Ask Us Anything!!
Hey Y'all!
Ask us anything, this attempt... We actually got a few questions.
The first question comes from @countrygang2 on TikTok:
"What made you want to do van life?"
We have always liked to travel, and camping. The more we learned about this option, the better it felt. We can travel as much as we want, stay a few hours or a few weeks. It's the perfect marriage of traveling cheap, and camping with luxuries. We had always talked about traveling "later" but also wanted to do the bulk of it when we were young enough to see the sites and get around well... So later became now.
This second question comes from @shadowwolfstudios on YouTube:
"Where to next?"
After we leave here, and spend 2 weeks in NE TN for doctors appointments, we're headed to Ohio! Then we're about 80% decided on PA.
Last question was a DM from Sarah:
"How do you make money for travel?"
We were fortunate enough that our house sold for well over what we owed. We paid off everything, then switched all our recurring bills to yearly. (Like phones, storage unit, insurance, etc.) Our biggest expenditures currently are gas, food, and camp spots. That varies by location, how far we go, how much we travel around once there, and where we're staying.
Currently we've budgeted for the next few years on that alone if needed. We hope for the social media thing to take off enough to make a couple hundred a month, and we have short term workamping* gigs, as well as secret shopper gigs. (Some are better than others, if you'd like more info leave a comment below.)
*What is Workamping?
- Ask ten Workampers to define workamping and you are likely to hear ten different definitions for what is workamping. Technically speaking, however, “workamping” is the contraction of “work” and “camping” to describe a working arrangement for RVers which usually involves a place to camp as compensation for services rendered.
