Meet Becky
After extensive planning and saving to afford her dream of full time RVing debt free, Becky hit the road as a solo female RVer at the age of 28.
Her career as a laboratory vet technician was missing something, and she wanted more adventure and to see the country.
To afford her lifestyle, she seeks out interesting and unique seasonal jobs. She’s worked two seasons at Amazon.com, as a gift store clerk in the Badlands National Park and other temporary jobs she can find.
In this interview, she shares about her planning, selecting of a 17′ Casita travel trailer, finding work gigs and traveling as a solo female.
I don’t know about you, but I can’t help but fall in love with this charming and inspiring young lady.
Update to this story
Six months after we filmed this episode, Becky is still at it. She completed her assignment in South Dakota and is currently finishing up the peak season at Amazon in Kansas. Next up, she has a volunteer position lined up in Florida at a nature preserve.

Cherie and Chris
We watched one of your live streams from Austin a few nights back and during that time you mentioned that you didn’t hear back from many folks on whether anyone was enjoying your “Ramblings” series and that it took a lot of planning, time, work & post processing to create them. Just wanted to let you know that we excitedly wait for each new one and hope you continue doing this for a long time. Sorry we haven’t written before to encourage and thank you! (Becky – you are an inspiration to those who are looking to getting into this type of lifestyle. All our best to you!)
Cherie Ve Ard says
Thank you for letting us know you appreciate this series. They do indeed take a lot of work to put together, and they’re a lot of fun. Knowing folks are enjoying them keeps us inspired to keep creating them.. so thank you!

Hi Cherie and Chris,
Thanks for doing the interview with Becky. I have been following her blog and it’s great to get to ‘know’ her. I used to have a fiberglass ‘egg’ as my first RV. Becky has a great story and is easy to listen to. It is so generous of you to prepare and post these interviews.
Cheers,
Barrie
Cherie Ve Ard says
We loved that Becky also went with a fiberglass egg, as we were traveling in one ourselves when she first found us. She does have a great story, and is inspiring to so many!
Tina says
Great to see you on here Becky! Good to see a younger solo female hitting the road and making this work.
Love the videos, thanks for taking the time to do these : )

I also have been following Becky for a while now prior to her full timing. Her insight is light years ahead of age.
I remember Telling another friend who just bought a class B over year ago how this Gal (Becky)will go far in life whatch her soar. Thank you Becky thank you Technomadia.
Cherie Ve Ard says
Yes indeed.. we think the world is Becky’s to have as she pleases. She’s certainly done her part to arrive.
Sherry in Oregon says
Very interesting story …. and, she is quite the interview … just talks along & seems like she doesn’t even really need a lot of questions!
Cherie Ve Ard says
She’s a natural for sure! We do edit out our questions during the interview, and do a lot of editing to make sure all our Ramblings come off as just casually telling their story.
Craig Lyndes says
I’ve been following Becky’s blog for a while now. It is really nice to see and hear her in this format. What an inspiration.
Thanks Technomadia for sharing your visit with her!
Cherie Ve Ard says
