The Story Behind the Story

After a year living in my camper named "The Betty", I've decided to take those adventures and make it a lifestyle.   From the first day of the journey to the launch of my business I've kept a journal here at "Miles in the Mirror".

Putting It All Together

The Slim Down

The month leading up to my departure was a busy one.  The project I had been working on was closing in on mechanical completion, which is always a hectic time.  On top of that, at the end of October I moved out of my condo and into the RV.  Anything that couldn't fit in the rig went on craigslist, the rest was going in storage.  The slim down had begun.  At this point, the majority of people still had no idea of my plans for the trip, they just thought I was crazy for my choice in housing.

Two things amazed me during this month,  the endless amount of storage an RV has!  And how much stuff you really don't need.  I managed to liquidate quite a bit of my belongings, which in turn, fattened my gas
money fund, which in turn, was awesome. Still, there were some things I wanted to keep or that didn't sell.  My parents, in full support of my "cast off", offered up some storage space in the old horse barn...free of charge. 

So if I hadn't already past the point of no return by now, this certainly solidified it.  I had successfully jammed everything I needed into a 240 square foot, rolling home.

I guess, we should stop worrying on what other people will say about the decisions that we make. After all, we should always be after the stuff that will make us happy and effective. If people think that you are crazy in your choice in housing then so be it! They don't see the perspective you see and there is no need for you to explain everything to them. As long as you know what's right, then you should be aligned with your personal goal!
