Hi Lenny Frank :-)  It's really kind of you to take people under your wing and help them to relieve their fears.  Fear is so interesting; I have no fear of so many things like snakes, bears, etc.  And I so agree with familiarity and how that eases fear. Starting out with experienced boondockers...

Hi Srae29!  Thanks so much for your reply.  This all makes so much sense to me.  I SO get what you say about feeling safe in the city, safety in numbers.  I feel the same way. This fear I have is so intense.  I remember sleeping at a friends grandparents home when I was in my late 20's.  It was...

I hope I'm answering this correctly.  Thanks so much Wabbit for your feedback.  I have such mixed feelings about weapons, still trying to figure that out.  I can't stop thinking about getting out there, from a sense of peace & adventure and also out of financial necessity.   Hope we can meet at...

tonyandkaren, Thank you so much for your great recommendation! That makes a lot of sense and my biggest hope is that I can get over the fear when I become comfortable with being out there. Take good care.

Hi,  I'm sort of piggybacking on this thread because I'm looking for the same.  I looked on the caravan section, so great to have that information, but I'm wondering if there is a way to find others to travel with.  For example, I know I want to be in the Pacific Northwest during the summer and...

Hi Everyone, Please be mindful that I'm brave enough to talk about my biggest fear.  It may sound silly, but it's real to me.  I'm looking for someone to relate so please no belittling or hate.  I'd love to know about how some of you have been able to deal with or overcome this kind of fear.  ...

Very good advice, thanks!

Thanks WanderingRose.  You're so right, there is a right time for everything and after 5 years of thinking about it and 2 years of planning, I think it's time.  I feel like staying in my unsustainable situation is just living in denial.  Nothing is going to change about my current situation...

Thanks so much!  Most of the replies I've received are warning me against moving to fast, but I really don't have much choice.  I've gone further into my situation in one of my replies if you're interested.  I appreciate the encouragement.  I do understand that I may fail big time, I'll probably...

I'm trying to figure out how to reply on a discussion board, hope this is correct.  Thanks for all the great advice.  I don't want to over dramatize my situation, but I'm out of time.  I too went from a very large home, to a 2 bedroom apt, now I live in a 500 sq ft. apt. that feels too roomy for...

I don't know how to edit a post so to clarify, I am not in a Tiny Home currently.  That was a huge typo from my very old and in need of replacement laptop.  I apologize.  I meant to say I've been interested in buying a Tiny Home for years.

Thanks so much for your recommendations.  I've always felt that I would downsize to the storage I have, but perhaps it would be good for me to put my "must haves" in my living room and figure out what I need. As far as comfort goes, I have to think that I'll be able to get used to the potential...

:huh:  I'm hoping to get some opinions from the helpful people here, please no grief, I'm trying to learn. I'm so far out of my comfort zone it's ridiculous.  I've been a Tiny Home fan for years and have decided to take a "baby step" before investing in a tiny home.  I'm thinking I should see...
