Any digital nomads working full time while living in a mobile vehicle like a camper van, rv, etc?

Im thinking about doing it myself this year (since cities are shut down anyways), to check out the national parks/wild life on weekends, would love to hear from any techies who managed to pull this off.

Especially if you are a woman, would love to hear about your experience. I am scared of going on the road alone but hoping its not as scary as it seems.

    It's nowhere near as sexy as you think. And if you are alone it is very isolating.

    I considered this. Went as far as looking at sprinter vans in person, scouting parking spots on google maps and modeling the whole interior.

    I’m not so worried about the seclusion, composting toilet and shower take away the annoying need for having to park at a gym every day. And there are internet options out there. But I just couldn’t do the parking thing. I don’t want to have to worry about finding a spot every night, dealing with cops knocking on my window in the middle of the night to kick me out, van breaks down and you now have to find a hotel, etc etc.

    I still want a camper van, but I don’t think I could live out of it for months at a time. Maybe a few weeks here and there but not long term

      I go backpacking and camping quite a bit during the year. Finding a campsite on short notice is literally impossible most of the year (depending on where you are obviously) you’d have to plan weeks and sometimes months ahead.

    Following. I too am interested in this idea. Id like to live out of our RV full time and be location independent. I’m looking for PM related roles.
