    You mentioned in your Bob interview that you are just winging it for most stuff and you are in your first year of nomad freedom so I thought I would share this tidbit: There is a club for nomads called the Escapees that for $50 a year they help members navigate establishing residency in either Texas or South Dakota and they provide a garage-able address (on paper) that is legally valid for a drivers license, auto insurance and to legally have bank accounts to keep the all important social security checks flowing. You have to only stay in those states for one day to establish residency. Both locations are probably 3 days of driving there and then 3 days back from your location but it can solve a lot of headaches and after establishing residency you can renew in the future without going back. I haven't researched yet how to establish the option for out-of-state medical care (that doesn't cost $1,000 per visit) but I'm sure the Escapees club has people in it that know. Congratulations on becoming a free man.

    I started on my journey 1 year ago when I purchased a 2023 Promaster Winnabago Van. First trip was 3 weeks exploring the Great Lakes. Michigan was amazing. Next trip was starting going to mile 0 in Florida Keys and traveling the Gulf Coast to Texas. This summer, the adventure was going from Florida to Virginia to pick up my sister and we were off across the country to explore all the way to California. We always try to avoid interstate roads. I enjoy the back roads. In between our RV adventures, we did several cruises to explore Alaska, then 8 weeks adventure in Europe, and last cruise was 2 weeks to Hawaii Islands. Alaska was definitely amazing favorite. I want to drive across top of US and cross Canada to explore Alaska. I hope you continue to enjoy your retirement and travel adventures. I have enjoyed following you on UTube.

It's a nice setup you have but I thought too small to fulltime in, but you have it set up perfectly. (Plus you have the secure bed of the truck to add additional things you need too.) Glad you are able to retire and live on your monthly earnings without worry of your house being foreclosed, etc., plus doing what you love to do anyway...camp.

You’re right he’s just as nice in person as he is on Camera. I’m glad to hear there’s a good road going out to where there’s some extra privacy. Sometimes that’s very hard to find. Aloha

    Just found you on Cheaprvliving interview with Bob Wells! I really love your camp set up! So very nice! The area you are exploring is near where my brother just purchased a 40 acre property for off grid camping for his family... He likes to enjoy longer camping times such as setting up camp for 4 months at a time, so between this one and his Yuma area property he has some variety. QUESTION: Do you ever look for quick evacuation routes in case of FIRE? With Trees or dry brush, I think it's important to know... THANK YOU for sharing your life!
