Accidental Full Timer

Did not mean to, but we sold our house at crazy price. Then we bought a 2015 30’ International to live in while we build. Second Airstream and we also have a old Scotty we restored (gutted) that I use for an office. So far, so good. The experience downsizing to 240 square feet from a monster old bungalow has been eye opening. Life has gotten so simple.
Well, not totally simple, we also added a Boxer puppy to the mix, our old one died and Rivet is almost five months old. A dog crate fits under the table, you just have to eat side saddle. He really likes sleeping in the window ledge.

Currently having an electrical problem and planning to try some dent pulling using the hot glue method. I’ll post my thought on that process.

And finally, I tell everyone there are three options when the house is finished.
1. Keep the one we have and buy a Cummins Hauler
2. Sell the one we have and scale back to 22’ or so the 1500 Hemi will do.
3. Sell it all as by then I may never want to see another caravan.

Jury is still out.

Welcome Aboard

Hi - Welcome from New Hampshire!

We are in interesting times for sure. It's nice that you found options to carry on after making the sale of your home. Then you need to move your stuff and take things to a different level of minimal.

There are lot's of helpful answers here in the forums. Start a thread for the problem you want to address and folks will share their experience to help.

Thanks

Resolved my issue. Will check in periodically. Newbie with a modern Airstream, so not much help from me there. I am starting a couple of projects on it soon. One to maximize storage and another to attempt some small dent repairs. My skill set related to these projects is rather advanced. I’ll review related posts prior to starting and then post thoughts and updates.
