Wow! She's my hero! I now am going to sell our 2+ acres and live in an RV. My husband just passed last week. We were both planning on living this way. So now I will have to do this on my own. I'm glad she spoke of security. Wow! 38 years on the road. That's amazing. I'm 67. Pretty strong willed person. Been a bus/charter driver for years so I'm used to the larger buses. But I think I want to go with no more than 25 feet. That and my 6 cats.
I am on year three of my van life, I’ve never been happier in my 48 years of life I’ve seen more I’ve done more and I don’t stress about things people normally stress about. Since living in a camper van my stress level has gone down 300%.
Right ? I’m getting ready to pull the plug, just got my Bluetti and solar panels yesterday. I’m the happiest when I tent camp thus having a van or something like this would be a step up for me.
@@khtown6505 depends on how much I move around. I like to move around a lot and mostly do gig work in different cities I choose. Also best way to really get to know a new city. Gas is my biggest bill . And I love to eat so that’s my next biggest bill. The hot spot on my phone is enough to run any streaming I wish to do .Every one’s expenses are as unique as your fingerprint. I’ve spent as little as few hundred in a month up to couple grand … just depends on how much I choose to do 😊
This lady has a great rig here. I've not given truck campers, let alone pop up truck campers much thought... Until now. Many points that truly caught my attention: the shower/bathroom plan, the 360° view (I'm a sucker for windows), accessibility to offgrid locations via truck, the height when "popped" and her take and experience in security. Thanks to this woman for giving us a glimpse of her life and her long experiences on the road, then and now. And thank you Bob for the video. I certainly found this information very helpful.
Hard to believe she’s a loner. She’s so attractive, likable, personable, and magnetic that I think she would just attract lots of people to her naturally. I admire her confidence.
@@teamcrumb that’s true for some people. But come on, loners lack a lot of social skills and the qualities I mentioned that this woman has. Magnetic, personable, social people will gravitate towards others, not away from them
@@rmh691 people can gravitate towards us but we don't have to spend our lives lapping it up. And who's to say this woman doesn't have plenty of friends? she never mentioned her private relationships she just said her husband passed and she enjoys getting on with life alone
@@teamcrumb”who’s to say she doesn’t have plenty of friends”. She said it! She said she’s a “loner”. A loner is “a person who prefers not to associate with others” You don’t understand the definition. Lol
@@rmh691 I understand that folk use words in looser terms than dictionary definitions. I'm a loner and I have a good set of folk I regard as friends. doesn't mean I spend much time with them. pretty sad when strangers start all that lol stuff and oneupmanship. You crack on with not understanding why such a nice lady chooses this way of life and I'll get on with understanding it.
She's wonderful! Thank you Charlotte, I learned so much. I agree about the dishes. I have a friend whose house flooded, and he temporarily (2 years!) while things were rebuilt, only used a bowl and a spoon and a coffee cup and a rice cooker , and he realized that's all he needed!
Heh. Yeah I moved once and it was taking me a while to unpack all my kitchen stuff and I found myself just cooking all my meals in 1 casserole pot on stove top. And worked out that's all I really need. Unless I'm cooking something fancy that's still all I use. I figure it's good practice cos this is my retirement plan
I’m also a female in a truck camper and absolutely love it! Charlotte is awesome and I would love to see how she rigged up her motion detector lights! Neat lady!
Also a full-time, senior, female, solo nomad in a truck camper. Love, love, love it. Mine is an older Lance with a dry bath. The older models have much more storage than the new ones. My fridge is huge with a separate freezer. Runs on electric, propane, or battery. Bought it for my late husband and I to travel in so it's pretty spacious for just me, my pup, and senior cat. I sacrificed a clothes closet for a custom made small wood stove. Best change ever!!! Got rid of the microwave -- never used it. Generator was too heavy and loud so it's gone too. I'm adding solar motion lights but sounds like this lady has something a bit more sophisticated. Would love to know more. I can easily climb onto my roof from inside to see what people are doing around my campsite if necessary. I can also climb through a camper window directly into the back seat of my truck if it becomes necessary to drive away. Did have an incident where two guys where on my back ladder. Scared them off in a hot second and then had the ladder removed. I urge everyone to be prepared and don't advertise your choices of protection. I'm 72 and people always ask if I'm a vet. Sometimes the way you look at people and carry yourself is enough to keep trouble at bay.
I have solar motion detection lights but they also hold a back up battery for less sunny days or weeks of charging. I can't remember the name exactly but its something like Halo. I live far out of city. I like to no ( for my safety also my pets ) if a 4 legged or 2 legged animal is lurking 😂.
@@rouxchat6033i'm not retired yet but i thought maybe of a truck camper. I missed out on a 1957 20' tow behind camper earlier this year. I'm not sure which way i want to go yet.
@@BillyLintzenich-wf7sk Renting various types of RVs is a good way to try them out before committing to a specific type. I prefer having my camper on top of my truck rather than pulling a trailer. There are also Class C RVs that are one unit. These seem very popular because you don't have to have a truck large enough to pull or carry your RV. Good luck finding the perfect match for you. 😃
She is comfortable in her own skin. Her Joy and outlook on life comes from within. To live life without any regret and to be content with the simple pleasures of nature and life and to live without any inner strife. I think this is how God wants us to enjoy this life.
Charlotte is my favorite video on your entire channel! She has everything thought out carefully. Bob, you should try to get her on your staff. She'd be an amazing contributor.
Really nice interview with Charlotte I enjoyed it I'm really interested in what people do in their free time you can't just sit inside of the heat or whatever what did they do play games go for walks and also what are some of the recipes that they use I'm working on becoming physically able and then I would like to be a nomad but like I said what you do with your free time and what are some of the recipes I want to know I mean I can see how to get a lot of things in the Vans and motorhomes and whatever but what about the other things that you're not talkin about Juanita
I've been watching your videos for years and I have to say this is my favorite set up. If I had the funds, I could do it. Charlotte has a great attitude and is very knowledgeable. Like someone previously said, she would be a great spokesperson or at least an RTR class leader. Brains, brawn and personality. Thanks, Bob, for the video, Charlotte for the tour.
I so agree with her about you use one chair, use the table. You don't need a lot of room. Even in a house, take inventory of what you actually use and you'll be surprised how little space you use!
First time I have seen the inside of this type of pop-up camper, amazing storage, plus the head room is impressive. I agree with how Charlotte uses the privacy shower tent, and her outdoor shower. I like the way she fills her water tank. Thanks for sharing Charlotte's set up.
I so appreciate her talking about natural and biodegradable personal care and cleaning products. I see so many nature lovers on the road overlooking this important factor.
Rugged individualism is what shows. I just adore her. The wisdom is almost infectious. With her husband they must have had great joy. A simple life is the happiest life. Love ❤️ her comfortable home with awesome security. She needs a channel to post periodically. I learned tons just with this interview. She has so much to pass down. What an inspiration she is. Thank you so much for sharing.
This is probably one of the best interviews I’ve seen on this channel. I love her whole set up. What a joyful person. She’s got my mentality, Less is more. I feel the same way, you only need what you need to survive and you make it comfortable for you. She is sharp! Put together and prepared. My kinda lady! Great video guys! 😃💯🙌🏼
This lady is a real expert about the life she wants to live. She also talks so clearly that you don't have to strain to hear her every word. Of course, her rig is high end and mine won't be cause I don't need that for the nomad life I want. But I so enjoyed all of her story and I learned some too that will help me with my build. Thanks Bob for all you do for the nomad life. From Central Oklahoma. See you on your next video.
Awesome! I love her positive attitude too. Through the years I’ve learned to go less and less. I had a 1,200 square feet condo by the beach, moved to the mountains to a 960 sqr, got a place to retire in Baja that’s a 30’ trailer exclusively on solar which was my big realization I don’t need much indoor space. Now I’m selling my house in California, getting a van and going camping for straight 4 months coming back to my trailer the rest of the year. I’m realizing the open space is my thing when I see how super friendly and down to earth these people are I want to be part of nomadic society. Who knows maybe I’ll do the Van life much longer since my place in Baja is off the grid it costs me nearly nothing when I’m not there and I’m retired. I just got my solar panels and power station, a few other things little by little getting ready to pull the plug. Thanks so much for such great advice, you guys rock!
I would like to add an FYI for all you nomads who don’t know how they’re going to make money on the road… I can assure you, choose a city you’d like to stop and walk into the busiest restaurant ask them if they would like a dishwasher for at least two weeks, 90% of the time they’re going to say yes, and if they say no you move onto the next restaurant somebody will say yes. You work two weeks you have enough money to last you for months, really there’s all kinds of odds and end jobs you can do. Car washes are also GREAT to get temp work.
She's so right, that's is so much better and. Keep it simple. I'm practicing it now and I have a 700 square foot house. I will continue to scale down looking forward to getting my first truck. Camper
I'm 68 and have gone through 3 downsizing/decluttering phases in the last 3 years. I still have too much stuff and wish I would have started this process years ago -- or never collected so many things to begin with! 🤦♀️
This is one strong and self-reliant woman! Her set up is perfect. I am looking to get into a pop up camper soon. My wife and I are rock climbers and the low profile and lower center of gravity make this ideal for getting up into the mountains.
As a woman, I would not choose the truck camper because it doesn’t give you an escape option if someone was outside messing with you. I need to be able to jump into the driver seat and leave. Truck campers don’t have that option and you’re pretty much stuck in your camper.
Right on! I like your style. 45 years for me. I love my truck campers, always been hard side. Lived in everything but popup. Thanks for the water pump idea. Have fun on the road. Hope our trails cross. Thanks for the interview Bob.
What an amazing woman. I love these interviews. You know the most interesting ppl Bob. I guess you never thought you would end up being such a guru but I find you much more authentic than any of the Russell Brand, Jordan Peterson types. You are doing good work here Bob, you are a good man.
@16:00 her life experience: probation officer, child abuse investigator. wow. On top of being a backcountry horsewoman and 38 year veteran nomad. She should write a book!
I love that you addressed security. I’m a single woman who lives alone and also worked in corrections. I have several dogs and other measures to help me feel safe. If I stayed in a camper I would definitely have my dogs with me. I have 3 Pit Bull mixes and my “motion detector” Pip a small dog who is a GREAT watch dog.
I agree with you 100% on the security while out camping by yourself...... My dad and brothers were military and law enforcement so they make absolutely sure I am secure when I venture out on my own..... I too am a loner and love being on my own...... No tents for me cause the crazies are everywhere ..... Love your camper
As a neophyte nomad, my hat is OFF to this young lady. Much respect due. Anyone that's lived nomadically for that long has such a wealth of experience at it that you can't help but be drawn to them. Really, really nice rig. She may have me sold on a truck w/pop-up too. 😀
I loved my palomino pop up camper but the one thing they are not is a big thing for full timers.. they really are only 3 season campers. Love my hard side for 4 seasons.
Wow!! Bob. Thankyou and Thankyou to Charlotte. This Lady has it totally together with wonderful advice. You could not have given your viewers a more valuable gift, Thankyou.
Charlotte, I'm in my third year full timing and I think you bring what some people might describe s a suburban attitude out into the wilds. Polite, inquisitive and not afraid to explore. Happy camping!
I never considered a truck camper after seeing the cramped quarters inside my friend's 1990-ish rig. Wow, have they ever changed! I can't believe I'm saying this, but I love everything about Charlotte's. She has created a cozy, beautiful home, not only physically but spiritually and mentally, as well. I'm a true believer in if it feeds your soul, do it; Charlotte is a fine example of that.
What a great setup. We have a Palomino Pop Up too and we love it. You don't need a lot in life. It is more about the memories that we create. We really enjoyed this video. Mary💕Fred
I admire all this ladys to take the risk to start over, i as a younger woman don't think i have the courage to do it. Also i see a lot of true in her comment that when you live in a normal home you tend to stay still and maybe isolate, this proves how important are the social connections for mental health. Greetings from Colombia 🇨🇴.
I have a 32 ft. Aerbus (no slide outs) and I have great admiration for this lady. I think I could live in a 24 ft. motorhome but doubt that I could manage to live in a truck camper. She's a more hardy soul than I am. God bless her for many happy years of RVing.
What a great attitude and spirit Charlotte has, and a very nice setup. With her RV ownership experience, she could answer questions and offer consults regarding different products.
Charlett is one smart cookie. She is a real expert on camping in many different vehicles. So happy and healthy in the open air. She sure doesn't carry anything that she doesn't need. Thanks Bob for this interview and tour.
Very impressive lady…..when I think of folks that like being alone, I just assume men, but obviously that’s not always the case. 38 years of this lifestyle, she has it down.
Thanks Bob for this interview and tour of Charlotte’s set up and her expertise. Her background and knowledge base is inspiring. Love the go sun cooker. Please see if there’s more information about her security set up, if she’s willing to share that. Maybe a follow up video??😊 This is one of your best! ❤
My sister married a doctor/hospital administrator. They lived in a 10,000 square foot McMansion. The water bill alone for their little landscape sprinkler system was $700.00 a month. Their heat and a/c was more than my annual income. The carbon footprint was huge but they never gave that any thought. My house is small and comfortable. I am building a schoolie conversion now. So much fun.
Love the rig it looks like it would fit everything I need to make a little home on wheels. I wish you could have shown the truck. I’m not good at guessing what size it is but I have an idea that it’s on the larger size. Security is critical for everyone. Safe travels 👍

She’s probably in my top three people Bob has interviewed. Her joy of being a nomad is beautiful.
I agree!
I agree 👍
Amen to that!
Same! She exudes joy and positivity! Love her!
I am another one say _agree_
Wow! She's my hero! I now am going to sell our 2+ acres and live in an RV. My husband just passed last week. We were both planning on living this way. So now I will have to do this on my own. I'm glad she spoke of security. Wow! 38 years on the road. That's amazing. I'm 67. Pretty strong willed person. Been a bus/charter driver for years so I'm used to the larger buses. But I think I want to go with no more than 25 feet. That and my 6 cats.
I'm sorry for your loss.
I hope you (and your cats) love RV life!
Do it! I truly believe your husband would want you to! And he will love that you did!
Oh wow, you and l are on the same path. I too, just lost my husband and l plan on hitting the road.
I am sorry for your loss Ms Kathy. I hope things are better now.
Take no more than 2 cats.
No doubt in my mind...she's packing heat along with those motion sensors.
Hell yea good on her
You know it. And keeping it on the downlow like a pro, not strutting around town with a Glock on your hip.
LOL, I said cop or CIA at the start of the video, something about her made me think that.
I agree. She has a lovely home!
Most definitely

Just wondering what you average cost per month is?
@@khtown6505 depends on how much I move around. I like to move around a lot and mostly do gig work in different cities I choose. Also best way to really get to know a new city.

The hot spot on my phone is enough to run any streaming I wish to do .Every one’s expenses are as unique as your fingerprint. I’ve spent as little as few hundred in a month up to couple grand … just depends on how much I choose to do 😊
You give me hope
This lady has a great rig here. I've not given truck campers, let alone pop up truck campers much thought... Until now. Many points that truly caught my attention: the shower/bathroom plan, the 360° view (I'm a sucker for windows), accessibility to offgrid locations via truck, the height when "popped" and her take and experience in security. Thanks to this woman for giving us a glimpse of her life and her long experiences on the road, then and now. And thank you Bob for the video. I certainly found this information very helpful.
I loved the height as-well, 10 ft when its popped up… great set up
Yes i have a van and seeing this is changing my mind
We've had several pop ups but they always end up leaking before they are even a year old.
Truck campers are one of the cheaper solutions if you need a rig to stand up in really
@@jenniferdavis6608 I was wondering about that so thanks !

I would definitely subscribe to her channel. So much experience and wisdom to share!
If Charlotte had her own channel she could become a target as some others have been.
A target? @@janet1744

Charlotte sure is with it, she is so right about everything, bless her heart for enjoying every lick of her life!
Honestly most genuine informative pleasant lady ever.

I so agree with her about you use one chair, use the table. You don't need a lot of room. Even in a house, take inventory of what you actually use and you'll be surprised how little space you use!
For sure. My two thousand sq ft home and I spend almost all my time in living room about 250 sq.
agree. i am coziest in my room so like 250sf is doable. Lived in a 300 sf space that was two rooms and loved it! good light and privacy!
What a great rig and Charlotte is a lovely lady with a wealth of nomad experience to share. Thanks Bob!

What a statement...to spend quality time with myself. What a world it would be if we were all so resourceful and self reliant.
No kidding!
Awesome! I love her positive attitude too. Through the years I’ve learned to go less and less.

This lady should do a lecture series. She knows her onions.
"I love hiking in the desert and just spend quality time by myself." Love her perspective ❤
Bless her for doing this lifestyle for so long!
This woman can teach us all, all. Love her.
Right on! I like your style. 45 years for me. I love my truck campers, always been hard side. Lived in everything but popup. Thanks for the water pump idea. Have fun on the road. Hope our trails cross. Thanks for the interview Bob.
What an amazing woman. I love these interviews. You know the most interesting ppl Bob. I guess you never thought you would end up being such a guru but I find you much more authentic than any of the Russell Brand, Jordan Peterson types. You are doing good work here Bob, you are a good man.
@16:00 her life experience: probation officer, child abuse investigator. wow. On top of being a backcountry horsewoman and 38 year veteran nomad. She should write a book!
What a beautiful camper! And I love her joy and enthusiasm for the nomad life! I really enjoyed this interview!!
Cheers
That bathroom is so awesome! Holy crap what a roomy little spot. Has to be one of my favorite setups
She is amazing! I love her knowledge and her love of being a nomad. I’m a loner and I can relate so much with her. Thank you for being so special.
This was such an enjoyable interview. Charlotte just has an amazing spirit about her. I rarely comment on these videos, but I am so impressed by her!
Bravo and thanks Charlotte keep living and loving and spreading kindness.
Thanks for sharing your wonderful home Charlotte!! You go girl!!
I love that you addressed security. I’m a single woman who lives alone and also worked in corrections. I have several dogs and other measures to help me feel safe. If I stayed in a camper I would definitely have my dogs with me. I have 3 Pit Bull mixes and my “motion detector” Pip a small dog who is a GREAT watch dog.
I agree with you 100% on the security while out camping by yourself......
My dad and brothers were military and law enforcement so they make absolutely sure I am secure when I venture out on my own.....
I too am a loner and love being on my own......
No tents for me cause the crazies are everywhere .....
Love your camper
Thanks for sharing your home with us. It’s a great setup. Thanks Bob!
As a neophyte nomad, my hat is OFF to this young lady. Much respect due. Anyone that's lived nomadically for that long has such a wealth of experience at it that you can't help but be drawn to them. Really, really nice rig. She may have me sold on a truck w/pop-up too. 😀
Me tooo
I loved my palomino pop up camper but the one thing they are not is a big thing for full timers.. they really are only 3 season campers. Love my hard side for 4 seasons.
Wow!! Bob. Thankyou and Thankyou to Charlotte. This Lady has it totally together with wonderful advice. You could not have given your viewers a more valuable gift, Thankyou.
Rad lady! She has more storage than most tiny homes. Unusual bathroom inside but doable.
Beautiful lady inside and out! Thanks again Bob for this great interview. So inspiring!
Very nice and informative! Thank you
Charlotte, I'm in my third year full timing and I think you bring what some people might describe s a suburban attitude out into the wilds. Polite, inquisitive and not afraid to explore. Happy camping!
I never considered a truck camper after seeing the cramped quarters inside my friend's 1990-ish rig. Wow, have they ever changed! I can't believe I'm saying this, but I love everything about Charlotte's. She has created a cozy, beautiful home, not only physically but spiritually and mentally, as well. I'm a true believer in if it feeds your soul, do it; Charlotte is a fine example of that.
Wow 38 years rv living, nice and beautiful plus a big inspiration. 😊 Thank you
Love her set up, and her energy
What a great setup. We have a Palomino Pop Up too and we love it. You don't need a lot in life. It is more about the memories that we create. We really enjoyed this video. Mary💕Fred
Great Independent Woman! I love being a loner, but aid have my trusty companion with me! ✌️💗
Totally agree with harsh chemicals in our cleaning supplies. She's an inspiration!
I admire all this ladys to take the risk to start over, i as a younger woman don't think i have the courage to do it. Also i see a lot of true in her comment that when you live in a normal home you tend to stay still and maybe isolate, this proves how important are the social connections for mental health. Greetings from Colombia 🇨🇴.
That woman is an ACE!
Respect!
Beutifull
Brave and happy woman
Awesome Video of an Awesome Lady, Brother Bob!!!
I have a 32 ft. Aerbus (no slide outs) and I have great admiration for this lady. I think I could live in a 24 ft. motorhome but doubt that I could manage to live in a truck camper. She's a more hardy soul than I am. God bless her for many happy years of RVing.
What a great attitude and spirit Charlotte has, and a very nice setup. With her RV ownership experience, she could answer questions and offer consults regarding different products.
A Great interview. A very nice lady.
Charlett is one smart cookie. She is a real expert on camping in many different vehicles. So happy and healthy in the open air. She sure doesn't carry anything that she doesn't need. Thanks Bob for this interview and tour.
Very impressive lady…..when I think of folks that like being alone, I just assume men, but obviously that’s not always the case. 38 years of this lifestyle, she has it down.
I'm in a 28 foot RV right now, but I love her setup, wish I had the money to get a set up like that....
You're my new hero Charlotte!
Thanks Bob for this interview and tour of Charlotte’s set up and her expertise. Her background and knowledge base is inspiring.
Love the go sun cooker.
Please see if there’s more information about her security set up, if she’s willing to share that.
Maybe a follow up video??😊
This is one of your best!
❤
That is one extraordinary woman. She knows how to live well… for her!
New subscriber, thank you for the show. I'm looking to learning more from you show
It's referred to as his channel, I believe . 🚔🌝
Charlotte is my new hero! I love her attitude of being proactive rather than reactive!
Thank for sharing, her set up looks amazing, a great consideration for a tall person too.
This is one of the coolest camper trailers I have ever seen! She has such a sweet spirit to her. I hope I am still that happy in my elderly years.
Love her joy and confidence!
My sister married a doctor/hospital administrator. They lived in a 10,000 square foot McMansion. The water bill alone for their little landscape sprinkler system was $700.00 a month. Their heat and a/c was more than my annual income. The carbon footprint was huge but they never gave that any thought.
My house is small and comfortable. I am building a schoolie conversion now. So much fun.
Yes, thank you Charlotte for your story!! We loved it😁😁!! Ron M.
I really like how we celebrate all the different builds and encourage people to live the way they want in what they want.
Charlotte is a wonderful soul..
What a delightful interview with a gem of a woman.
Awesome! You go girl. Love your enthusiasm for life!!!
She's smart and confident (and has a brain like an engineer); her bubbly nature is uplifting. Nice video - thanks for sharing...
Excellent video Bob , interesting information, good motivation for us , thanks
Love the rig it looks like it would fit everything I need to make a little home on wheels. I wish you could have shown the truck. I’m not good at guessing what size it is but I have an idea that it’s on the larger size. Security is critical for everyone. Safe travels 👍
A well grounded independent woman!
What a lovely lovely lady and super nice vehicle / home. Thank you both for the tour!
Glad she mentioned security and motion sensors. "When Seconds Count, the Police are Only Hours Away." You are your own first responder. Be prepared!
What a lovely, lovely Lady. So happy for her. She’s figured it out for sure.
