I've been lurking here a few years. I dig the (idea of the) van lifestyle but really would like to have a small place of my own to garden and raise a few rabbits and chickens. But I've lived in an apt. all my adult life (I'm now 66, single, no kids/pets) and don't have any experience with the "homestead" life.
I came across this site ( https://wwoofusa.org/ ) and was wondering if any of you folks were familiar with it (?)
I was thinking it could tie in well with van-living and also my desire to get back to the land.
Is it possible (feasible) to just travel around and spend weeks at a time parked at a WWOOF farm- helping them while at the same time getting on-the-job training of "rural skills" ?
My one fear of van-life is that I'd end up just sitting in a little metal box in the middle of the desert bored and lonely.
Right now I just sit in this damned apt. surfing the web for 6 hours a day and then move to a different chair and watch TV...then go to bed (rinse and repeat) day after day.
There's GOT TO BE MORE...........
Any comments welcomed................
