During the past six months, we have been living in our RV, but we have stayed close to “home”. I bet some of you are saying, wait wasn’t Morocco your home last year? Yeah it was, so I guess I should say “where our home was before we moved to Morocco”. Yesterday, we launched our official “adventure” to travel the US in our RV. Confused yet? Here’s some background:
- From 2004 to 2011, we lived in north Georgia.
- From 2011 to 2014, we lived in Casablanca, Morocco.
- In June of 2014, we returned to the United States and purchased our RV.
Better now? Good!
So, now that we have launched, what’s in store? Here’s our plan for 2015:
January – March – WWOOFing at Thus Far Farm in Westminster, South Carolina.
April – WWOOFing at Earthen Heart Farm in Bangor, Michigan.
May – WWOOFing at Soul Farmasee in Fairfield, Iowa.
June – September 15th – Working at Crooked Creek Campground in Black Hills, South Dakota.
September 15th – Dec 23 – Working in Amazon’s Camper Force, either in Kansas or Nevada – hopefully Nevada.
This is our plan, but by this point in my life, I am well aware that plans twist and change in lots of interesting ways. So, we’ll see where life leads us in reality. However, if this plan is fulfilled in means that we will pay no campsite fees for the entire year of 2015, allowing us to chuck that money at our ever present student loans. It also means that during the second part of the year we will earn a salary on top of having a free campsite. Adding this to what we earn from our various business enterprises gives me hope that I may see even see some of those student loans eliminated by the end of this business year. To see more about our business enterprises, check out our newly updated “How do we afford this lifestyle?” page.
While this plan works well for us from a financial standpoint, it also gives us some amazing opportunities to meet fabulous people, see fabulous sights and enjoy fabulous experience. Since life is so much about the journey than arriving at the endpoint debt free, this is where my focus is going to be!
