Have you ever dreamed of moving into an RV, hitting the open road, and leaving the rat-race far behind? Can you imagine a world without alarm clocks, nasty bosses, the rush-hour commute, and the daily stress of the rat-race? What would it be like to wake up to Mother Nature in all her glory? Or to spend nights with RVing friends around a campfire or BBQ, planning the next adventure?

More and more people are saying goodby to the rat race and becoming RV full-timers. This meetup group is for RV full-timers and especially for wannabe full-timers. This group is for folks who not only dream about the full-timing lifestyle but are ready to make it happen.

The purpose of this group is to :

*Help each other learn everything needed to become successful full-timers. Including how to make money on the road, choosing the right RV, where to camp for free, and everything else...

*Create lasting friendships among the members

*To creatively support each other as we work to escape the rat-race

*To have fun!

    "Hi! I just bought a 20' camper van, completely out of the blue. I love camping but it's uncomfortable during the winter plus most of the folks I used to go camping with don't do it anymore. I'm hoping to meet folks who go on trips with their campers."
