As a full-time, working RV Digital Nomad I had to make some modifications to my 16' Airstream Bambi trailer to have a dedicated work space, chill space, unlimited data wifi internet and boondocking solar power!
Today, I'll tell you about the FOUR RV RENOVATIONS I made to create a perfect remote work space in my RV!

Do you have a link for your flag pole assembly? I think it would work great for our weather station.

I've followed you for years and decided to purchase your book in 2020. I had never thought of transcription until you mentioned it in the book. I took some online classes and started working for some companies part-time. Last August, I was able to leave my job as a library director and become a full-time legal transcriptionist. Thanks, Robin!

@anniesshenanigans3815 Год назад

the bed thing should be addressed by the rv industry. They charge thousands and thousands for these rvs and you can't even sleep in the bed?? that is nuts.

@CreativityRV Год назад

I totally agree! I think they are concerned with keeping the weight down. That's why they use so many staples instead of screws. I had to consider the weight of a better mattress, because my Bambi only carries 350 measly pounds! BUT, for me adding 40 pounds for a better bed was absolutely worth it.

@Mudbug2000 Год назад

Yep the weight. Really like the setup!

@Jennieallen415 Год назад

Love my sleep number RV bed!

@pamtilsonrodgers2825 Год назад

Great video. I’m trying to convince my husband it is “doable”. I want that freedom to travel and not be tied to our current jobs. My biggest obstacle is he is a workaholic! But, he loves travel and camping. Thanks for sharing these tips you have learned along the way. I’m taking notes! 😊

@fangletterman-ng2ro Год назад

@@CreativityRVWait. Is that 350 lbs AFTER your body weight, or before your body weight is added?

@hopcal2 Год назад

I watched your other vid when you installed the bed. I did days of research for a new bed locally and on line. I bought the Bloom from Brooklyn Beds! I'm not kidding. My first night on my new bed was the first time I could lay down and sleep all night without stabbing pain in my back and hip. Thank you for talking about Brooklyn beds on your show! A life saver!

@conniesteck2506 Год назад

I belong to a woman’s van group and one of the most common questions is about making money remotely, I always refer them to your channel. You have the best information out there (thank you for the video on the OGO toilet, first thing I did when I got the RV I have now.

Great tips for nomads. Also looks like Big Boy is happy with the new bed set up. ❤️🐈🌹

@jeepsahara333 Год назад

Thank you! Living the life 💚. I just hit 50 and would love to live this way. I attempted to find remote work but was scammed online twice. I enjoy working and having that outlet, just not in the company of others anymore. I want to live drama-free in solitude and peace. Love your posts 💚💚💚

@tracymeskel2839 Год назад

I Love Brooklyn Bedding! We had to get a funky size for our rv, too. Thank god for Brooklyn bedding. We were in quartzsite, so we ran into Phenix, tried out the mattresses, at the showroom. We ended up purchasing one. We bought it during the Presidents’ Day sale. We purchased it on Monday, and we had it by Thursday. We love your videos. Thank you for your time.

@fangletterman-ng2ro Год назад

Your hair coloring and style are the best that Ive ever seen on you. Wow! Beautiful. I shoukd take pics for my colorist etc. Very well done, Robin!

@sadielaurentiwhitley3762 Год назад

By the way, I think you have the best intro music, it’s absolutely adorable. I could use that tone as a pick me up tone, it always cheers me up. ❤

@adventureswithcorrine 2 месяца назад

Well Robin, it took 3 years of 'kinda' looking and 1 months of dedicated searching to land my dream remote work job. Now, to decide how to rework my Moho to fit a dual-screen setup that work will provide. PS: mattresses suck. Mine came with a RV king "Serta" but I donated it to an acquaintance who needed a bed and replaced it with a full sized Purple mattress. Best investment ever.

Funny Robin, I gave you one month in that tiny RV after you bought it. You are definitely proving me wrong! You are one amazing woman, I envy you. Safe travels! Love seeing The Boy happy too!

@LaidBackPedalPusher Год назад

My crystal ball says nomadic lifestyle as the way of the future. Satellites, solar cells, cell phones, power stations, batteries, induction/DC appliances, etc., make 'untethered' more viable!

@Patrick_Ross Год назад

Along with driver seat comfort, AC, bath and power capacity, I just added “bed comfort” to my highest priority categories in my search for my full time Class B. Have been looking at two twins that can convert to a large bed but it sounds like a fixed bed is the way to go. My main concern was to have sleeping space for occasional guests but they can sleep on the floor or in a tent!

@colleenhelligso3212 Год назад

I have the same Bambi and I'm watching you! 😮 I'll be tuning in next week - THANK YOU!

@airstreamer Месяц назад

We agree 💯 about the Brooklyn Bedding mattress. We sleep so much better with ours. Great info on Starlink. We are considering it, but our AT&T phones and T-Mobile internet are doing the job.

@dmwi1549 Год назад

Excellent information. I personally think your power system is just right. I thought I’d be cooking on an induction burner in my van so I upsized to 400ah of Battleborn Batteries and the 3000 watt inverter which wasn’t that much more expensive. But it all tables up space and weighs more. I’ve continued to use my trusty Coleman stove and haven’t put a dent in my capacity between driving charge cycles. And my 400ah is marginal for 12v Air Conditioners which I may add for my dogs comfort. I wish Starlink would quit changing up the plans and pricing. And it would be sensible to have a 12v system NOT 120ac. Thanks for the video.

@dewdropn5619 Год назад

You are full of great info! Love how you're wearing your hair, these days. Stay safe. 🕊

@photogher Год назад

How do you handle security for when you want to go run some errands? Do you have to break camp, pack everything up, put it all away, and take your rig with you on a grocery run or whatever other errands? If no, could you talk about how you manage that aspect of boondocking? I think most people would fear someone coming along and stealing their rig and anything else too, if there's no one else there to help guard the rig and accoutrements.

@PedalsNPetals Год назад

That would be my fear also .. well one fear lol

@Wrapperkatie1981 Год назад

I was going to ask the same question!!!😮

@pianogal853 Год назад

I have asked 4 wheeler dealerships how they like that wheel lock system, specifically for this reason. They're OK unless someone comes along with a metal grinder/cutter. Curious, too

@KimberlyLetsGo Год назад

You're one smart chickie!!! Thanks for so generously sharing your info.

@GFYSR 3 месяца назад

Marine weather tight thru hull mounts work great for running cables from outside to inside. Fairly inexpensive and use 5200 marine grade sealant or life calk sealant (Used on boats below water line, will work great above waterline 100% watertight)

@DivalerioKitchens Год назад

Great video Robin. Thank you ! Happy trails to you.

My parents are the Nomadic Ramblers. They often winter in the Quartzite, AZ area. You may have seen them. They RV full time and went to Alaska with a group of RV besties this summer.

Robin, instead of having to put the clamp on your tongue every time how about getting someone to weld a pipe on there with a drainhole in the bottom so you just drop the post in when you set up?

@kimstephenson3876 Год назад

AGREE on the mattress thing...I had a piece of foam over the dinette seats in my Rialta, and it was NOT comfortable...Bearable, but not comfortable. I put an Ikea double mattress in, and presto!!! A total game changer. Thanks for another great vid, Robin!

This is such great information! I’m researching in anticipation of going full time, solo…I’m 76. Mainly out of necessity, but I want to do it right and I think I’ll be OK. Your channel is always my first stop! I would love to see an updated 2024 video on your full-time Rv budget…I just watched the one you made 3 years ago, but a lot has changed. I don’t have a lot of years to be fooling around trying out this, that and the other…I gotta get it right the first time! I’d also love to see a new Class C, under 25-footer comparison video. I’m thinking a Class C because I feel very insecure about hooking up and towing a trailer, even a small Bambi like yours! Thanks for all the help!! You rock!!

We're in the process of installing a dcdc charger, 200ah lithium battery and inverter. Solar panels will be the next project. I'm so excited to stop fretting over having enough power for my fridge. We're not as small as you but still had to get pretty creative to make it all fit. You don't hear many you tubers talking about the dcdc chargers but they are a game changer for these smart alternators. By the way, I love your hair in this video😊

@kimberlyrmartin8377 Год назад

I think I have been watching you for the last 7 years, AT LEAST....Things have changed! Both for you and myself....I moved into a much smaller space in Pensacola, FL, but still a house....my dream, initially was the van.....ultimate tiny home modification for me....BUT my husband had different plans.....I'm truly grateful for him, my husband, because without him, I wouldn't have been moving around, all by myself....He was my jump-start, because I was truly afraid to move in any direction, so he got us going, and I am so grateful....but if I were to ever lose him....I would be back at "square 1", just trying to "be" in some place else....My next space if I would have to go on without him......would be a van....honestly, without him....

@TheRubeeRose Год назад

I love your videos. The only thing I miss is that I don't live in the USA. Therefore most of your stuff (internet access) doesn't work here. But I do get ideas from you. I'm planning to get my RV next year. I've specifically chosen one for it's workspace. Mine has a drop-down bed, so that leaves me with workspace (for my craft) in the lounge area. I don't have a dinette as such, which is great (it's the lounge, table, et all). I'm also planning to bring my craft with me in the form of a small storage trailer as I still want to live comfortably within my RV while I'm not crafting. Mine is light, bright and white inside! I'm now figuring out stuff about my computer. I currently have a desktop, which won't work for me, so I have to change it to a slimline or a laptop. The "coffee" table is to be changed to more of a work table (plus eating spot). I'm certainly contemplating changing both sofa's to storage and workspace! I have my mattress sorted, luckily it's a standard queen size. Of course I don't need that size, so the mattress is going to be a king single, with storage (clothes) chill space as well. Push a button and it's up out of the way! INTERNET is going to be my issue. We have rotten service here in Australia. This is my main concern at the moment. I have to go for satellite (probably starlink), and a hotspot for my phone. That router sounds interesting and I will investigate. Your installation seems to be an interesting option. I'm still working on my Power Needs! I've just subscribed! Thank you!

@exploringrvdude7817 Год назад

I recently painted the interior of my RV to lighten it up also, got rid of so much of that dark wood. I tossed the mattress that came with mine and put in a memory foam mattress that's so much better.

@rhondabarlow860 Год назад

I bought a used RV this past January. The people I bought it from had replaced a mattress with a regular bed mattress. It’s a little big for the space but it will do for now.

You showed everything all setup but I was hoping you'd talk about how you stow your computer, keyboard, etc. when you hit the road. Have you tried permanently mounting the computer in any of your rigs?

@WyattChristman Год назад

You are very organized and an inspiration for the rest of us to not except the "defaults" in life and with an RV, modify everything you need to so that you have a home instead of just an RV...is that your next book? From RV to home on the road, nomadisize your life the way you want it! Great tips for the Starlink especially the pole mount, brilliant!! I ended up drilling a hole in the front bottom area, pulling the wire through and then sealing the hole. The only problem is that the Starlink wire went bad (I actually thought it was the dish because it fell off in the wind and busted the stand) and then I had to do it over but with some good foam sealer it was fine. My dish still works fine it just takes a little longer to calibrate. Love the desk chair because just like the bed the seats are soooooooooo bad...come on RV makers you guys gotta catch up!! 🙂

@dogsarethebestfriends Год назад

Too funny bc you were so against starlink not that long ago but now you love it. Glad you tried it! I’ve had mine since last October and do love the speed but it is picky because it won’t work with trees (or if it does it’s not consistent). Not crazy about the cost either. Hopefully they don’t raise it again!

Just removed a large original equipment L-shaped sofa and installed two theater seats. I was tired of having to close up and deconstruct the sofa when I wanted to move. Can’t believe how much space I gained and also lost some weight too! Renovations are not that difficult just have to think them through all situations, moving, slides, etc. Also added battle born batteries this past year, working on the solar so I can stay untethered longer. Happy travels
