[size=small][font=verdana, geneva, lucida,] Do to the fact that my area is being gentrified and my taxes have been going up dramatically every year for the last 4 years I have been thinking seriously about selling my house before I lose it but I would not be able to get another house outright for what I could sell it for :idea: but I could get a helluva nice van, I'm a telecommuter so I would still have an income but without 70% of my current expenses I would only have to worry about food, gas, money for motel's on the rare occasion I run into bad weather and occasional repairs to said van .[/font][/size]
I may do a test run, like get a cheap used camper trailer, hitch it to my SUV and go out for a few weeks or months at a time when saving up a few hundred on my paypal debit card from odd jobs(as I still have bills to pay), when I see they are having meetup's or gatherings within a few hours of me I could head that way to learn more by being around them. and it would be a no risk investment as even if I end up not going into the lifestyle a camper is cool to have and would be better than the tent that I recreationally camp in every year that's starting to get ratty looking. And I see them on craigslist all the time I live in Texas so there is always some lifelong outdoorsmen dyeing of old age who's wife is wanting to get that thing out of her back yard lol,
[size=small][font=verdana, geneva, lucida,]And if I end up liking the life I can sell my house and go all in and buy a decked out 4X4 camper van.[/font][/size]

[font=verdana, geneva, lucida,][size=small] [/font][/size]does that sound like a viable way to dip my toe in ? :-/
