FAR OUT #111 ~ Early Days on the Road: Adjusting to a New Life

Episode Description

After a few weeks on the road in Dorothy, our truck camper and new home, we check in for an update on how things are going. We share some of the ups and downs of this new life, the surprises, the shenanigans and why we are eternally grateful to be moving on from snowy, cold Colorado!

If you've ever wondered what it would be like to leave it all behind and hit the road...this episode is for you.

Listen and explore:

  • A progress report on Dorothy’s first big road trip (her mpg almost made Alasdair cry)

  • How a tree ripped off our solar panel a week after it was installed

  • Early surprises and realities of road life

  • What you shouldn’t do when you are in freezing temperatures in a truck camper

  • Driving off the deep end – why moving into our truck camper during the onset of winter and heading to Colorado was not the easiest move

  • Comfort and security vs. meaning and fulfillment -the trade offs we’ve experienced in living the way we do

  • The differences between Alasdair’s and Julie-Roxane’s ideal sleeping spot
