Encyclopedia : R : RV : RVL : RV Lifestyle
The RV Lifestyle (RV stands for recreational vehicle) is made up of primarily retired people and those interested in traveling and camping rather than living in one location. Many of these people are called snowbirds. They travel south during the winter months in their RV and return in spring. This is also known as [full-time RV living]. You can learn more about this kind of life style by [reading journals] of those who travel in RVs. One such journal shows what it is like to travel then [boondock] each night. Another journal tells what it's like to [combine working full time while living nearby] in a RV resort.
In Australia these retired travellers are called "grey nomads". They usually travel north in winter in their RVs to catch the warmer weather and return south for spring and summer, [The GreyNomads]. Some "grey nomads" have sold their homes choosing to travel on a continuous basis.
Some choose to stay in Wal-Mart car parks to save money.
There is a growing community of Burners (Burning Man participants) who have taken recreational vehicles and modified them so as to fit their beliefs. The conversion of old schoolbuses to this end is popular. A sub-culture are taking old diesel vehicles and using biodiesel in them, in order to be more environmentally friendly.
