RV Tour | Solo Female Traveler | Why She Chose an Airstream Over Van Life

[@karadizon4299]

Wow she’s amazing. Living life to the fullest and enjoying her life after her divorce. I see some people who goes through a divorce and all they do is sit around and self pity, I so love her. Her instagram photography is amazing

[@TravisTravels]

She’s pretty awesome, thanks for watching.

[@markj10]

I’ve lived on the road for over 6+ years, tried the vanlife which was great, but now living in my Airstream is the perfect balance, I don’t ever think about moving into a brick&mortar or miss it. I lover to live in State Parks and National Parks... Life is what you make of it!!

[@TravisTravels]

I agree completely.

[@barbibutton9619]

My family believe that I am "unstable" for making this my short term goal. I KNOW in my gut and soul, that I can live out my days HAPPILY in an RV

[@TravisTravels]

@@barbibutton9619 family often times are the least supportive and understanding of our goals. Just do it! They’ll get with the program eventually.

I agree! I bought a lil Guy Max in honor of my father Guy in November and it’s still winterized and I was paralyzed because of all that’s gone wrong so far and just a week ago today I crunched my ac unit at the car wash!! I cried and wanted to sell it and then I put my big girl panties on and have kept putting one foot in front of the other and stumbled upon this video just now and honestly it was a God send for it sure boosted my esteem! Thanks lady!! Now I wanna get out there and go for it!!!

[@LauraJCole]

@@Rejoicewithsinging I’m so happy to hear that! For what it’s worth, it seemed like everything went wrong for me this January. I had to push back my trip three weeks after getting sick, then blowing two tires, which damaged my airstream and I had to take it to the shop to get repaired. On the way back from picking it up, I hit a pole and put a big ole dent on the side. I thought the universe was telling me this whole trip was a bad idea, but I’m glad I didn’t get stuck on that thought and I wouldn’t trade these past few months on the road for anything. 💕

[@Rejoicewithsinging]

Laura Thanks soo much for sharing all this because this is the wacko stuff that’s been happening to me and finally I screamed out last Friday night “God are you trying to tell me this is not for me!?!” He didn’t answer back but things sure have been a bumpy road and it’s encouraging to know that in spite of it all you keep going girl!!

Hey great rig! And good for you for just doing it. One tip I've always been told to do- is cross the safety chains on the hitch. It doesn't look like yours are. I've towed lots of things over the years, and if it meant lengthening the chains, I did it. Cheers!!!

[@TravisTravels]

makes no difference to show license plates or tags in videos. It's in public view in public eyes for 100's of people to see everyday. There is no scam or hack going around where someone can take that information and do anything of value with it. Its just a non sense superstition that people have been saying for years but has no warrant or actual proof of any wrong doing.

LOVE this! I am getting ready to sell my house in 2 weeks and I am trying to figure out how to make vanlife vs RVlife work. I am an ER nurse and I have 2 cats (they are my first priority) so I need to be able to keep them safe and warm or cool, depending on the season, while I would be at work. I am so envious of people who are living’ the dream have so much freedom!

[@TravisTravels]

What is the average temps where you live during the summer?

[@iheartcolorado9311]

@@TravisTravels I currently live in Minnesota, so it’s very cold in the winter and VERY hot and humid in the summer. My plan is to travel though, I don’t want to stay in MN. I will probably do travel nursing. There is just no way that I would leave my cats in a van without heat or or air, nobody should leave an animal in a hot or cold vehicle. A van just gives a lot more freedom, but an RV may be more sensible for me. Love your content!

[@TravisTravels]

@@iheartcolorado9311 Thank you so much. I know a few traveling nurses doing vanlife. I think you have consider accessibility too. I don't know about hospitals and parking for employees but I'm willing to bet they aren't ok with RV's in the parking lot. But a van they are. Every person I've met on the road is always conscious about leaving their pets in the vehicle. The cold isn't as much a factor as the heat. As your vehicle should be insulated. And a heater that's ideal for any situation is a diesel heater. Have a maxxair fan on the roof to circulate the air. That'll drop the inside temp by 10 to 15 degrees depending on where you are. Also get a pet camera, so you can monitor the temps inside the vehicle as well as check in on your pets when you want on your phone. A/C is out of the question. But I know of a new swamp cooler that can run off 200 watts of solar.
