I'm very interested in your experience moving to an RV (and what life has been like since the move). Do you have any links to articles you've written about it?
I'm revisiting the budget in the next post, as it's been more expensive than I expected in some ways, and less expensive in others. Overall, it evens out and I'm saving a ton over living in Mountain View (though, admittedly, I was living pretty luxe in Mountain View with a 1000 sq ft house a few blocks from downtown). More importantly, every day is a comfort-zone smashing experience, which I'm convinced is good for mind, body and soul.
As I mentioned, I'm at Slab City, which is a truly unique American experience. Salvation Mountain is here, along with hundreds of RVers and campers, all squatting on government land and living wholly off the grid and seemingly getting along just fine. I don't think I've ever seen more solar panels in one place; and I've visited the Google campus. I do worry about where some of these folks are putting their wastewater...many of the RVs here have not moved in years, and there are no public restrooms for miles around, nor are there septic hookups. Anyway, obviously Slab City is worth blogging about, so I'll be posting about that soon, as well, along with millions of pictures.
very interesting story- loved the blog, but please refrain from using 'twatting' and 'flicking'. If you must, use 'tweeting'. 'twat' has negative connotations in many places, and flicking is just lame. :)
