In this episode, Kimberly talks with Jennifer Schillaci about her family’s full-time RV journey, which began in 2013 after she initially resisted the idea, and has continued into its 14th year. She and her husband Frank travel for RV Roofing Solutions, primarily attending rallies and doing installs, while also running the Learn to RV ecosystem, including a podcast (three episodes weekly), free community groups, a rally calendar, and an upcoming course launching May 15, plus planned merch. She describes the realities of RV life—breakdowns, shifting travel patterns, and post-2020 challenges in making friends, especially as a mom in her 50s with teens. Jennifer emphasizes that connection and community are central to sustaining the lifestyle, encourages intentional friendliness, and explains how virtual tools and local activities help families and kids stay connected.
