Nomad Life
The joys (and pitfalls) of nomadic life
It was a big deal to quit our ‘normal’ life in 2018. We sold 90% of our possessions, moved our family into our 350 square feet home on wheels, and started traveling full-time.
Along the way there have been so many highs – like getting to embark on adventures and and see the beauty of North America. But, there’s also been some struggles along the way too.
I don’t spend most of my time blogging about RV travel, but it’s a big part of this pilgrimage to get outdoors. So, here and there, I try to share a few nuggets about this nomadic lifestyle for those who are interested in transitioning to this way of life too.
