Hi, my first post on this forum, been following several of your travels on youtube and related sites. I'm getting to that point of throwing the towel in and going on the road for the foreseeable future.
Like many others, I have made some bad decisions, spent way to much money, don't really have an income so I'll have to rely on selling my stuff and odd jobs until SS kicks in or an inheritance eventually.
So after many failed relationships and business ventures, I'm stuck in some pretty harsh depression. My dog "Otto" and sparing my mother from losing a fourth child keeps me alive. But otherwise, I'm done trying and find it hard to maintain a home and pay bills. As some of you know, it's a daily struggle between meltdowns and keeping a gun out of my mouth. And for everyone that suggests therapy, been there, can't afford it and don't want to be drugged up every day. I've yet to find my place in this life and it leaves me with many regrets. I realize the past is over, but the thoughts remain. I need to escape to clear my mind.
I've been researching trailers and Class C's. Leaning towards a trailer as a home base and using the truck to explore.
I still have to "cut the cord", sell all my stuff, reduce or payoff debt (somehow). Lots of steps ahead to make this a reality. I am an avid outdoorsman, so pulling trailers and four wheeling is second nature. Being in desolate areas is not intimidating, but inviting, and being resourceful comes natural. I'm pretty self sufficient and a bit of a survivalist with many skills. To earn some road money, I have some good experience. From electrical, plumbing, light automotive, equipment operator, creative writer, certified drone pilot, photography, etc. I may have an offer of part time work in Arizona, so I might end up there after I take my time seeing some free BLM and forestry sites, but I still have to take the first steps in planning and selling wisely.
I'm also considering recording and sharing my adventures as many do. I have a very unique domain for the website I will share later. I hope to also create a hub of helping those in need and struggling with life.
Looking forward to re-inventing my future and meeting many of you on those dusty roads. I'm very open to suggestions, advice, requests, and discussion.
Thank you, and have a great day.
