When my husband and I became empty nesters, we sold our house and moved into an RV. We now live on the open road full time.

"Two years ago, my husband and I sold our home of 24 years to live full-time on the road in an RV. We've made our way from South Florida up to the Pacific Northwest, over to Maine, and back down to Georgia. From learning what to do when things break on the road to seeing views that make me feel like I'm living in a calendar, I've loved every minute of this adventure."

"It took me a while to figure out what my life looked like as an empty nester When my kids left for college, it was a bit of a shell-shock. I was lost as an empty nester. Sure, I had the freedom to do whatever I wanted, and that was exhilarating. It was also unsettling. I had to figure out who I was when I wasn't caring for my children."

An empty-nester couple sold their 24-year home two years ago to live full-time in an RV. They traveled from South Florida to the Pacific Northwest, Maine, and Georgia, enjoying scenic views and learning to handle breakdowns on the road. The move followed a period of family losses and the realization that life can change quickly, which motivated them to pursue travel while healthy. Their RV experience began with a rented RV for their 20th wedding anniversary in late 2020, which they enjoyed, and then they experimented with several setups before committing to full-time life on the road.
