What if you could travel full-time in an RV for as little as $600 a month? In this episode of Inspired Travels with Patti, I sit down with Amber Adkins, who spent two years traveling across the country in a 19-foot trailer—without breaking the bank. Amber shares practical strategies for dramatically reducing travel costs, from boondocking on free public lands to leveraging long-term visitor areas and state park passes. She also dives into creative ways to earn money on the road, including workamping opportunities that can fund months of travel. This episode is packed with actionable tips and inspiring stories that prove travel doesn’t have to be expensive to be life-changing.

• How Amber lived on just $600/month while traveling full-time
• What boondocking is and how it eliminates camping costs
• How to stay on free BLM land for up to 14 days
• The $180 LTVA pass for 6 months of camping
• State park annual pass hacks (e.g., New Mexico)
• Finding cheap or free activities (museums, hiking, local spots)
• Using apps like Campendium and iOverlander
• Workamping jobs that pay + cover living expenses
