    Just when I think that you must be running out of content you keep coming up with more, deeper and better content. Most other sites have weaker and weaker content as time passes. Your content becomes more in-depth, more detailed, more focused and more professionally presented. I said it before, I will say it again. Bob, you are a very successful person. Thank you for being who you are.

    Using Maps is awesome I always use a map even though I use a GPS Device. I thought my children how to use the map at a very young age because we’ve always traveled. They don’t teach it in school anymore. I’m a teacher and it’s very sad the things we don’t kids. Two years to retirement until I can live the nomad life.

    Might be worth it to remind people (like me) who grew up in the southern latitudes that during the summer when you travel farther north there is significantly longer days. I was in Great Falls in June, 2020 and there was 16+hrs of daylight. We all have likely heard that there's 24hrs of sun in Alaska during the summer, but it just didn't sink in for me that the northern tier of the lower 48 had much longer days until I saw it for myself.

    Every time i feel myself becoming more gluttonous and wanting to spend money I watch your videos Bob. You always put things into perspective for me and remind me that if I am strict now and save up a little money I will have all the freedom I could possibly want soon. I get out of the Army in 627 days 11 hours and 10 minutes (not that I'm counting or anything) and boy am I excited to hit the road with my dog and see everything all of the Tribe members get to see every single day. Thank you for continuing to upload videos and continuing to preach your very important message of letting the heart sing.

    I've been watching these videos for at least two years, and find them very informative, interesting, with some very accomplished vehicle dwellers. I'm a 69-year-old woman, and believe me, I'm not nearly as spontaneous and fearless as when I was twenty-nine! But watching these has given me much more confidence to just do it! I'm still torn between buying the Prius or the RAV4--I'm not sure which would be best.

Already enjoying this winter! Take care.

Very excited, but also terrified and exhilarated at the same time. What a HUGE step this is. I've been watching your videos for a long time now. Thank you for for putting in the time and effort and sharing your experience with us. It's greatly appreciated. Thanks! Regards, Eric

Life is too short to spend the way we are programmed to live it

    I was in Leadville last year and found some great boondocking close to town planning exactly as you show it done.
    Most of the planning was done before leaving Texas. Maybe you could mention MVUM's and dispersed camping on them in a future video. Great videos, Bob!

  • @NicoVeenkamp
    @NicoVeenkamp 6 лет назад +1

    Excellent explanation video Bob. I love how you explain what you look for and use those criteria for planning road trips and campsites. With some small changes you use the exact same reasoning for Europe. There are a few great websites and apps with details on available campsites that have places for RV’s or for camper places.

    Great information Bob. I use to live in Leadville and loved the town. I will also mention that to the east of town is some dirt roads that go out to some abandoned mines where you can still find pyrite lying around. You can also access Mosquito Pass from Leadville but make sure you have four wheel drive because it is a rough road.

    • @alicehallam7949
      @alicehallam7949 4 года назад

      Jimmy don't give up. Make your plan by breaking it into very small steps. Use a timeline, fill it in as best you can.
      You may need to do these things a dozen times. Do financial planning, plan your income and your expenses. There are employers who look to employ nomadic people. Near Quartzsite, for example, employers use seasonal labor because so many people in that area can't stay all year because of the horrible summer heat. If you want this, you will take the time to do the work.
