We’ve been completely over-joyed with the NuRVer’s Days of Nu 2 Gathering taking place this weekend in Gonzales, TX. The people here are amazing, and we simply have not had the time to make daily posts about the event. However, Sara Janssen seems to have found the time, and is making some awesome posts each […]
Life on the Road
Days of the Nu 2 – Follow Along !
For those of you unable to attend the NuRVers.com Days of the Nu 2 this week, first of all.. our deepest sympathy. You are missing one heck of a gathering of full time location independent travelers on wheels. We are expecting a dozen rigs and a few tents to join us here in Gonzales, TX. […]
Nomads Rolling In
Ever since we hit the road together almost 3 years ago (wow – time flies!), I’ve dreamed of being part of a nomadic community – we all roll on our own paths, and have convergences from time to time to share stories, resources and friendship. After an initial search for such a community, I was […]
Living via Solar Power in an RV (Our Oliver Travel Trailer Install – 2008-2011)
2012 Update: This post was written based off our last RV – a 17′ Oliver Travel Trailer that was designed for being off grid. After 3 years of full time travel in the Oliver, in June 2011 we moved into a 35′ vintage bus to create something more versatile. We are in the process of […]
Technomadic Essentials: Wine-In-A-Box
We have a lot of gear and technology that we consider essential to our technomadic lifestyle. It is hard to imagine traveling like we do without our computers, our iPhones, our solar panels, or our onboard media server.
But today I want to at last reveal what we consider to be our most essential piece of onboard equipment. In some ways, it embodies the pinacle of human technological innovation.
Nothing we have on board can match the overwhelming utility and versatility of… Wine-In-A-Box!

US Census 2010: Counting Nomads
The timing was perfect, just as I was researching how full time travelers should make sure they get counted in US 2010 Census, a census enumerator shows up at our campsite in Austin, TX. With a home that moves and no place that we consider a single home base, we were curious as to where […]
Vibram FiveFingers – Those Funky Toe Glove Shoes
Many years ago, in what seems like a galaxy far far away – a friend posted about these funky toe glove shoes he had been wearing and loving. My first thought was ‘Eeeeeewwww… I hate wearing flip flops and having things between my toes. Why on earth would I want something between all my toes??’. […]
Pondering New Challenges
This coming May, we will mark our third nomadiversary of being on the road together. Over the past three years we have vastly simplified our lives. We have experimented with, refined, and tweaked our little RV into our ideal travel vessel. We have become skilled at off-grid living. We have learned to set a travel […]
