Can I live as a vandweller?

I have CFS and a a few other chronic conditions. Life is more simple and less stressful, on the road, after one gets the wrinkles ironed out.

I've been back in a house for two years. My health has deteriorated drastically. I'll be back on the road in October. Can't wait to feel like me, again.

With planning, you can do this.

I didn't respond to your poll
 
I have severe Sjogren's and the fatigue is apparently quite similar to that which comes with Chronic Fatigue as well as a laundry list of other debilitating symptoms. I am taking early retirement and doing this now because I don't know how long I will have to do it. But, I have a spouse who will be driving when I can't. I think you need to make sure to have a plan for when the exhaustion hits. It would be incredibly dangerous to drive. I know that I can't stay awake when it hits no matter how hard I try. I would suggest getting out and trying for a few weeks before comitting.
 
You could do like I did with a car and tent, a rooftop carrier full of camping stuff and the desire for adventure, that's when I drove from central NY to my first RTR. I kept looking ahead, my headlights always looking west, and when i crossed the Missisippi River in St Louis, I just knew greater things were to come.

I do not regret my decision to just pick up and go, I have learned much.

You, my friend, have the same courage and desire as the many other 1st timers who thought the same thing Im sure.
and now you are here amongst them. 
You are not alone. The rest is up to you!


Go for it.
