Cheap RV Living.com: Bob Wells His web site, YouTube videos, and organization of the Rubber Tramp Rendezvous have all guided and inspired me as I look to make #vanlife a reality.
Campfires & Concierges: I first met Leigh in Chicago when I was living in the area and found a local kayak club with a diverse membership. She has since relocated to Arizona then Utah but maintains her excellent travel blog that covers everything from gourmet food tours in Europe to pet friendly outdoor activities across the country. She is my go to source for gear advice for Sandy.
Thinking of a trip to Arizona? (Buy her book) While you're there pick up her book on Utah Day Trips by Theme as well.
William Least Heat-Moon: His book Blue Highways is a must read for any traveler!!
SUV RVing: Tristan has an excellent YouTube channel and several web sites devoted to his passions. SUV RVing is probably closest to how I dreamed of traveling when I was young and in line with my dad's ideal of a Chevy Suburban with most of the back seats removed for sleeping. I highly recommend his stuff.
Adventure Van Man: Brian has a nice YouTube channel. I get a lot of location ideas from his videos.
Mobile Solar Power: Great information on different power options for an RV or camper. His YouTube videos are super detailed. If you watch them you may recognize the influence on my electrical system when it's complete. I bought the Kindle version of his book.
