Hello, I'm new here

orangeclouds · Oct 3, 2019

Hello! Figured I'd introduce myself here. My name is Michael aka orangeclouds. I'm a part time vanlifer who spends 2-3 months a year on the road, but the current trip I'm on seems like that number is about to get stretched. I love this lifestyle and being able to travel all over the country too much to wanna stop, but I'm gonna need to collect more funds eventually! I'll probably take a seasonal job somewhere to do so. Anyways, I'm a big fan of Bob's videos and every other person I've met living this lifestyle has been great. So I'm glad I found the forum here during my search to find out where the rtr will be held in 2020. Peace and love y'all!

Most of our rules boil down to two simple over-riding principles: 1) What you post should provide good information (like your introductory post), and 2) Any response to someone else's post should make them feel glad they are part of this forum community.

Hi Michael, welcome!

Where are you wandering now and what are you driving?

I'm currently at Lake Cotchiti, NM and have been in NM for the past week or so. I drive a 2000 Ford e-150.

Hi Orangeclouds, Welcome... Where I grew up we used to have lots of orange groves. Seeing your username reminds me of those memories from when I was a kid, the smell of orange blossoms, and the windfall wars we'd have while playing in the groves.
