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.

Simplicity-Rules-The-Nomad-Bob Davis Podcast 1110

Simplicity Rules The Nomad

Firstly I am always surprised at the amount of interest in nomad life. Details in Simplicity-Rules-The-Nomad-Bob Davis Podcast 1110.

Interest

Secondly time to spend some time talking about why this level of interest exists these days.

Traveling And Meeting People

For instance traveling across the country this summer I’ve met a lot of people.

What’s Nomad Life Like

Generally they wall want to now what being a nomad is like.

Information

And they soak up as much information has I can provide.

Interest Across All Ages

Surprisingly the interest runs across all ages.

From retirees to college students everyone is attracted to the idea of the freedom of nomad life.

What’s Normal?

Balanced against what we think of as normal life…

Negatives

Being a nomad has its negatives.

Positives

But there are also many positives.

Why?

In view of all these questions I am most interested in the reason why people are so interested in me!

Therefore in Simplicity-Rules-The-Nomad-Bob Davis Podcast 1110 I attempt to answer that question based on some recent experiences and questions from listeners.

YouTube Too

Because I now have an active YouTube channel some of these questions come from my viewers too.

Questions Americans Don’t Usually Ask

With this in mind I hear people asking a questions I don’t think Americans are used to asking.

A question I don’t think they like asking either.

Three Jobs To Keep Up

These days its important to realize many people are working two or three jobs just to keep up.

Feeling Trapped In A Dead End Job

Equally surprising is the number of people who feel trapped in dead end jobs…

Or caught in the rat race.

Why Do we Put Up With It?

Under these circumstances I find it shocking so many are asking why they put up with things as they are.

No One Has An Answer

Even more shocking is the fact that leaders do not seem to even want to try to answer the question.

Freedom

In view of this the interest in nomad life is understandable.

Simplicity

Most important is the freedom simplicity confers.

Authentic-Creativity-Nomad-Travel-Bob Davis Podcast 989

Authentic Creativity and Nomad Travel

First of all authentic creativity and nomad travel go together. Secondly we’ll talk about it in depth in Authentic-Creativity-Nomad-Travel-Bob Davis Podcast 989.

Authenticity

Most importantly while people value authenticity, there isn’t much of it around.

Thought Processes of Creating

Certainly I consider thought processes as a part of creating content.

Lots of Content

On the other hand there’s a lot of content on various platforms.

Not Genuine

Even more much of this content doesn’t seem genuine, creative or authentic.

No Time To Think and Dream

To clarify I don’t think content creators have enough time to think and dream.

Too Busy To Create!

In short many creators are too ‘busy’ to create.

Enter the nomad lifestyle.

Above all there’s no tether for the nomad. There’s no ‘coming home’. Because the nomad is home where ever he is.

The Zen Of Nomad Life

Moreover I’ve learned there is a zen to this life.

More Time Somehow

In the same vein there’s more time think and to think about what you’re thinking about!

In Depth

At least that is how I have experienced it. And, I talk about it in depth in Authentic-Creativity-Nomad-Travel-Bob Davis Podcast 989.

Untethered

Finally there is something about the pace of ‘untethered‘ travel.

Whim Is Real

For example the ability to decide to go South or North, East or West depending on your whim.

Time Slows Down

In other words time does slow down. You are alone with your thoughts.

No Peace In Today’s Culture

To sum up sometimes it seems as though you can’t get a moment’s peace in our day to day culture.

Not Easy

For instance we’re always listening to watching something. Texting. Communicating. Stop and go traffic.

In addition it feels like most people are just irritated just about all the time.

Nothing Is Easy

Not A Care In The World

Likewise I have had some bad days traveling but for the most part it’s like I don’t have a care in the world.

Happy?

In short the other day someone asked me if I was happy.

“Happier than I have ever been”, I said.
