My husband and I have lived in a van and traveled around the world for 7 years. We work on the road and have no plans to retire.

• My husband and I decided to live and work out of a camper van for one year.
• That one year quickly became seven, and we have traveled outside the US.
• We love working on the road and have no plans to retire.

Many of the conversations ended with something like, “You’re doing it right traveling while you’re young and still able to enjoy it before your knees are too worn out.”

Between in-person conversations and YouTube comments on our videos, we have heard that statement in various forms hundreds of times now. When someone in their 70’s approaches you and says, “Wow, I wish I had done what you’re doing,” you take it to heart.

The more it’s repeated, the more seriously we take the advice, and the older we get, the more urgent the challenge becomes.

Maybe one day we will retire, but right now, we have no plans to. We’re already living the life we always dreamed of.
