What does it take to transition from weekend warriors to full-time RVers with two teens? In this Community Spotlight episode, Jenn sits down with Ashley and Steve from Campfires and Motors to hear how a military family traded their Delaware home for life on the road.

With nearly a full year of full-time RV life under their belts, Steve and Ashley share the realities of downsizing, homeschooling on wheels, and building a YouTube channel. They know RV life isn't just a long-term vacation. To make it last, they create routines, manage weight limits, and find creative ways to help teens stay connected every day.

Learn How:

  • Selling your house and downsizing can be surprisingly liberating
  • Former military skills translate to RV skills
  • Teens adapt to RV life when homeschooling is their norm
  • RV and truck weight limits can really affect your travels
  • Extended boondocking requires creative strategies
  • Income can be supplemented with content creation
  • Finding socialization opportunities for teens takes intentional planning
  • Rallies connect you with community
