replying to @obligatraveler @obligatraveler @chasethewildone We stayed on a boat in San Fran and it was so much fun. It was a small sailboat. I'm not sure that I could do something that tiny but perhaps something a bit larger. #GenXTravel

replying to @GenXTraveler @GenXTraveler @SloaneDoggg Same! We have been trying to take 10 minutes every morning away from our phones to appreciate where we are and the beautiful (or not so beautiful) view! #GenXTravel

Yeah, shoes are the biggest obstacles. I try to wear a pair that can be dressy or used on a hike. It's tough! #GenXTravel https://t.co/UdZ8r1EIvy

replying to @GenXTraveler @GenXTraveler @obligatraveler Ahh I'm so jealous! We need to plan a boat stay somewhere soon! That morning view had to be worth the small space! #GenXTravel

replying to @GenXTraveler @GenXTraveler @chasethewildone We went camping in a VW bus a few summers ago. It was great - and it had an air conditioning unit for when we slept! #GenXTravel

replying to @TravelFuelsLife @TravelFuelsLife I understand. We were considering renting our home rather than selling with the upcoming move. Despite not feeling attached to the house I wouldn't want to see it trashed or my gardens neglected. #GenXTravel

replying to @MarceaCazel @MarceaCazel @GenXTraveler The A/C is really where it's at. We just turn on the fan and get in our swimsuits. Where did you travel to? #genXTravel

Q5. Building out your own van can be time consuming and we are not all handy. If you are living the #VanLife, did you build out the rig yourself? If you were to choose #VanLife would you build yourself, pay someone to do it, or buy an already converted van? #GenXTravel

If you are living #vanlife did you build out the van yourself or pay someone else to build it? Maybe you bought it already converted? If you considered this lifestyle which would you choose? #GenXTravel

A5. I might have some of the work done but leave some things undone so I could put my stamp on it. #GenXTravel #VanLife

A5: With zero experience my partner Shawn and I build out our Van 100% on our own! It's definitely not easy (we almost killed each other) but I do believe most anyone can do it! It just takes a lot of patience and Youtube 😂 #vanlife #GenXTravel

#GenXTravel A5: It would have to be converted. I am #MechanicallyChallenged either that or I'm just too lazy to learn. I don't enjoy tinkering.

replying to @GenXTraveler @GenXTraveler Oooh that's a brilliant idea! #GenXTravel

replying to @GenXTraveler @GenXTraveler This is ideal haha. Especially for those pesky cabinets! #Vanlife #GenXTravel

#GenXTravel A5) I love watching #vanlife renovation videos. I’d like to customize and add my own decorative touch. I’d save the mechanics, electrics, etc. to the professionals

replying to @sydneywolf10 @sydneywolf10 I wouldn't say it's hard but it definitely has its challenges. Having a puppy keeps you outside and exercising! What time of year will you be leaving Texas? #GenXTravel #Vanlife

replying to @TravelFuelsLife @TravelFuelsLife Without a van that's for sure 😂 #vanlife #GenXTravel

replying to @chasethewildone @chasethewildone A5: You have met Roy. He could design it, and then we'd have to hire someone to do the work. #GenXTravel

Q6. If you are living the #VanLife, how do make money on the road? If you're considering it, how might you make money on the road? #GenXTravel
chasethewildone
replying to @Mrs_Oz @Mrs_Oz Oh man, can you imagine it? You would have the most efficient and home-y van #vanlife has ever seen. #GenXTravel
GenXTraveler
A6. One of the reasons I blog is to be more location independent. I would continue this if I were living the #vanlife. #GenXTravel
chasethewildone
A6: We make money to support #vanlife a few ways: Online Virtual Assistant, local Brand Ambassador jobs (there are tons during the summer), and one day my blog might support our travels! #GenXTravel
GenXTraveler
replying to @chasethewildone @chasethewildone I have those every now and then. lol. #GenXTravel
chasethewildone
replying to @SloaneDoggg @SloaneDoggg @GenxtravelC Haha glad it was easy for you! Granted you have the whole van to yourself! #Vanlife #GenXTravel

#GenXTravel #vanlife A6: I own a web development business. I'd need Internet access for sure. I can do it from the road, but do need good quality and dependable wi-fi.

A6: #Vanlife would be great as a digital nomad. I have a FT 9-5 job, but can do it anywhere there's an internet connection. #GenXTravel

replying to @chasethewildone @chasethewildone I guess I would use my disability pay and augment with my web design and typing. Himself would drive. and retire I suppose and then set up lil soccer matches wherever he went, or referee all over creation. #GenXTravel

If you living #VanLife what drew you to this lifestyle? If this is something that you dream of doing, what is the appeal of it for you? #GenXTravel

replying to @sydneywolf10 @sydneywolf10 Ooh I don't think it's easier or more difficult butttt it's so different! All the solo ladies I know LOVE doing solo #vanlife. I say you head to big bend or the Southwest! We might be caravanning to Baja Mexico and you are welcome to join if we do! #GenXTravel
chasethewildone
A7: The appeal of #vanlife to me is the ability to go where ever I want at any time! I've never been one that likes to sit still and Vanlife allows me to move my home every couple days! Plus we have pups and traveling abroad seemed like quite the task! #GenXTravel
GenXTraveler
A7. For me the appeal would be travel for less and live for less. #VanLife #GenXTravel

Q8. #VanLife seems like it would be reserved for outdoorsy lifestyles rather than urban but there are people choosing #VanLife in an urban setting. Are you or would you be an urban or nature vandweller? #GenXTravel

A8. I think I would be a combination of city and beach. Those are my desired types of travel anyway. #GenXTravel #VanLife
chasethewildone
A8: I love both the urban setting and the outdoorsy setting in #Vanlife! We went to Philly last year, had a Philly Cheesesteak and then moved on to Acadia National Park! I love having the option of either! That way I never miss my city life too much! #GenXTravel

#GenXTravel A8) I’d #vanlife in urban areas. Just think how much you’d save on pricey city hotel prices
