I know there was another thread that Matt posted a couple of years ago about going in on a Bus to live on... I was wondering if that ever happened, and if not, why?
I'm also interested in hearing stories from those folks who have lived on buses or know people who do/have. Down in Nola I met a few kids travelin/living on buses.. Seemed like a pretty great situation for them.
So whats everybody's opinion on Bus travel. I know I've met a couple of rainbow kind of folks and been pretty turned off by the whole hippie bus bullshit, and met a lot of kids on the road who basically associate buses with oogles who cant hack it. I could care less about those kind of opinions, I'm looking for thoughtful critique of a nomadic lifestyle with a roof over your head.
It's all bittersweet for me, as I'm currently on the road to try to make money as quickly as possible(spanging, flying signs) so that I can buy a bus for my daughter, her daddy and I to live on. Ramona hasn't been on the road with me since she was in my belly.. And I haven't been able to hack the stationary momma life(though being a mom is the most important thing in my life!) the best option for us is going to be a bus that we can all live on. (our dog, spacebag, too.) Travel till we find a place we like.. Post up for a while.. If it gets old.. Kick off again.Modern land pirates...:crew:
Seems pretty idealist, really, there must be ups and downs.. But I cant see many negatives. What do you guys think?
