Full time RV living is a lifestyle of the
free spirited and adventurous. In the past they were referred to as
gypsies or nomads, but today they are simply called full-timers or workampers and their numbers have swelled dramatically.
Some earn a living, or supplement their income, as
mobile employees, temporary staff workers, RV home based business
owners (self-employed, independent contractors) and
with camp jobs or other jobs on the road.
These working travelers
are also known as workampers, work campers, work-campers, not yet
retired snowbirds, seasonal workers, RV workers, workers on the road
and mobile workers.
Early seni-retirement has allowed my wife and I to be
some of
the first of the baby boomer generation to enter the full-time RV
lifestyle. Over the years, from the early 1980's to date, we have traveled
extensively in our fully self contained
customized pickup camper. Kim and I began our adventure of full-time
RVing on February 1, 2006 working as volunteers for the ODFW.
We developed this Web site to provide family
members with a place to connect with us and read of our travels.

This site is also designed to be an in depth source
of information for current and future employers, as well as other
RVers, workampers, camp hosts, volunteers, caretaker hosts and full
timers.
Personal
security while traveling and living in an RV is one of the many
issues I will address as we continue developing
this site. After many years of private and
corporate security work, I will present my personal tips on staying
safe while traveling in an RV.
Trailer life has many advantages, the best of which
is mobility. Others include lower living expenses, no commuting to
work, always having everything with you and making friends with some
exceptionally nice people along the way. Not to mention living and
working in some of the most beautiful and interesting places in the
US.
Kim and I have always experienced a spiritual
awakening while exploring the great outdoors. Our numerous
camping adventures with our two daughters, over the years, have strengthened our family bond and increased
our respect for each other and for nature.
Kim and I are compelled to help to maintain and care
for our nations forests and parklands. One of our goals, while RVing this
great country, is to insure the continued preservation of these
natural areas while working to help sustain them for future
generations.
