Three-Years-On-The-Road-Bob Davis Podcast 1119

Three Years On The Road

Three Years On The Road and embracing a fourth without reservation. Hear the story in Three-Years-On-The-Road-Bob Davis Podcast 1119.

First of all I started nomad life out with a podcast the very first night I was on the road.

Halloween Podcast

So every year my Halloween is a podcast day.

Fourth Year Of Nomad Travel Coming Up

Second of all I am fully embracing a fourth year on the road starting in November 2023.

Full Commitment

That is to say I have made a full commitment to so called nomad life.

Life On The Road

Altogether these commemorative podcasts provide a record of observations and stories about my life on the road.

Many Thanks

And many people to thank as always.

Certainly I will not have a full list of those to thank.

But the names that come up here I will assume fit this particular podcast.

Crazy

Above all many people ask me about all the ‘crazy’ people and situations I must encounter.

However sometimes the almost mundane nature of our lives as nomads might surprise those back in the world.

Change

In fact the change we encounter is more significant personally than anything else about this life.

Pace

The pace of travel and my life have changed in these three years without a doubt.

Positive

Surprisingly positive change.

Depth

One point often overlooked is the depth and quality of the relationships we form out here.

Face Value

Even more the fact that people accept you at face value.

Same Plane

That is to say we meet and begin our friendships on the same plane.

In The Moment

Regardless of who we thought we were or what we may have done what’s important is who we are in the moment while out here.

Vistas

Furthermore I wouldn’t trade the vistas I have seen through the windshield for anything.

Of course I have missed a lot of TV Shows in the last three years.

Timeless

Nevertheless I have gained timeless friendships and life experiences.

Like A Dream

Accordingly it has been more like a dream than anything else.

Of course I’d point out the details are in Three-Years-On-The-Road-Bob Davis Podcast 1119.

Not Always Easy

All in all I wouldn’t say it was easy.

But it was easier than staying back in the world.

Don’t Wait For Paradise

All things considered if you have something you want to do…

Don’t wait for paradise.

In summary whatever it is…reach out and grab it.

Grand-Canyon-Maroon-Bob Davis Podcast 1117

Grand Canyon Maroon

In Grand-Canyon-Maroon-Bob Davis Podcast 1117 above all we’ll talk about letting go. That is to say sometimes you are forced to just go with the flow.

Goal Driven

Basically we live in a goal driven society.

Moving From Task To Task

Under those circumstances we move from task to task.

Even more we do so without question.

Sudden Need For Patience

So imagine the frustration when we’re confronted with a situation that requires patience.

Letting Go

Or further completely letting go.

Transform and Enlighten

When we do this all of the sudden we become open to experiences that can transform and enlighten.

Points On An Agenda

These days for many travel is a series of points on an agenda.

Once you complete one task you move to the next.

And so on.

Throw The Agenda Away

On the other hand if you throw the agenda away the flow brings sublime experiences.

Control

In fact I have to be shown this again and again by forces beyond my control.

Breakdown At Grand Canyon

And so it is in the Grand Canyon…

When you have a breakdown that requires patience to fix.

Full details in Grand-Canyon-Maroon-Bob Davis Podcast 1117.

Goal Driven

Altogether I am a goal driven…

Intensity

With an intensity to match.

Pause Challenge

So when confronted with a situation that requires me to pause…

It’s a challenge..

Grand Canyon Maroon

All in all I am grateful because I am marooned in the most beautiful place.

The Grand Canyon.

Time

Furthermore I have had ample time to take in as much as I want in this amazing place.

Nomads

Finally we nomads put our vehicles under tremendous stress.

Stress

We never seem to notice we put ourselves under stress in addition.

Stop

Every now and then the Universe says stop.

Certainly we may not want to stop.

However when we do…

Experience

An amazing experience often awaits.

Life Lessons

It’s analogous to life too.

For example how many times do we miss details or experiences because we’re ‘just too busy’.

Taught By Travel

In short another lesson travel teaches.

Reactivating-My-YouTube-Channel-Bob Davis Podcast 1098

Reactivating My You Tube Channel

Firstly I am an audio guy so reactivating my YouTube channel is a big step for me. Details in Reactivating-My-YouTube-Channel-Bob Davis Podcast 1098.

Thanks To A Big YouTube Channel

Secondly this is all due to appearing in Peter Santenello’s Off The Grid video from Quartzsite Arizona.

Encouragement

Certainly all the nomads featured in the video received a lot of messages and encouragement from Peter’s viewers.

And we really appreciate it.

Power

Above all it convinced me again of the power of the YouTube platform.

How I Used YouTube

However over the years I avoided YouTube except for very specific uses.

Investment

Because I felt if I was going to do video I would have to invest in equipment and editors.

End Of Worry

But I’m not going to worry about all of that now.

My Intentions

Most importantly I’ll explain in this podcast how I intend to use the channel in the future.

Background

In addition it’s a good opportunity to provide some background on The Bob Davis Podcasts for new subscribers and listeners.

Podcast Listeners Welcome To YouTube and Visa Versa

Even more an opportunity to introduce long time listeners to my YouTube effort.

Off The Grid

Finally I’ll do some clarifications and explanations of what we were talking about in the Off The Grid video.

Life In An Ambulance

And another video Peter put up about living in an ambulance.

Different Flavors of Nomad

For example there are different kinds of nomads.

Some in cars and tents.

Still others in home built RV’s and the expensive big rigs.

Not to mention Bus Life!

Different Philosophies

In addition there are different philosophies about nomad life.

We Don’t All Agree

That is to say we do not all agree about what nomad life is and what it means.

Vibrant Community

Consequently it makes for a vibrant community.

Why Come Out

For example what if you have little or no camping experience?

Should you come out in a car long term?

And what kind of people will you encounter?

Not For Everyone

In short it’s not for everyone.

Born To Wander

But if you have the bug to wander deep down inside it is probably for you.
