Why Working Nomads Should Try RV Living
The Advantages of Living in an RV for Working Nomads
For working nomads, travel is an inherent part of their jobs. You may be one of the estimated 1,696,386 traveling nurses, 96,024 petroleum refining employees or any other workers in the U.S. whose positions take them on the road with each new job they accept. If so, having a place to stay when you arrive is a primary concern. You may be able to find hotels that offer weekly or monthly rates, but those have you living out of your suitcase. There’s a better option: living in an RV.
Why Should Working Nomads Live in an RV?
Traveling for your job can be exciting, but it can also be exhausting. At the end of the day, it helps to have a comfortable place to lay your head. Here are a few advantages of moving into a home on wheels.
Take Your Creature Comforts With You
When you live in an RV, you no longer have to live out of a suitcase and hope the hotel has a comfortable bed and pillows. You get to take your own pillow everywhere you travel, along with your sheets, comforter and favorite coffee mug.
Eat a Home-Cooked Meal Whenever You Want
Working nomads often resort to eating out when traveling for work. Even when you stay in a hotel that has a full kitchen, it can be a challenge to cook at home if your room isn’t fully stocked with spices, oils and other cooking supplies that don’t make sense to purchase at each new location. When you live in an RV, you can stock your own cupboards and refrigerator with all the supplies you need to cook what you like to eat. Do you like to grill out? That’s also an option!
Enjoy Privacy and a Quiet Environment
When you live in an RV, you have your own space. You don’t have to share accommodations with other working nomads. You also don’t have to listen to the TV in the adjoining room, hear voices outside your door, or find yourself awakened by the sound of doors slamming shut. You may occasionally hear your neighbors at the RV park, but you will have a much quieter environment when there is room between you and your neighbors.
Save Money on Accommodations
Monthly rates at RV parks are often significantly lower than staying in a hotel or other types of temporary housing. While you have to purchase an RV, you can find new travel trailers that cost less than $400 per month and used trailers for even less. Additionally, you no longer need to pay rent or a mortgage for a permanent dwelling.
