Is RV Travel Across The USA A Dream Of Yours?
Vagabond Beginnings
RV Travel Was Not How I Started My Vagabond Ways . . .
In 1980 I was underemployed and not making ends meet. I decided to sell everything but my car, some clothes and camping gear, becoming a vagabond as it were, and drive off to "booming" Texas, which turned out not to be so booming when I got there.
So with my savings and a rough itinerary, I continued my solo travel adventure thru Mexico, Guatemala and Belize for 7 weeks. There I climbed an active volcano in Guatemala and snorkeled off a coral reef on Cay Corker off the coast of Belize. I also bought or bartered for some beautiful hand woven textiles, a weakness of mine, that I have to this day.
That was my introduction to adventure travel. Travel inspired by a vagabond spirit, that, once on the road, was fueled by experiencing the surprising mystery and beauty of nature and the creativity and generosity of people.
I was hooked!
