We’ve been living and traveling in our RV for years, but looking back, there are things we used to do that I can’t believe we ever thought were a good idea. I’m sharing the 9 major RV habits we finally stopped doing… from the maintenance mistakes that almost cost us a fortune to the travel habits that were secretly ruining our trips. And stick around for number one, because it’s the one lesson we keep having to re-learn, no matter how many miles we have under our belts.

They call Camp Fimfo the #1 campground in the U.S, but is it actually worth the price? We booked a campsite for the weekend to test all their amenities, from luxury poolside perks to over-the-top activities—and we couldn’t help but laugh when we heard it even has its own song. If you’re wondering whether it lives up to the hype or it’s just clever marketing, watch this video before you book.

Hey there! We're Joe + Kalyn!

As online entrepreneurs, we thought, "why not work from home... on the road"? So in 2019, we bought and renovated a 2005 Jayco Designer Fifth Wheel, which took us to every state in the lower 48. But the economy hit our business especially hard after the 'vid, spurring us to pivot in new directions and try different strategies, including various RV work camping jobs that helped keep us on the road and funded the biggest RV trip of our lifetime—Alaska.

We recently upgraded to a Brinkley Z3515 (yes, the RV with office space!). Subscribe to our RV living channel to find out what's next! We love boondocking in remote locations, adventuring through the national parks, and uncovering hidden gems, all while sharing the reality of full-time RV Life and making you laugh along the way.

_We participate in several affiliate programs. If you make a purchase through any of our links, we receive a small commission at no extra cost to you!_

A cozy winter night inside a warm RV. ❄️ While snow falls outside, the whole family gathers together — cooking, reading, sleeping, with their dog and cat keeping them company. Sometimes, home isn't a place… it's the people you're with. ❤️

A peaceful private campsite near Barrydale in the Western Cape, with only four stands—and when you book one, the owners don’t place other campers alongside you.

In this episode, we enjoy a quiet morning coffee beside Katryn, make traditional moerkoffie, test our new locally made camp stove prototype, prepare our favourite steak marinade and end the day with a relaxed South African braai.

🔥 In this episode:
• Private camping near Barrydale
• Testing our new camp stove prototype
• Traditional moerkoffie and morning coffee
• Our steak marinade
• A peaceful South African braai
• Slow camping with Katryn, our vintage VW Autovilla

More information about the camp stove, including ordering details, will be shared in a future episode.

This is the kind of camping we love most: privacy, open space, good coffee, simple food and an unhurried life outdoors.

If you enjoy vintage camper travel, peaceful campsites, outdoor cooking and slow living, subscribe and join us for the next adventure.

The campground formerly known as Outlanders had grown a lot. This review covers all the options for camping there. It includes the glamping tents, cabins, & rental Airstreams. If you are looking for a nice RV resort in the beautiful Shenandoah Valley, this might be it. #krvbrandambassador #campbetter #campground #campgroundreviews #campground review

Florida heat won this round — so we spent the whole weekend
inside our RV, and it turned out to be one of the most
relaxing weekends we've had all summer.

The kids claimed their own bedroom immediately, built a
cardboard restaurant stand, and served us plastic dinner
before we even finished unpacking. We opened the roof when
the rain came through, filled a vase with fresh flowers,
and just took our time.

After leaving Okotoks in a steady downpour, we finally arrive at beautiful Banff National Park! The only problem? We’re not sure if we can check into Tunnel Mountain Trailer Court early.

Thankfully, everything works out, and we get settled into our campsite for the next five nights. We show you our campsite setup, how we leveled our RV, and what it’s really like to camp in Banff on a rainy spring day.

Once the weather begins to improve, we head into the town of Banff, stop by the Visitor Centre, enjoy one of Rhonda’s favorites—Mexican food—and finish the day with our first visit to the iconic Johnston Canyon.

Join us as our Banff adventure begins!

Glamp Reviews Ep. 18 – Stop 3 on our Summer RV Resort Tour we visit "Camp Gulf" in Miramar Beach Florida. You may also know the resort as Camping on The Gulf. This is the ultimate camping on the beach in Florida! Florida beach camping is highly popular so plan early! This campground gives you the ultimate Florida camping sites on the beach. We had the most perfect weather on this week long stop. This Episode we cover the RV Resort campground showing the campground with detail. We give a complete site tour of all the sites with a map location while watching.

This beautiful campground is unique to the Emerald Coast on the panhandle of Florida with campsite directly on the sand only 50 to 100 yards from the Gulf of Mexico water edge.

In this episode we cover things we did such as viewer recommended restaurants and Gulfarium. Gulfarium has just opened the all new Dolphin Oasis which in our opinion is the best dolphin show on the emerald coast!
