Hi all.&nbsp; I'm Marcy (a.k.a. veganprimate).&nbsp; I am a recent member of the vandwellers yahoo group and some of you may know me from there.<br><br>I am a traveling med tech, and I realized it made no sense to continue to pay rent on an apartment that I'm hardly ever in, so I made the decision to go nomadic.&nbsp; <br><br>I bought a 93 GMC conversion van and am in the process of getting rid of stuff.&nbsp; I don't foresee having to spend a lot of time in the van at present, b/c my company gets me lodging during my job assignments..&nbsp; It would only be in between jobs, and there shouldn't be a lot of time in between jobs (unless I specifically request time off).&nbsp; So, I'm not in a hurry to outfit the interior for living...just sleeping for now.&nbsp; I'm not going to worry about getting a house battery or a propane cookstove.&nbsp; I'll do those things gradually over time.<br><br>

Welcome Marcy,<br>How long have you been vegan?&nbsp; I have been an eco-eater for 2 years.&nbsp; I primarily eat fruits and veggies with the occasional wild game or pole caught fish.&nbsp; Very little processed foods.&nbsp; Moving around constantly you will adjust to thie lifestyle quicker than some of us.&nbsp; It sounds like you are making a smart decision getting rid of the apartment.&nbsp; You will find the answer to any of your questions here.&nbsp; The people on this site are always willing to help.&nbsp; Good luck<br><br>

<FONT size=3>Hi Marcy!<BR><BR>We had a radiology tech at the RTR that was hoping to go full time with the same plan as you.&nbsp; Her employer paid for lodging so her vehicle would be for "in between." Plus she hoped to drive to some gigs instead of flying and take a more scenic route.<BR><BR>Anyways, it sounds like a great plan to me!<BR><BR>Cyndi<BR></FONT>
