  • In this documentary, a newlywed couple embarks on their first year of living full-time in an RV. Dive into a life on the road and see behind the scenes of full-time travel - from what it’s like to live in a tiny, rolling home, to exploring some of the breathtaking natural wonders of this country. With all the serenity and peace of outdoor-living and the adventure and challenge of a life of minimalism and constant travel, there's a lot to be discovered in a year on the road.

    As fellow full timers - yes we watched to the end. Your enthusiasm and skill in producing this video made it very captivating throughout - well done. It’s difficult to show and document the full time RVing lifestyle because it’s very hard to capture the experience but you did a great job in this video. Thank you

    I have been a van lifer for a year and a half now and wish I had started this years ago after retiring from the military. It has been fun, educational and the freedom to travel whenever and wherever has been so gratifying. I can never move back into a bricks and mortar setting and the thought of having a mortgage again. Now I am ready to upgrade into a Class B RV. I thoroughly enjoyed your vlog...almost seemed like a movie, actually. I fell in love with Mose. I would love to have a couple of travel companions. Anyway, awesome production. Looking forward to your future travels.

First Covid then then fires (1/2 mile from home ) then ice storm that trapped us because of hundreds of downed trees. I watched your video straight though. Thank You so much ❤️

So to me, you two are on the right path of your life journey and can emote the energies through your craft. I LOVE it! Love your essence you share and am going to enjoy the following. I plan to get on the road during retirement in about four years. So I do all the things of watching and learning through those before me over the past four years. :D Thanks, guys!

    This is a lot of work! More accessories, more toys, more gadgets, more maintenance, more things will breakdown, slide-out (more breakdown/maintenance), long trailer (limited accessibility), pets (more expenses, more effort/time). Things keep get piling on...more power to you. I can't do it.
    What is your fuel cost per month on average?

    • @WildHixsons
      @WildHixsons  3 роки тому

      Our fuel costs really vary depending on gas prices, how often we’re moving, and how far we’re driving, so we don’t have a really reliable ‘average’ but the truck gets about 7-10 mpg while towing!

    I have to agree with all the comments I have read thus far. I’ve been watching couples videos about RV’n and before this video I would have said that if you’ve seen one you’ve seen them all but there is something refreshing and dare I say special about this video. I can go on and on about why I feel this video is special and well worth the time to watch it in its entirety but that would include too many spoilers so I would just say that you can take my advice, sit back and relax, and you can thank me later. Thanks again to the Wild Hixsons for this great video. I can’t wait to watch many more from you guys.

    Hello. My wife and I watched your documentary from start to finish. We found it very well done, informative, with honest insights and great photo shoots. We are older now, and unable to live this type of lifestyle due to health, but we found ourselves living past life through your video for at least this one hour. Your video skills and comfort speaking to the camera are highly refined. As I've aged, I realize I have many regrets of opportunities passed by. I love your minimalist approach and your love of nature. Your love for each other is clearly evident as well, and heart warming. Keep following your dreams and make everyday count. Do not grow old and end up with regrets. P.S. I think you and Tyler would love the area around Asheville North Carolina. Give it a try.. Blessings and safe travels from Michigan.

      What about a helper who would like to go and can't afford it? You're going to see a lot of this in the future. Mostly parents w grown kids, as you can't work FT and be there for older people. So, kid does shopping, cooking, cleanup and maybe pays utilities. Plus pocket money. At the end w kids. They usually get the house.

    i've been on the road full time for 4 years, i've never stayed in an rv park, but i have a senior pass for the national parks. the pass gives me free entrance to the parks and half price camping in most parks. what i liked most about your story was the discovery of boon docking and living with less and the joys of each.
    hint: you know you're into the essence of "boon docking" when you grab your camera and forget your phone when going for a hike or exploring the new area.

I liked the way you engaged with your surroundings everywhere you went. One thing that was unexpected was that when you visited Tyler’s family near the end, there was talk of reconnecting with places, but no mention of reconnecting with people you ... love? Of course you do, but i was looking forward to hearing more about your people connections while you were there, because people are the most important thing, but not much there.

    I enjoyed the moments between you two the most. I watched every minute, and shared this with friends. I loved your perspective on life and finding joy everywhere it presents itself to you. Your journey and perspective seems very much like mine, even though I’m in technology living in an apartment in New York City. I’m rooting for you guys, and I don’t know why you two aren’t America’s most talked about couple! Don’t forget about us, keep sharing.

    I have watched so many RV and nomadic type videos over the past several weeks. Even since deciding against the big purchase , I still like watching. For us because it felt like we were just being impulsive because where we are in life.
    I was very drawn to your story because of the feel, the videography, and the calm nature of it all. You didn't have to scream to keep viewers watching. I get that some feel it wasn't representative of the real side and pitfalls but then that isn't why I was watching. I was interested in the evolution and your development as a new couple on the road. Your passion for living and the beautiful world around you was captivating. I also thought your ability to capture the quiet beauty of each area was also wonderful. Very nicely done.
    But I really stayed to see the travels of Mose the Wonder Pig. Ya gotta love Mose.
    Good luck and happy travels

Of course we know that you chose not to include the struggles n obstacles for the most part in this video, but I can also see a purpose in it. Just beautiful.

    Absolutely loved every moment of your journey, conversations, the gorgeous scenery, and of course, Mose. Such a good little travel piggy! My husband and I are older, but have visited many of the places you have, with hopes to return West in spring of 2022. We live in the southern Appalachians of north Georgia, but I adore the diversity of the western states and their deserts. We were making our way towards Utah and staying in in Big Bend NP in March 2020 when they announced a Covid closure, so we hightailed it home. I think you’d like it there, too.
    May you both have many full and happy years together and an abundance of treasured adventures along the way. Maybe we’ll see you on the road someday. Peace~•~

Maybe a bit slower as in staying in one place for a few months rather than a few days/weeks, but the nomadic lifestyle is calling my name. My husband and I are currently saving up to purchase our first RV (along with a truck to pull it) hopefully by next year! This documentary was so well made and inspiring. Just makes me so much more excited to get on the road and travel full-time! :)
