    ❤May I ask how tall you are? I am 5'11". It looks like you so much space. I have been debating what kind of trailer I want to pull with my Ford Transit. I know a lot of people talk about minimizing, yet my books and crafting tools make me happy. Why ever would I want to give them up? Books are my best friend and crafting brings me peace. LOL...TMI...I guess.😊

    Hello! I am 5’7”. My tab would probably be a tad uncomfortable but there are other brands that would accommodate. Have fun exploring them! I can SO relate about the crafting tools! I brought my Dremel tool and accessories so I could learn to make spoon rings and bracelets while on the road. I love to hunt for vintage silverware. I’d pick your favorite books and absolutely bring them. I’d try to incorporate them into your rig so while lying in bed you see them and smile. I wouldn’t bring a kiln but definitely bring other crafting items. Many nomads bring boxes of paint, yarn, beads. I love to make tiny things and give them away or leave them for people to find… hopefully bringing them unexpected joy. Choose items that make your heart sing and pass along the rest… maybe to a school?

    I try to mix it up but nothing radical. Our genetics play a role but I believe the more active we are the better. For me: zero TV time, evenings are outdoors then to bed, walking and rucking (Carrying heavy loads) is great for us! I personally love the blue zone philosophy and also the book “Built to Move”. www.audiobooks.com/m-audiobook/617658

    Hello my Co-Heart!!! 'wink' 'wink' (I saw in your other video that you are no longer a flight attendant)....thank you so much for your teardrop camper tour!!! Luv your tiny home on wheels!!!!! Thinking about purchasing a NuCamp, but I've never towed a thing in my life! Is this your first time towing or have you had experience prior to purchasing a towable?

  • @createyoursecondhalf

    Oh Co-Heart! My heart leaped (lept, jumped?) reading this. I miss the air but love the road. I’ve towed many campers and boats. I must say a single axel camper is tough. But if you can carry a tray of drinks down a narrow isle in turbulence, YOU can do this! Practice in empty parking lots, buy a toy truck and trailer. Make sure the front wheels turn, not too cheap, lol. Then practice with it and watch the movements.

    I really like your system & knowledge. I have a MDX Acura that can tow max 5000, I think. But I'm thinking of getting a teardrop, if I can tow it. Is it hard to tow? How hot does it get in the teardrop?

  • @createyoursecondhalf

    @createyoursecondhalf

    Ай бұрын

    You could easily tow a Tab 320 with your MDX. Backing up can be a challenge at first but just practice and make tiny adjustments. This is because it’s a single axel. I forget it’s behind my truck sometimes. lol It has three huge windows so there’s usually a good breeze throughout. The air conditioner works great as well! But you’ll need shore power to run the air conditioner. If you’re boondocking or dry camping you’ll need to bring along a generator to run the a/c. I’m getting ready to buy one so I’m doing a lot of research.
