Story Chasing | Van Life Failed Plans in BAJA MEXICO (solo female van life) @storychasing | Uploaded March 2022 | Updated October 2024, 4 hours ago.
Van life is all about adjustments because not everything goes according to plan whether you're in Baja Mexico or the United States. This was one of those times where our van life plans failed, even though we had good plans, and had to scramble to figure out our next move. However, I kinda think the alternative was better, at least for now. What do you think?

Fall foliage is at the top of my list of things to experience in New England! Im so glad I came back to New England in my van over the summer to explore this area more but to also see the fall foliage in New England!!! Mother nature is not disappointing!!! The fall foliage is coming alive with red, yellow, and oranges dotted throughout. I even went on a hike in New Hampshire to see even more in the woods.

★ My Story
Hi, Im Amber and in May 2017 I started full time RV living. I started this nomadic journey after selling my house and all my belongings to pursue this crazy dream of traveling full time in an RV and creating incredible memories.
After 1 year of traveling, I sold my 26 foot Winnebago Class C RV for a more nimble Class B van on a Promaster 2500 chassis. Now in my 5th year of RVing in my camper van, Im still loving this RV lifestyle and being a digital nomad. I almost always boondock in nature and really enjoy that off grid living.

Van life is usually really really amazing, but this week....watch out! So many crazy things happened in one week after getting back into the van and carrying on with my travels. Im always so grateful for what I have in life; however, sometimes things can go sideways and this just happens to be one of those weeks in van life and traveling full time with my dog.

![Dealing with Loneliness & Relationships [Solo Van Life Female RVer]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/GC9Qk2vIEmE/hqdefault.jpg "Dealing with Loneliness & Relationships [Solo Van Life Female RVer]
Dealing with loneliness and relationships as a solo van life female RVer is a huge priority for mental health awareness. I get the question quite frequently, Are you lonely or Is van life lonely?
