Hello from the panhandle of Florida

Hi campers! My fiance and I Just bought our first Travel Trailer for full time living as we slowly explore the country while in our first years of school. Currently getting rid of almost everything we own so we can do this. Leaning towards a minimalist life style in hopes of simplifying our lives with less distractions and more outdoor adventures, when we aren't studying or working.

We decided to go with a 2018 Eagle RSTS in hopes that it would provide the most comfort as we use it as a home, as well as the sturdiness and quality in materials offered by Jayco according to the sales associates at Camping World. Though I wonder about those claims as I become more familiar with it. So I figure I'll be around on occasion to find tips for modifications and repair. As well as all the newbee help we can get while we get used to this exciting and new way of life we are about to embark on!! Please wish us good luck and safe travels!

Thank you!! I am planning to start a youtube channel to make use of some equipment from an old hobby. We'll see how that goes, probably a bit further down the road after we are settled in. Too much going on right now . I will post a link if that happens. Still have another month till we move into it, just waiting for the lease with our apartment to end. Will get some pictures to show around that time.
