Congratulations! Ours was finished just over 12 years ago. We're loading it out for a 2 month trip today. Ready to add to its 55,000 miles of use....

Still full-time, since June of 2020. We don't remote work, so we get jobs every once in a while to earn travel funds.
Currently, we're on our last few days of a 5 month stint at a solar farm. For work periods, we live in our 19-foot travel trailer.
Once work is over, we'll go swap this camper...
Also, here's the next video of the series.

What a fun story! Congratulations on your fulltimeyness. That feeling you get when you walk out of a job and first get on the road is one that sticks with you for a long time. I still think back fondly to that day. Fulltime is the best time!

They didn't give tourists the option of not wearing it. Certainly, the workers and locals didn't bother with pfds. I was happy enough knowing my body would be found downstream if anything went wrong....
It was a breathtaking adventure for sure

It was decided that we had one more thing to see in the area before we left for new adventures the next morning, so it was back to the bus. We went back through the Friendship Tunnels, back past the Altit Fort and then up an incredibly narrow, twisting road. Mustafa just skimmed the big bus...
Once everyone was safely back from their river crossings we all took to walking back up the long hill. About halfway up (conveniently at a point where you're tired and feeling the need for a rest) there are a few shops selling french fries and pepsi's. We all sat down and had a nice cold drink...
I took some photos of the bridge and after a good bit the zipliners started off one by one crossing the river. Madeline waved, Umar played dead. Eric pulled a “CREED”. Everyone else crossed like they were normal people, Rizwan was the last to go.
Once he was in the air I took off on the...
THE HUSSAINI HANGING BRIDGE
AND ATTABAD LAKE
Once again, it was back on the bus for us. The day was young yet and we had adventure to find. We eagerly boarded the bus and as Mustafa drove us along the Karakoram Highway we soon found ourselves barreling down a long, long tunnel. One of five...
Yes! There was construction like that going on in every little town. Everything from single story to 5 or 6 floors were all being built like that. I found the use of "lumber" very interesting.

Such beautiful scenery. I'm putting Bull Creek Flats on my list! Thank you for showing us the Redwoods from the diet roads, I haven't managed to see them this way yet!
I had not realized that I've driven on part of Mattole Road until I looked up A.W.Way park. We hiked the beach to the Punta...
After the tour we walked back down the hill and through the bazaar once again. We spied a narrow rug hanging on the outside wall of a shop. It looked like it would fit perfectly in our work RV. Elizabeth spent some time haggling with the shop keeper. It started at about 8000 rupees and, when...
Our guide led us through the narrow hallways and small doors, room by room. The general sitting rooms were decorated with weaponry – rifles, swords, bows and arrows, paintings and photographs of the royal families that lived there over the centuries.
Other rooms had cookware, pots...
As we walked back down the streets of the bazaar, it was well after dark. We had more photo opportunities with locals and more conversations too. More of the usual “Where are you from?” How do you like Pakistan?” “Welcome to Pakistan” , everyone was extremely friendly. I felt quite at ease...
