    sigh not gonna lie, the nomad route is becoming more and more enticing lately. The part that sucks is that RVs designed for long-term use are expensive as fuck and you still have to pay for hook-ups. The alternative is living out of a car or large passenger van, which, while not terrible, means the amount of space you have is almost non-existent.

    The Snufkin lifestyle is very appealing though.

      A nice RV kind of misses the point of “hobo.” So does “hobosexual,” but that’s a different topic.

        Yeah, I have a few too many things I consider irreplaceable for a true hobo lifestyle though. However, if I were to lose it all in a fire or natural disaster then I’d probably consider becoming a “true hobo”.

      You don’t necessarily have to pay for hook ups anymore. I’d argue solar and some LiFe batteries are more than enough to power someone living a modest lifestyle. For water/sewage there’s plenty of places to fill up/drop off like at some interstate rest stops.
