Have you ever thought what it would be like to live in a motor home permanently? When we see on TV the bright and happy looking gorgeous young people who live in motor homes, we keep thinking how wonderfully carefree they are and what a lovely time they must be having with no worries and being able to travel wherever they want to. In the ads of course motor home families have such fun in beautiful weather; sunshine filling their days and warm breezy star lit nights adding romance and excitement to their lives. But is that how it is when you really have to live in a RV motor home full-time?
Living and moving around in a motor home could be great, but don't expect everything will be as they make it out in their colorful ads. For one, you have to pay for spending the night in a camping ground and everything else you use and buy. Whether its electricity, heating, air conditioning or any facilities used by you will have to be paid and at these camping grounds they usually charge you more than normal. Then it rains. Of course it rains and it's not always sunshine and blue skies. The grounds become muddy and the inside of your motor home becomes stiflingly hot, but you can't venture outside because it's pouring down buckets. All you can do is stare at each other and after some time, that too becomes tedious.
At least when you have a fixed home, you don't have to worry about where to spend the night, whereas when you are in a motor home, you have to check out the camping grounds for which you have to pay for spending the night and still cook, clean, and attend to the laundry which can surely become tedious after some time. Then what about your health? At least when you are living in a house, you have a family doctor you visit when you are sick and he knows all about you and the family. But when traveling in a motor home, you have to visit any available doctor in the area who knows nothing about you. How about friends and neighbors? When living in a motor home, it's not possible to form firm and long lasting friendships since you will be moving all the time.
When it does start to rain, I wonder what you can do, cramped inside a space with no privacy at all. In a home at least, you can go to your own room and chill out or have a good cry. In a motor home however, you just have to stick it out and hope the rain will cease soon. Even if you and your partner are head over heels in love, a time will come when you both need space and the close proximity day in and out could cause a lot of tension. You also have to keep in mind that your closest neighbor is parked too close for comfort and anything you say or do can be heard by them. On the other hand, their shouting and their quarreling not to mention their loud music will get on your nerves although there's not much you can do about it.
This is not to say that RV motor homes should be avoided at all costs, all I'm trying to say is that while motor homes are fantastic for a vacation or for the purpose of getting away from it all for a short time, there will be no problem at all. You can have a lovely care free holiday in a home away from home and then look forward to your next holiday in your RV motor home. A RV motor home however is not the ideal place to live full-time especially for those who are used to the comforts of a stable home.
