22. From Police Department to Full-Time RV Life With Retired Road Tripping

Описание: What if you retired and hit the road in an RV three weeks later?
In this episode of RV Trash Talk, the crew sits down with Kevin and Lareka from Retired Road Tripping, an empty-nest couple who sold their house, ordered a fifth wheel, and decided not to wait one more day to start living the life they wanted.
They talk about:
How a COVID happy hour with friends turned into serious “what are we doing with our lives” conversations
Losing a coworker who passed away two weeks after retirement and how that shifted their mindset
Why Kevin decided not to do the traditional retire and get another job route
Going from never camping in an RV to ordering a 2022 fifth wheel and planning full-time RV life
Moving from their longtime family home to a small rental as a “training wheels” step before the road
Setting expectations with their youngest son and helping him stay in the rental with roommates
How their marriage of almost 30 years has changed and strengthened in 300 square feet
Their craziest “oh boy” moments, including a determined mouse that hitchhiked from Yosemite and a failed hydraulic pump that left their rig crooked for 12 days
Why Door County, Wisconsin and Idaho surprised them in the best way
The real reason they started their YouTube channel and how they decide what to film

If you are dreaming about retiring into RV life or looking for honest stories from people actually living it, this episode is packed with wisdom, humor, and a big reminder not to wait forever.
