What 1 Year of Full-Time RV Living Taught Us
In honor of our One-Year, we created several videos to answer some of our most frequently asked questions, including our RV life finances, how we plan, how we tow, regrets, learnings and the highlights of our trip so far.
Highlights
Here are the highlights and low-lights of our first year on the road as full-time RVers. We saw SO much, and it still amazes us the number of incredible experiences that can happen in just one year of full-time RV living.
How Much Does Full-Time RV Living Cost?
How much does RV Life cost? Here the breakdown of our actual expenses from that first year. Feel free to use it to help budget and plan for your RV living expenses.

Motorhome vs. Fifthwheel Vs. Trailer
We obviously chose a fifthwheel, but that might not be the right choice for your full-time RV living. Here we discuss why we chose it, and what we saw as the pros and cons to other RV types.
How We Plan Our Travels
Do you book campgrounds a year in advance? Or, do you wing it an allow yourself flexibility? We discuss our planning style and HOW we determine the cheapest way to travel.
How We Move Our Home On Wheels
(without yelling at each other)
To someone unfamiliar with RVs (like we were at the beginning), just towing or driving an RV can be daunting. Here is how we move our fifth wheel RV from place to place (and save our marriage).
