F is for our new nomadic lifestyle - fulltiming
Fulltiming means different things to different people in the RV world.
Some fulltimers travel the country part of the year and stay somewhere stationary for the other part of the year, whether that place is a house or a seasonal campground site.
Other fulltimers claim the title because they are no longer working and are able to travel whenever they want, although they still own their home.
Others have sold their home, but store treasured belongings in a storage shed or at the home of a loved one.
Others still work their 9-5 job, but live permanently in the RV, rather than a sticks and bricks.
And still others have sold everything they own, and packed their RV with their remaining belongings and hit the road. Whether they stay somewhere for a day, a week, a month, or longer, when the urge hits, they hit the road for somewhere new.
We fall into the latter category. We are nomads who lived in one place for 25 years. Now that hubby has taken early retirement, we sold everything, packed up the RV and hit the road. We stayed the three winter months in one place, Florida, but have discovered that that's too long for us to stay in one place.
We prefer to spend from one week to one month in a location, depending on the area. Our sweet spot seems to be two weeks. Enough to see the sights, do our housework and rest some. A perfect pace for us.
