Boondocking literally means to "dock" in the "boonies," camping on your own off the grid away from campgrounds, free to howl at the moon, run around in your BVDs, or just read your book in peace and quiet with no one around. But boondocking also means you're on your own, and you'll want to go prepared. Here, Sunny Skye gives you the basics you'll need to know, things like the best rig to have, being independent, coping with boredom and loneliness, as well as dealing with insects, wild animals, and pests.

Everyone’s financial situation is different. Whatever may fit your budget may not fit mine and vice versa, keeping that in mind I wrote this book for those who want to enjoy the freedom of the open road but on a reasonable budget. If you are like me and live off of a limited monthly income; then you may enjoy what you find in this book. Even though I didn’t discuss how to find free foods or soup kitchens in different cities, I did discuss how to find a lot of everyday needs while RVing for cheap and sometimes free.

We have been living the RV life for the last five years now, and I must admit that these five years are the best years of our life so far. I also must admit that not everything has been glorious and fun. Yes, we have faced our fair share of problems and hiccups on various fronts, but looking back, they all were great learning experiences. However, RV living isn’t just for retirees; it can be for anyone who wants to enjoy the freedom of living on the road, although this doesn’t mean that full-time RV living is for everyone.

In a frank and self-deprecating voice, memoirist Ken Ilgunas writes about the existential terror of graduating from college with $32,000 in student debt. Inspired by Thoreau, Ilgunas set himself a mission: get out of debt as soon as humanly possible. To that end, he undertook an extraordinary three-year transcontinental journey.

Story
The definitive, fascinating, all-reaching biography of Dr. Seuss. Dr. Seuss is a classic American icon. Whimsical and wonderful, his work has defined our childhoods and the childhoods of our own children. The silly, simple rhymes are a bottomless well of magic, his illustrations timeless favorites because, quite simply, he makes us laugh. The Grinch, the Cat in the Hat, Horton, and so many more are his troupe of beloved and uniquely Seussian creations.
Publisher's Summary
Do you find yourself struggling to meet your day-to-day living expenses? Do you have mountains of debilitating debt? Are you stuck in a career where you aren’t happy? Are you longing to escape the rat race and pressures of city dwelling? Do you want more freedom and control over your life?
I want to share with you a unique solution I found to solve these pressing problems. It’s a lifestyle phenomenon called “van boondocking”. It’s cheap, it’s crazy, it’s total freedom, and it may just be the leap you need to take.
Van boondocking is not just the adventure of a lifetime. The successful transition to this lifestyle means that the adventure can be what your life is composed of all the time.
Imagine waking up to birds chirping, the sound of a gently rolling creek, or to that warm percolator of coffee brewed over the embers of a dying campfire. That’s nice for a weekend, but what if you lived like that full time?
In this audiobook, I give you the practical advice to get you started on the basic steps of your own van boondocking adventure. At the heart of this lifestyle is simple living, done on your own terms. With this audiobook, I show you exactly where to begin on your new, nomadic escapades.
Here's what you'll learn in this book:
- What exactly boondocking is
- Why should you embark on this huge change of lifestyle
- What boondocking is really like first-hand
- How to live comfortably out of your van, car, truck, or RV
- How to deal with insects
- What to do about changes in climate
- How to deal with meal preparation
- How to function with reduced space
- How to engage in boondocking with Fido
I’m not here to sugarcoat this lifestyle choice for you. Boondocking may not be the ideal solution for everyone. In this book, we will talk about the nitty-gritty that is living out of a vehicle rather than a brick-and-mortar house.
You'll find information on:
- Is it for you?
- The pros and cons
- The costs
- Vehicle expenses
- Upkeep
- Remodeling
- Parking and camping
- Choosing a vehicle
When you pick which vehicle you want to use for your grand adventure, I will give you a realistic look at converting that vehicle into your full time domicile - in just a week! Once you have your vehicle ready, we’ll really dive into what it’s truly like in the day-to-day.
This audiobook offers a peek on these additional topics:
- Boondocking concerns and safety
- Safety issues
- Ways to deter crime
- Where to stay
- Free places
- Stealth camping in urban areas
- Paid camping
- Tidiness
- Showers
- Bathrooms
- Psychological health
Finally, we will talk about that all-important issue of how to make a living while boondocking. Even though your monthly costs will be considerably lower, you will have to make some money to pay for food, gas, and other essentials.
Additionally, you'll gain information about:
- Job ideas
- Overcoming challenges to working
- Vital tips and tricks
- Ideas for cutting monthly costs
- Choosing your amenities
- Carefully choosing locations
- Save money by changing your eating habits
With this audiobook as the first step of your new lifestyle adventure, you can quickly and easily be on your way to the life you’ve always imagined.
What are you waiting for? Take the leap!

Undoubtedly A Beginner's Guide
There's no denying that to create a single audio book that encapsulates the enormity of what's required to van life/boondocking would rival 'War & and Peace.'
This book does a fantastic job at giving a birds eye view of preparing and living on the road.
What it also does well is lightly touch on the many faces of boondocking without going into much depth.
My recommendation would be to create a list of the many topics covered in this book and then do your own research online through forums and YouTube.
Do NOT go into this book with the hope that it will give you everything you require to succeed in boondocking.
However, it certainly is a great place to start for the fledgling and curious.
Additionally, the narrator seems to yell at a dog at some point. Interesting feller...
