Is Full Time what you expected?

When we were weekend and vacation campers, I used to dream about full timing. We were lucky enough to get our chance seven years ago.

Looking back, has is this lifestyle been everything you dreamed of?

We know for us, that in many cases, the lifestyle is very different.

Please note: I said very DIFFERENT, not worse!

This has been the time of our lives. I can't imagine living any other way!

    Love the lifestyle and will do it again soon.
    Once it's in your blood, the lure of the road continues to haunt you. It's an affliction. :)

    Full timing for 5 years and it's exactly what we expected and more. We have put 110,000 miles on our RV. Still have a list of places we want to see or return to. Perfect? No. There are times when we get frustrated but there were frustrating times at the stick house too! Different in a good way!
