Ready for a realistic yet inspiring look at what it means to live, work, and homeschool on the road? Rose sits down with Vanessa Russell of The Adventure Detour, who, along with her husband and daughter, has been living the full-time RV life since 2015. Their journey began with a desire for more family time and a deeper sense of connectedness. This decision to hit the road led Vanessa to start blogging about their adventures, which opened the door to writing opportunities for RV-related websites and magazines. As their presence grew, they expanded into content creation, collaborating with brands to produce social media ads and more. Vanessa discusses the freedom that comes with being an entrepreneur, particularly when it comes to finances and setting your own schedule. She shares valuable tips on finding a sustainable travel pace and navigating the sometimes tricky world of campsite availability. The conversation also delves into the unique balance of homeschooling and working from the road. Flexibility, Vanessa notes, is key–whether it's prioritizing travel or adapting homeschooling to fit your ever-changing schedule. She encourages embracing the experiential learning that road schooling offers, turning every journey into an educational adventure. However, working on the road isn't always as glamorous as it might seem. Vanessa highlights the challenges, such as finding reliable workspaces and securing internet access. Budgeting is another significant hurdle for full-time RVers. Yet, these challenges are all part of the adventure, often leading to memorable stories shared around the campfire. Vanessa's advice? Stay flexible, adapt to the unexpected, and connect with the supportive RV community. There are numerous resources out there for RV entrepreneurs, and plugging into them can make all the difference.

Have you ever wondered what it takes to turn a passion for travel and adventure into a successful business? In this episode Rose sits down with Paul Aubert, the visionary founder of Noovo Vans. Paul and his dedicated team of entrepreneurs have created a thriving business that began with a spirit of adventure and the creation of Natasha, their legendary hotel bus. Natasha has journeyed through 16 countries, carried 60 eager adventurers, and covered an astonishing 26,000 miles across the Americas, setting the stage for what would become Noovo Vans. Paul shares his inspiring journey from that first epic road trip to building a business known for its high-quality, custom van conversions.

With a background that marries his French heritage to his love for the open road, Paul has been instrumental in guiding Noovo's design philosophy, ensuring that each campervan embodies beauty, sustainable comfortable living and the thrill of discovery.
