Free Camping ANYONE???

How we travel on a budget.
Free Camping ANYONE???

Before Kate and I (JC) ran out and bought our RV, we had been traveling the world for almost 5 months...

And when I say traveling the world... I mean, we road-tripped from Georgia to California, got on a plane, and moved to Bali, Indonesia, for two months. I know, crazy right? But we weren't finished there. We then moved to Phuket, Thailand, and traveled around Phuket for almost 4 weeks.

But the only way we were able to pull this off was.... Drum roll, please 🥁. We lived on a budget.

I know I know you thought we had won the lottery, or maybe I invented something cool that paid us Millions. We just saved up some money and did it. But our budget at the time was $100 a day. Now you might think, that isn't very much, but in Bali and Phuket, we lived like KINGS...

So when we purchased the RV our Budget really hadn't changed much. Still $100 a day to live off. We understood we would have to make a few initial investments.

INVESTMENTS:

  • RV
  • RV stuff
  • MORE RV STUFF

But at the end of the day, we looked for other ways to save money... Well, we found it. So here are a couple of places we stay at to save some mulla aka money.

Free (KINDA) Places to Stay:

  • Cracker Barrels
  • Walmart Parking Lots (Not a fan, haven't stayed at one yet but will probably have to at some point)
  • Bass Pro Shops, Cabelas, Lowes, HomeDepot
  • The side of the road
  • BLM Land
  • Federal Land
  • Harvest Hosts
  • Boondockers Welcome

But in this week's video, we show you a couple of stops we made on our journey from Florida State Cavern Park to Jackson, Mississippi.
