only feeding 1-2 people especially there pasta packages for such little space i can buy a months worth of paSTA AND TAKE UP LESS SPACE THAN A STACK OF RAMEN NOODLES IN A CUPBOARD

[@dtgodin]

We have been trucking for 23 years, so we have been used to leaving behind a lot of stuff, and it turns out that we don't miss it. We just got into RVing, and I still have so many empty drawers. Our bedroom in the RV has 6 drawers, huge hanging closet for 18 hangers, and 2 other cabinets above the bed. I told my husband I was going to need to buy more clothes😂😂

[@jasoncarpp7742]

I know what it's like to buy things we *do not* need. Particularly when we go on vacation somewhere. I see a t-shirt that I like that has the name of a city we visited, last year, my parents and cousin and I visited Nashville Tennessee. I bought two t-shirts, one from the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum, and the other from the Musician Hall of Fame. My closet is packed with clothes that I never wear! Don't you hate that?!

Very true, thanks for watching

[@ChrisW228]

I love most of your list. I have even stopped buying most of those things for our home. LOL @ shot glasses. That was my “thing” in my 30s. Unfortunately, I travelled to a lot of places then that I won’t return to, so I can’t bring myself to toss them just yet, but the haven’t been unpacked the last few moves. Now, I buy jewelry. Not only is it something I always rotate, but when someone compliments a piece and I say, “ Oh, thank you. I actually bought this in Malta,” (my favorite necklace) it’s a great conversation starter. If you miss the throw pillows, you could serve a purpose with them. In my camper van, mine are filled with sweaters, blankets, my just-in-case puffy coat, etc. I would never pay so much for a mattress. A couple years ago, hubs and I replaced our perfectly comfortable mattress just because it was old and it was “time”. I bought a $200 memory foam mattress on WayFair. (Free shipping, in a box and shrink-wrapped, puffed out just like yours.) About a month later, hubs asked, “Is it only me or are you sleeping better on the new mattress, too?” To which I replied, “Yes! Like a log! You too?”

[@GratefulGlamper]

👍🏻

[@aradawicz]

We lived in our van for 7 months in 2020…came to the same conclusion on all of these…in our first 6 weeks we got rid of 1/2 of what we had packed in the van 🤦‍♀️

[@sherir4462]

Great video! It drives me INSANE that some places do not have recycling available! We are only weekend campers with one long trip a year. We bring it back home if someplace doesn't offer it.

[@GratefulGlamper]

I wish more campgrounds offered recycling too! We’ve also brought recycling to a center vs throwing it away

[@lisaawild]

We are weekend campers too and we bring all of the recycling to our home to put in the proper recycling can. It's so aggravating but I can't throw it in the regular trash.

[@donnabaardsen5372]

All of these tips are excellent, whether in an RV, or sticks and bricks. In fact, I'm on exactly the same page: no nick nacks, seasonal decor/decor in general, hit the library for all reading materials, including daily papers, etc. I don't even save a lot of clothing; buy gently used consignment/thrift store finds, and when out of season, donate and buy again the next year to save on storage. Not at all expensive because thrift prices are rock bottom. If you know what to look for, great finds are everywhere. Then there's the Dollar Tree. I could go on... but won't! It's extremely easy to look well-dressed, and as if money isn't an issue accordingly.

[@GratefulGlamper]

Thanks for watching and sharing

[@oldtimerlee8820]

You don't have to give it up. I'll use a wooden cutting board for an example. Size depends on your preference. Find a good spot where your cutting board can live permanently. Use it as the basis for seasonal decor items. Perhaps a 6" Christmas tree with a few ice cube sized wrapped presents. The board will accommodate all sorts of goodies for Valentine Day. Change out for symbols of St Patrick's day. If you like sweets, a small candy dish can be refilled with holiday day appropriate items. If you're in the US, think about how you can decorate your board for July 4th. Wrap the board with seasonal/themed paper or fabrics. Enjoy your creativity as you develop new ways to enhance your board. If you include consumables as a part of your decor, such as candy corn for Autumn it won't take much space to store the items you choose to keep. Remember the bowl you use for chocolate kisses in Feb may also be used for candy canes in Dec and salsa in June. (Dual duty item.) Choose a board and an appropriate storage container for you space. Then, you can make seasonal decor work for you. Both will have limits, yet give much opportunity to full explore the boundaries of those limits, as the seasons change. Hope this is some food for thought. PS: If you don't have a flat surface for a cutting board, think about wall space with a corkboard or pegboard. You may be pleasantly surprised at what you can do with one of those that's 18"x18" or "24x24". Pegboard has all sorts of options to aid in display. On travel days either one fully decorated can be placed on a bed and re-hung quickly at your next destination.

[@lifeunfiltered4822]

No, I will not give up books. Read it, then donate to a Little Free Library. They're everywhere.

[@deborahgoodwin6036]

I watch videos and people put clothing or towel or whatever soft items they can store in a case of a throw pillow and it looks good and it serves a purpose. These people live in vans or tiny houses.

[@GratefulGlamper]

Good idea 💡

[@agent8699]

Disagree on the Berkey, pretty hard to justify the upfront cost vs bottled water plus those replacement filters are not cheap either. I get enviro-concerns but budget is important too. It will take most people years to a decade or more to recoup the cost of the Berkey. If you have a high demand for drinking water then perhaps the Berkey can be justified otherwise stick with the cheap bottled stuff.

Disagree with #5. In my country food is very expensive, very USA focused is this video, but food is 30% of income in my country. Sometimes we have limits on buying bread one per loaf per day per customer from stores or they have no stock at all. Stock up on at least 3 months supply of pasta, pasta sauce, 00 bread and bread making ingredients like yeast and baking powder. #7 bottled water we have rain catchment and filters as described in the video. Town water is not drinkable, not even for animals. Love your channel about RV life, we live full time in RV.

Great video. As for bringing along too much stuff, I learned from my Dad decades ago when we were little and went camping is that he gave us a beer box. Sadly it was an *empty* beer box. 😉 Now remember, this was in the 60's and 70's. He said you can take all you want and what you want but it ALL must fit into the beer box. So, when we started camping with our kids is that we bought them a duffle bag and the same rules applied. You can bring anything you want and as much as you want but it all must fit in their duffle bags. And that rule applied to us as well. But that was camping, full-time, or long-term RV'ing is something different.

Isn't that funny~ I have 2 air fryers, one is a Ninja flip away oven style, other a regular Ninja Grill air fryer that I do make room for because I don't want to use the propane.=) I've never been comfortable cooking or heating w/any type of gas, & now that I'm nearly 60 yrs old, I doubt that will change.

Great subject Charity! I think there is a big difference between RV'ing full time vs. part time. We tend to load up for sure, but with just two of us camping, usually only a week at a time, we tend to bring more than we need, but we have the room and weight carrying ability for it. I can see where it would be an issue for a bigger family and for longer lengths of time. Charity, hope you are feeling OK, your voice sounds a little strained. Happy travels.

Plus they can do double duty for lighting screened in stuff, light up your rig in flashing hazard orange if you're stuck at the side of the road... Any other holiday decor - make it inflatables!

I like the 1 in 1 out rule but we are not even weekend warriors at this time, but if we were full or part time- it makes since. We just have a thought/ rule of---> can it be used for more than 1 thing. Example a step stool. It's a stool seat or a table. Also known as The Spork Rule Throw pillows -- due to our unit having a Murphy Bed and it's location / shape they help fill a gap at the head of our Bed to help keep our pillows from falling into the gap

This video made me laugh so hard! My husband LOVED it!! We have been full time almost 4 years now, but we are stationary, only moving when he got orders; now that he is retired out of the Marine Corps, we are stationary to care for his mom in WV. I have 5 pillows on the couch, 10 pillows on our Tempurpedic bed, and between our adult special needs daughter's instruments and my crafting supplies in the garage, we have to box up around 3K lbs if we move, lol! Decor and knickknacks? Maybe I went a little crazy, but our RV looks like a farmhouse when you enter, and everyone cant believe it looks so much like a home. If we traveled, it would, of course, be different, but my hubby LOVED everything you had to say, lol!! (He doesn't understand why we need so many pillows and blankets...😂)

Why do you have to remove decor after travel?? Whatever decor I bought for my travel trailer…..stays in the trailer.
