I'm 61 and I've been permanently disabled for quite a few years now. The price for rent in my area is way to expensive. I used to travel in a motorhome with my wife before she passed and we had a great time and saw a lot of area. We also met a lot of very nice people and shared a lot of meals and stories. I'm thinking of buying a pu and build a sort of camper shell for it to travel and you have given me a lot of advice. Thanx very much and happy travels.
This really inspires me. I can't wait til I get some debt paid off then buy my rig and start my journey. I figure a couple more years til then. In the mean time I keep watching the community and slowly making plans . . . Cheers from Canada
You can do it, and videos like this bring hopefulness, made 48 out of 72 payments on my truck after 2 car accidents in one month, but starting a small business where I now do pet care overnights for $27 a day, I am closer to freedom.
I really like these videos. I don't know if I would be comfortable giving up my permanent home or not. I have a little acreage and a small trailer. It's kind of like a permanent camp sight. But I would like to see more of the country. My budget don't cover much travel so I do it with these videos. These people aren't living off anyone. They work or live off retirement. The money they spend traveling or buying groceries contributes to the economy just like the people who live in one spot. Yes you can contribute to their blogs but that is up to you. You pay for tv or movies. If you use this as entertainment what is the difference? It's better than anything coming out of Hollywood.
Look into airbnb if you haven't. Private rooms can be really inexpensive there, and it opens up a whole new world of travel options if you're on a low budget. I recently stayed in a gorgeous, million dollar home for about $30 per night. It's pretty easy to drive somewhere, see the sights for about 3 days and spend no more than a couple hundred dollars.
WOW! People and their hostility toward individual choices! R E L A X! Live and let live. A few of us are born Nomads and we are happy with our choices. Thanks Bob for your information - it really helps.
Well done! I was just wondering about where here in AZ to go with a trailer and truck. Good info for anyone who is learning about how to do this "boon-docking" stuff. I live in Az now and just found Bob's videos. 60yrs old and starting on this new "trek" of RV life. Nice to see so many of my compatriots going through the same stuff in life. Thank you Bob. Your videos are full of practical stuff for every day life.
Wow! Quite a few people who don't like this idea at all. I grew up in Arizona and like the desert. But the desert is best in the winter. It's not lush. It's a desert. There are much harsher deserts. This is a relatively green sort of desert. You do what you do, out there. There's no snow. You get older and snow isn't really your friend. My only gripe is that so many of these areas have been torn up by off road activity. Plus there is a lot of noise. Along the main roads in the LTVA, there can be 20 ATV's rolling by with a lot of dust and noise. I don't know what will be left of any of these places in 20 years. Blythe would be good for shopping. The stores in Qsite are OK. You can sort of get around on an ebike, from the LTVA. But everything jams up in January. I liked it out by Plomosa, but now they are really serious about the two week limit. It sounds like a lot, but having to move when you are settled is a pain. Alaska. That whole trip. That's what is left if you really want something wild and empty and natural. Have to do that. Great stuff.
Yes, yes, ATV's might end up getting us all kicked off public lands. I say if you want to drive fast, go on a highway, don't tear through the desert unable to even see what you are passing.
MrEroshan Ehrenberg is a specifically designated OHV area. What does OHV mean, you ask. It means Off Highway Vehicles. Precisely what you are complaining about. If you don't like the OHV area you are free to move to another location.
@@samualwhittemore228 It's public land,but there is land where you can camp and stop any activity that you disapprove of. It's called "private property". Now go and buy some.
Ah... loved that area when we discovered it (actually introduced to it by one of your forum colleagues) this February. We stayed for 3 weeks and can't wait for next winter to be back! :)
Been living in my class b for the last five years throughout the west and southeastern US, never once had a problem finding a place to camp or boon dock for free.
Thank you for showing your camp Bob. I was wondering how safe is it, really ; but I can see now that you`re not actually in the middle of nowhere all by yourself. I`m the first to admit I don`t know everything, so if something went wrong, mechanically or otherwise, its nice to know that there are others within yelling distance. Thank you.
want2b nomad in what way ? Maybe not Inside Reno but within 50 miles . I don't gamble but want to be closer to I-80 . I also want to be closer to placerville etc to gold pan .
Homeless, litter, graffiti, drunks, gangs, crime, tons of abandoned buildings. The surrounding mountains are beautiful, and it's nice being so close to Lake Tahoe. For the most part Reno is a trashy town with some real sketchy characters.
My son and I will be headed that way this fall. We each have our own van that we've converted into campers. We are both in our second month of full-time van living and absolutely love it! Depending on when winter decides to move into Minnesota we will be headed down sometime in October. Can't wait!!! Thanks for making all your wonderful videos! I have learned so much from watching you. And I'm so sorry about your mother I'm praying for you and your family.
Osiyo Bob, Each video pulls us into wanting this life more and more as it reassures us that reality far out ways our preconceived fears! We have some about 18 months before we can create our new life of freedom but we are in the planning stages, thanks to your videos and shared wisdom. Wado! (Cherokee word for thank you)
I was just opening a box of white cheddar bunnies and had a glass of milk handy when I saw the new posting. Now I am hunkering down for some great videos with Bob!
Why are there so many trolls on here ? People have a right to live how they want to. Nobody asked ya"all what you think about it. I miss Arizona sooo much ! Ehrenberg is a great place to be.

Thanks for another great video ! Shalom and Godspeed 🌼
Thanks for the explanation on where to go to find a place to camp, as the temperatures go up. Can't handle the heat, planning on getting away from the frozen Midwest in the winter however!
An important point to make too is to pick up and keep places clean. It sounds like it should go without saying, but i've seen weekend campers trash places, and it gets blamed on anyone staying long term. It's also like paying rent. Very few people will object to you staying if you pick up the area and make it nice
great video for people who are looking for low cost alternatives to the rat race. I used to camp in Quartzsite LTVA's (Long term visitor's areas), but the fee for the winter months kept going up and up. glad to know there are some absolutely free areas. people need hope and this is hope. plenty of shopping in Blythe across the river or 30 miles north in Parker, Wyatt Earp's old hang out.
I'm 53 and I live right across the River from Detroit in Canada, Windsor Ont. I sold my house in Toronto and bought a house and an 85 RV and both are owned outright. Then.....COVID came to town so no crossing the border for a while. This is absolutely a place I'll consider...EH!! 😉
Bob I love your videos and I have subscribed. You are well spoken and very polite with all the folks you interview! Moreover the tips and technical content you provide is outstanding!! While I don't necessarily agree that folks should be able to live for free on federal Iands I certainly appreciate your perspective. I personally believe everyone should carry their own weight in this country and one group of tax payers paying for management of BLM and federal lands or paying for health care and social security for others is just not moral. Right now I feel lots of tax payers are economic slaves to others and few consider how unfair that is in this day and age because the media doesn't bring it up nor do we want to admit to it because so many are takers not givers! Thus I am a user fee kind of person when it comes to camping and dumping your waste, and maintaining roads and infrastructure, using health care assets, etc. Having said all that I do really admire how you try to inform people to be safe and to embrace a far less material life. Kudos to you sir!
Thank you so very much for all your help !!! I live in Connecticut and I just want to spend Jan - March and I will return to Ct to live in my Beautiful 5th wheel ✌️😎🥰💕🤗🎉
@@CALIZONAOUTDOORS oh my that was six years ago! Different vehicle and Ehrenberg isn’t what it was. I prefer Quartzsite now. And yes, 14 days is the rule. Hopefully for you too, my friend.
@@barefootincactus yes 14 days for all, so those of us who actually live here and pay taxes can enjoy the mild winters. Also, not finding bags of human feces from long term visitors would be nice.
Cool that's great.!! I'm on the east end of US which gets too cold to camp in the winter.!! Plus I would love a warmer climate for winter. Bad side I'm a renter and would have to leave my apartment.!! Then I would be a NOMAD.!!
I'm hoping to sell my house and downsize all of my earthly belongings within hopefully the next 6 months and purchase a self sufficient off grid camper van or small RV and make my way to Arizona before next winter..I'm 61 and have no family here in KY and I would want to be around other people and enjoy life for a change.. I'm on a fixed income but have been checking out what item or items I could make and sell on the road to supplement what I exist on.. thankfully your videos give me more insight to the nomad lifestyle and have made me realize that I can do this alone as long as I have a nomad family to answer questions and give me advice on what works best and what doesn't..i know I will be happier than staying here in this small town that I have always hated and would have never returned to if it wasn't for my mom being here but she passed away in Aug 2019 and I have nothing to keep me here anymore...
If the temperatures get into the hundreds, can you not use an evaporative cooler in your RV? That's an internal swamp cooler and the only Power it uses is to turn the fan and blow water cooled air through the filter. Any solar outfit that you have for your RV can handle that, whereas it could not handle an air conditioner.
Oh Bob, I'm so-so-so ready!!!!! I need warm, dry winter weather for arthritis. With my luck, the rangers will decide to start enforcing the 14 day max. stay. 😓✌
I love your advice. I have so much fun thinking about my future now. hopefully, i'll be buying a small trailer after this summer & maybe i'll see you soon! I will meet you someday & thank you in person for giving me direction.
I stayed on the river there a few times. I had a Verizon hotspot for internet. Cost me about $50 per month for 40gb data. Would like to hear of what others use for internet.
good video bob thanks bunches I want to come but along ways from detroit michigan but Im going to try and make it to the rtr in jan.thanks again for all your vids
Right now I have a 3 year plan or rather a 2 1/2 year plan to pay off all my debt or as much as I can, save a little and start my early semi-retirement. I’ll be 55 and right now thinking of working 6 or less months each year and enjoy the other 6 months
What about a 21-ft travel trailer? I really don't want to spend another winter in Minnesota and I am ready to boogie out of here with basically the shirt on my back!
Hi Bob I really enjoy your videos I'm retired and ready to hit the road, I heard you say you get Internet in desert Ehrenberg area and wonder How you getting Internet ?
I make $4700 a month from my job but am ready to give it up for $1800 a month on retirement in a motorhome and my cat. Some things are worth more than money.
I was just going to suggest people see the movie, Nomadland. There are so many videos of people glamorizing this lifestyle, and the movie really gets to the reasons and realities of the nomad lifestyle. I fell in love with all the characters, some are true nomads, and some of their stories are heartbreaking. I highly recommend the movie. This channel is such a great resource for people.
It seems to me that van life is for those people who already have large savings account. Unless you have enough cash on hand to by a van/rv up . it would be very hard to start on limited income.
Two cine people:some look at u and trying found what wrong whit u and tell u about to make u feel bad and they wery happy,and some look at u trying found what is best in u and tell u about to make u feel good about u self
Honestly this is the most humble way to live. No rent and isolated with a dog perhaps hunting and trapping food cooking it over the wood stove maybe building on to the tent with wood logs stripping and building idk seems more humble then getting trapped in the rent game. Save so much money
@@frankhall7005 yes you can build on government? Where did you get your source from?? Source: trust me bro.? Did you do any research also there’s things to hunt? There’s things to hunt right in the back yard I have now and there’s like 3 trees rabbits deer and squirrels if you don’t think there’s any animals in the middle of the woods your hot dog water
I like Yuma BLM myself. I don't know how you can say Blythe has cheap shopping. I have been there a number of times and find it outrageous expensive, especially compared to Kingman or Yuma. I am curious to know what you do about garbage and fresh water when you stay there.
I have been really interested in doing this and have been watching many many videos. I thought there were more people out west to hang out with; I am not interested in traveling by myself as a single woman. I have to admit I felt a little bummed and discouraged after watching this video.
I watched this video several times. Took me almost 2 years but I finally made the leap. Love it out here on the road.
@Midnight Philosopher Me too! 3 more years till pension.
Love the videos. Selling my house now and I’m ready to make the leap of faith.
How's it going?
Where do you camp in the spring summer months
I’m so looking forward to go and hang out for the winter ✌️😎
I'm 61 and I've been permanently disabled for quite a few years now. The price for rent in my area is way to expensive.

Hey, your post was three years old. How you making out?
So far I like Ehrenburg best. Closer to Blythe(groceries and such) and it looks like YUMA TV is in range. I also like being near a river !!
Where is this actually atin Ehrenburg ? Can you camp anywhere in Ehrenburg with no 14 days restriction ?
@@dangcao8341 The area he is showing has no restrictions so you can stay as long as you want.

That takes a minimum of 750 watts of solar and no AC running overnight.
I make $4700 a month from my job but am ready to give it up for $1800 a month on retirement in a motorhome and my cat. Some things are worth more than money.
No doubt they are Stan
I love this series.
We’re you in the movie that came out on HBO Nomadland?
He was!
I was just going to suggest people see the movie, Nomadland. There are so many videos of people glamorizing this lifestyle, and the movie really gets to the reasons and realities of the nomad lifestyle. I fell in love with all the characters, some are true nomads, and some of their stories are heartbreaking. I highly recommend the movie. This channel is such a great resource for people.
He did that video with that Tear drop trailer.. in liked that one.
what a wonderful video! thank you!
I love your videos!!
It seems to me that van life is for those people who already have large savings account. Unless you have enough cash on hand to by a van/rv up . it would be very hard to start on limited income.
It seems like if you want to do it with full insurance etc it does cost a bit.
Two cine people:some look at u and trying found what wrong whit u and tell u about to make u feel bad and they wery happy,and some look at u trying found what is best in u and tell u about to make u feel good about u self
Honestly this is the most humble way to live. No rent and isolated with a dog perhaps hunting and trapping food cooking it over the wood stove maybe building on to the tent with wood logs stripping and building idk seems more humble then getting trapped in the rent game. Save so much money
Lol there's nothing to hunt it's government land you can't build anything on it. It's not Alaska it's BLM land in Arizona.
@@frankhall7005 yes you can build on government? Where did you get your source from?? Source: trust me bro.? Did you do any research also there’s things to hunt? There’s things to hunt right in the back yard I have now and there’s like 3 trees rabbits deer and squirrels if you don’t think there’s any animals in the middle of the woods your hot dog water
I love the way he said, "...that could be you!"
I camp in a small suv and I’m an author, just published my 2 nd book.
Wastelander approved. I love BLM camping. Thanks for the info, Bob.
💜🐾Thank You Bob 💜🐾
well done bob as usual thankyou :)
I like Yuma BLM myself. I don't know how you can say Blythe has cheap shopping. I have been there a number of times and find it outrageous expensive, especially compared to Kingman or Yuma.
I am curious to know what you do about garbage and fresh water when you stay there.
I would love to review the battery video with the coin analogy. Could you push it to the head of the line of reposted videos?
Thank you!
Bob, you keep saying they're "with us" or othets are not "with us".........so how does one get "with" you? As in your tribe?

Thank you
great vid Bob, tanx man.
Love his channel great video
Thanks for the usaul good info
I have been really interested in doing this and have been watching many many videos. I thought there were more people out west to hang out with; I am not interested in traveling by myself as a single woman. I have to admit I felt a little bummed and discouraged after watching this video.
Would love to come south to do some gold prospecting during those months.
Love it!!!!
