    Where I'm at...

    Yes, they are pricey.  Right now I'm comfortable with a yeti 400 and a solar panel...I know there are cheaper options but I haven't been able to grasp how the cheaper set ups work despite the countless videos I've watched and instruction I've read!  One day!!!

    Where I'm at...

    I've really been hesitant about buying a van. I think I would be more comfortable 'testing' out this lifestyle with my current vehicle. Using my current vehicle will also provide me with the emotional comfort of keeping one thing constant in this otherwise massive change I'm looking to...

    Women's Forum: What do you do for work?

    Hi, pippy! I'm not on the road yet, but currently I am employed as a social worker. I got into this field after 1st being an elementary school teacher and realizing that I enjoyed helping the students with their personal problems more than teaching them the required subjects! When I get on...

    Girls' Room Chit Chat Jumble Thread

    Love this idea!  It could be a practical way for me to transition to living off the grid.  I would worry more about my safety sleeping alone in a tent vs an enclosed vehicle, but I like that I wouldn't have to worry about buying a new vehicle right away. Please keep us posted on how this...

    Where I'm at...

    I'very decided that having an end date at my current employer will help me to see the end is near. I plan on being out of there by the end of January. That's 17 weeks, 119 some odd days. That will allow me 2 months to really clear out what i don't need and put some things into storage that...

    Woman's Forum: Potty Issues

    Headache, I'm sorry you have felt invaliated.  I know the frustrations of having a body that doesn't work like it once did.  I also know what it's like having a body that doesn't conform to most of society...restaurant booths being too tight of a fit, airplane seats too small, having to shop at...

    We broke up

    Wow, Cheli....I am amazed by your dedication to following your dreams and making a difficult decision to do so. Major props to you. I'm sure grieving the ending of this relationship will take time. So many of us stay in situations we know aren't good for us simply because it's what we know.

    Discerning who to let in and how to deal with your circle of influence

    I have told just about everyone. Most think I'm nuts...even if they don't say so directly, I can tell by their comments and questions. My dad hasn't said a word. I know he thinks it's the most ridiculous thing I've ever said. At least he hasn't been hurtful. ...I guess he's learned that if you...

    How Do You Stay Inspired?

    Although I am kind of in a honeymoon phase of just discovering this lifestyle, I can get bogged down with the details of how it's actually going to come to fruition, I too have found decluttering and downsizing inspirational.  Also, changing up my daily routine by buying less 'things' and...

    Where I'm at...

    So in retrospect, I think I had a panic attack yesterday... intense emotional flooding as a result of triggers. When I'm running on empty I'm more susceptible. In that intense moment it can be hard for me to see that what I'm experiencing isn't solely based on the present. Sort of what I...
