Thanks for watching!
If your emotionally dead inside in a sticks-n-bricks, still come to the RTR. This may be the cure.
😂😂😁😁😁🤣 sorry to laugh but you are true. i smile hearing bob wells about alive welcome and reading your comment 👍👍👍 probably a good cure, so many good vibes
😂😂😂
I 100% agree 😊😊
Sadly i missed it....i know thats where my heart is.. with the most compassionate, empathetic folks around, and what others are going thru, its a grateful occasion to gather to be communal w others whom understand many a difficult journey..& assist with navigation towards self sufficency.. god bless everyone w peace, joy & serenity, with lovingly wisdom to carry on and be strong thru your travels...may god bless you and protect us with security in our hearts, knowing that this community will welcome you with open arms.... see you on the road....!!!!!!
Such a true statement.
I just love Bob’s sincerity, authenticity and kindness. Thanks to you and all those who work and volunteer in these efforts. It’s a beautiful thing to see.
It’s fun to volunteer…join us!! 🤗
@@turnbullstravels735 I hope too! I’m still raising some younger kids but want to be on the road eventually!
Thanks for everything thing you do to help the nomad community. You’re such a giving person. Too bad more people aren’t like you. The world would be a much better place.
I WANT TO GO TO THIS SO BAD!!!!! I bought an RV a few yrs ago with dreams of packing up my 4 kids and hitting the road. My situation is a little unique because I live in a very remote part of the U.S. in Alaska
I want to not only experience for myself how big the world is but also show my children. Neither myself nor my kids have ever set foot in a Home Depot, IKEA, Lowes, etc. because big box stores don't exist in my town, there may not be any of those stores in AK at all, but even if there are, I still live on an island.
I'm 42 yrs old, and my kids are the 4th generation in our family to be born in the town we currently live in, Ketchikan Alaska. Located at the bottom of Alaska, it's nicknamed the First City because it's literally the 1st city one comes to when visiting Alaska by boat or plane.
I've always wanted to get off The Rock (another town nickname because we have hardly any topsoil) but living on an island makes things difficult. I have to make flight or ferry arrangements, and those tickets alone cost a pretty penny, then have to think about food & lodging. Since I've been a widowed mom of 4 for the past 9 yrs, saving up extra for travel just never seemed possible. Until I discovered Bob & his story; he started out in AK too, albeit way farther North than where I am, but he found a way and he made me believe I can too!
I enjoyed reading your comment, I hope all your dreams come true.
Nina
Pray to the Lord to guide your steps and that you will be able to get off that island and go south where it is nicer than the cold any day.
I'm a widow who just drove my RV with my little dog from Florida to Alaska this summer. I stayed for 123 days and never wanted to leave. But I wasn't on an island. And I did see the ferry prices. Very high. Keep your dream though. It might take the kids getting out of school in order for you to be able to hit the road in your RV, but keep your dream. Going to Alaska made me a better, stronger person. Hats off to you. Stay warm.
Ya just need gas money 👀🇺🇸
Do you keep your RV on the Island?
Hi Bob, I've been houseless living out of my Yukon XL for almost 3 years now. I really appreciate all of your informational videos.
Glad to hear that Columbia made a generous donation of cold weather gear for those in need!
Fun fact, in the Haida Alaska Native language, the word 'howa' means Thank you, although it's spelled Hawaa, but it's still pronounced the same.
I didnt stay for the meet and greet. Later in the day I ran into Bob at the gas station! He took time to stop and talk, so personable!
I went last year, what a wonderful experience. I really appreciated the talk on Medicare vs. Medicare Advantage, it gave me information that I needed to make a change. Thanks Bob and HOWA.
I wish I would have heard that one, but family obligations prevented me from coming after many years of attendance. Was it recorded and shared I wonder.
Yes, I think I did make a mistake on the Advantage plan this year, but it will take me another year to get back OUT due to health. My plan includes 12 massages/yr. I sure needed THAT when I was a nomad!
They don't talk to elderly people in the city.
wow, thank you for sharing your experience being there 👍👍👍
I cannot even wait! I mean I likely have to until next year, but I would never have the courage to without your channel. You’ve literally saved my life. I thank you so much
I have been a van lifer going into my third year. Now, my goal is to attend your RTR, come rain or shine, and to meet the guru of van life, Mr. Bob Wells. See you at the RTR.
I've been saying all year, unless I'm dead or in the hospital, I'm coming to this RTR! Hoping to get Bob to autograph my copy of his book!
Every year I want to go, but I never wanted to burn up all my vacation / PTO time for the year first thing in January! (I'm on the east coast, so 5000+ mile round trip.) But since I intend to 'retire' from my current occupation later in 2024, this trip will be a 'dry-run' for my impending retirement. I'm making a 4 week road trip of it and intend to see the Grand Canyon, Slab City, Death Valley, the Salton Sea and more while I'm out there! See y'all at the RTR! Safe Travels EveryOne!
Fly into Phoenix to rent a small 23 or so foot small RV and hit the road. Tourists from Germany do it regularly for the Southwestern road tours.
@@leilareggie1826 That would seem like 'cheating'; to FLY in to a gathering of van dwellers / nomads?! (Of course if you're coming from Germany there's no other practical way tho . . . )
Those RV's are quite expensive to rent too . . . could be more cost effective to just stay in a 4-star hotel instead, although I guess that defeats the whole spirit of the event as well. Maybe rent a minivan . . . . ?
@@leilareggie1826You have the right idea. Find solutions to solve the problem instead of ending the dream.
@@JacquelineTarleton Amen to that!!!!
Bob Wells. You are Amazing! HOWA is going in my will. So amazing. Love you!
We love you Bob! Thank you for everything that you and the community do!
Wow you jave lost a lot of weight, hope you are successful with weight loss, and not suffering an illness
Yeah, Bob's lookin' good these days. Lots of fresh air and hiking in the desert I suppose (I hope). He certainly look vibrant.
Thanks to all the volunteers who work hard to help the people that attend. I plan on attending some time in the near future. Thanks everyone 😊
Thanks Bob - this is a really great gathering for sure!! I (unfortunately? maybe not!) won’t be able to attend in 2024… I’m just about to quit my job here in Eugene, take a busy summer job down at the Grand Canyon, with a plan to be at our RTR in 2025. Quartzsite here I come!! First though, I must “stay with the program” and gather a few $$$ to buy my van. That will happen just before I depart for the Grand Canyon next summer. (I must confess that I additionally have a burning desire to see ALL the stars I can, in the dark desert skies, Milky Way my friend, destiny laid out before me.) So glad you are having a “prequel” for the women , before the main RTR... from January 11th - 13th. The women may perhaps need some additional assistance with their “life on the road”. (Although I have met several many mighty capable female van-dwellers who are way smarter than me.) Ladies I salute you!! Friends - please look for me in 2025; I will bigtime enjoy meeting all & everyone. May Good Fortune bless you all!!
I so wish I had made it to an RTR before it became so big. I was there in 2018. There were at least a couple of thousand or more. I am still very glad I went!
Sounds fun. Hope it's not to cold for you all. Enjoy and wish I'd be there, but can't.
Thanks for everything you do Bob. I'm heading out there for the first time, and am looking forward to the experience 💯%.
Learning, growing, and connecting with others a long the way.
Been following you for many years. Looking forward to shaking your hand and thanking you in person. You are an amazing human.
✌🍀
I love Bobs narrations of ppl asking questions 😊
I’m new to this life… been on the road a little over 3 months, but I’ve watched your videos for much longer- I’ve been looking forward to this announcement for 2 months!! I can’t wait!😊
Bob, you're too funny..."If you are alive...I don't know if we really want any dead bodies" LOL! I went to the women's RTR one year and had so much fun. I made some great friends!
😂😁😁😁👍👍👍👍💕💕💕💕💕💕 he is so lovely saying that 😁😁😁👍👍👍
for the real newbies.... the vast majority of camp spots are dry camping and without toilets. You just bring your own water and 'facilities' and you will be fine.
Shovel and 🪣 bucket……
We love you Bob!
I’d love to get there this year!
Just got my express van two days ago. It will be my second build, and very simple so MAYBE I can make it… I really hope so 😁 regardless I hope everyone going has a blast!
Thank you Bob an tribe 🌻🐝✌️💞🤟✨️🧚♂️
You Rock Bob! Leaving NH next week….was there in 2022…Fabulous
I wish. Homeless in Indiana blessings folks.
I can’t wait! Tried so hard to get there last year. Won’t miss it this year, even if I have to rent a vehicle to get there! See you there!
Thank you, Bob!! LOTS of love!!
I would love to go. Unfortunately my husband physically unable to travel. He needs me here. I travel through all of the youtubes I watch. Thank you for all of them.
RTR is Roll Tide Roll!
Roll Tide
Every time I listen to you speak Bob, I think, what a kind, compassionate man you are. I believe you to be as true as your words & I wish I could meet you and come to your RTR. But I live far far away & will probably never have the means to travel to your beautiful country, but knowing you, through your videos, is a gift I will always cherish and be thankful for.
GOD BLESS YOU ALL !!! A BIG BIG HUG FROM ITALY !!!
Awesome ❤
Bob you hVe changed the world and are one of Gods angels ...truth
Love the openness of the event. Bring yourself, enjoy the company.
Cant this year. But i hope to make next year's 2025👍❤
We really really really really love you Bob....see you on down the road.....donate to HOWA....People on the road are really helped!
I hope to finally get into the RTR and meet the wonderful people. And thank you, Bob, and the whole community for what you do and your attitude about this whole community. You're a gracious person and I appreciate you. And your videos!
It looks so fun! Thank you for your time sir.
I love Bob. He’s a wonderful man! I can’t make it there because of health problems but I feel better because I donated $20. Merry Christmas to everyone! I used to be tight with a buck, but no more.
How can I join HOWA?
They have both a website and a RUclips channel.
I've been following you for a number of years. I've kived in multiple RVs but wasn't mobile. Now, after making the decision a year ago to live and travel in my Buick Rendevous, I'm finally in Quartzsite. I'll be seeing you in a few days. Looking forward to meeting all who I am meant to. Thank you for creating such an open door welcoming event.
Bob, you are too wonderful. This is amazing❤
Working on making it this year. Worries, doctors and my cat are my walls. But I'm working on it. I just know this is my people.
Bob I someone is there to speak on 30x30 that the government is doing and the Company on the NY stock exchange buying land and shutting it down . People need to vote thanks Bob you are a American Asset
This could be interesting! See you in January!
Im so excited to finally make it there 🙏🏻 this year ❤
Looking good Bob! Nice and slim!

I wish I could be there this year, but I'm working towards next! In the meantime I've made a small donation -- I hope you will, too! It's an amazing event and HOWA is a fantastic organization. Have fun, everyone.
Always enjoy this. Always learn something new
wow glad I saw this video! I WILL BE THERE! So excited :)
Glad to see that there's another RTR, wonderful!
Thank you, Bob. For your, information on R,T,R. from gold van,in Tn.
Attended my first RTR and WRTR last year and loved it. Unfortunately I can't make it this year but I plan to be there next year. It was well worth the trip.
I wish I could be there but I'm still working at digikey. I've been here for over a year and thank you Bob for that video you did express employment. Improved my life considerably, see you the 2025 rtr for sure
God Bless You Bob, Great Inspiration, and Just a Great Soul ❤🙏
Thank very much Bob.
I am planning on attending, after several years of wanting to go!
Love it‼️💗
Thanks for your ever, energetic, loving , informative and generous information videos. Great service!
Wow! 45 to 10k!!! I can't wait till I can come.
Yay! Can't wait!!!
Just really like your videos. If I could afford to go, I would. You all seem like pretty cool people. Pretty much the opposite of my current neighborhood which makes it sadder I won't be able to do it this time. Have fun and God bless all of you❤
Serene and simply
Glad to hear about Columbia's and the donor's generosity! :)
Thanks a bunch Bob🎉
Absolutely be there! 🙋♀️
🤣🤣🤣🤘🤘🤘 if you are alive YOU ARE ALWAYS WELCOME!!! 🙏🙏🙏🙏💕💕💕💕
I love watching Bob’s videos they’re very informative
Still homebound till this spring. Hope to make the 2025 RTR
Can't wait, my first time!!
See you there!
AMAZING!!! You are a sweet giver and a a testament to truth in action! Thank you for all your years of providing for Nomads and those yet to roam❤
Bob your the the best👍
I've wanted to attend RTR for many years. May just be able to make it this year. Fingers crossed!!!
Looking forward to next RTR.. I remember the "10,000 people"!!!
Some day ,probably next year i Will be there , thanks Bob for all the information, hello from Puerto Rico to all the RTR friends
Can't make it this year but would love to contribute if you all are doing vehicle builds for people again. :)
ty
Thanks again for an informative video
Unfortunately I be most likely working still on power plant ; otherwise I show up ; hope you have great time with everyone bob.
Thanks for all you do Bob. I look forward to the day I get to meet you. I am renovating my RV and living in it at my sons in Lancaster CA. My home is up in WA state. I have it rented out right now to some people in need and giving them an amazing deal on the rent. (2.3 acres). The Nomad is the life I want. Having lost my husband in Feb., and that being devastating to me, we had both planned on living this way. So I'm going to do it on my own. The 2.3 acres at home is too much for me to handle on my own. Thanks again for all your great videos. God Bless.
If you have heat you can drive out and stay in January….I do in my van,you can park and set up for your evening just about anywhere, I’m a gramma and I go out there every year for a month, come home when I’m done. Just need to stay warm,it gets in the 20s………Huntington Beach 🏝️🇺🇸
I’m in the Bay Area, I may go, we will see 💕
Bob you're funny😂 " we don't want any dead bodies"
I’m coming to the RTR, but I’ll let you be in piece. However, if you are looking lonely, I’ll come by and say howdy. Thanks for all you do. ❤
HOWA is my favorite charity. I encourage people to donate all the time. I especially tell people who gripe about homelessness. It's one part of the solution.
Indeed. Perhaps one day folks won’t have to sneak around so much, ala stealth. Society changes slowly and perhaps RTR is part of that slow evolution.
I'm in Mt Shasta right now, before heading down there & it's pretty chilly here, being in a higher elevation. I've got quite a few friends from here, down in Quartzsite right now. I love the idea meeting new people & wearing shorts for the winter, haha! I love being a camp host.
Bought my van last week and getting the seats taken out tomorrow morning. I am so excited I am about to pee my pants!!
I will be there. leaving. dec. 28 leaving s. c. can wait
I really hope to make it!
I wish I could make it! I'm starting vanlife mid February. I need to get my apartment of 5 years cleaned out! Maybe next year!
I wood love to be doing what you are doing. When i move back to the USA i will be doing. Miss My boy's and the rest of my family back home.
I will try to make it there. I will rip the rear seat out of my Mitsubishi Mirage and put an air mattress in there. This will be neat.
How about that...ladies only first 🎉❤
I need to send this video to a number of people I know.
Hi Bob! Can’t wait to attend the event and meet you too!
I camped there a couple of years ago. The days are mild but it gets cold when the sun goes down. This is during the winter months.
I really really really want to go! I’ve been following for years! I am trying to have my van mechanically in tune for the almost 3,000 mile trip! Trust me I will be praying every night before bed. 🙏🏼☝️🤞🍀❤️
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
