What Kind Of Nomad Are You?

Firstly too much advice for nomads kills the vibe. Learn more In What-Kind-Of-Nomad-Are-You-Bob Davis Podcast 1036 it’s time to talk about the independent spirit of being a nomad.

Advice Spewing Nomads

Secondly we may as well talk about the sudden proliferation of advice spewing nomad ‘gurus’.

Disclaimer

Most importantly there is a disclaimer.

Above all recently I slowed my travel roll.

Community

And I’ve met many people in the so called nomad community.

So when I point out something I think kills the independent spirit I am not talking about specific people.

Tribal Chiefs

However It’s becoming obvious there are nomad ‘gurus’ out there becoming chiefs of traveling bands of wanderers.

What Kind Of Nomad Am I?

Therefore I ask myself what kind of nomad am I?

Freedom

Certainly I began this mission to get away from people telling me what to do and how to live.

Self Discovery

Even more this is a mission of self discovery.

No Advice Please

For example I am the kind of nomad that doesn’t want advice even if it hurts me!

Learning Through Experience

In the same vein I want to make mistakes because I learn through experience.

Do What We’re Told Now?

Moreover what kind of nomads are we if we buy what we’re told to buy.

Go where we’re told to go.

Live the way someone else tells us to?

Why Did You Hit The Road

To sum up isn’t this the reason many of us hit the road? To be free?

YouTube

Finally I hear so many people talking about what so and so said on YouTube.

Shh. Listen!

I wonder whether we’re still hearing that voice within.

A Long Line Of Explorers

That is to say we join a long line of explorers and travelers who started with nothing and learned everything along the way.

Self Discovery

Including learning to discover themselves.

Mistakes and Learning

To sum up making mistakes is part of learning.

Why Do You Wander?

Moreover most people wander for various heartfelt reasons.

Be Prepared

It might not be all about what kind of batteries you have or whether you use a down blanket or not.

Be prepared.

But be prepared to be wrong, to make mistakes and discover yourself.

Happy-Nomad-New-Year-Bob Davis Podcast 1034

Happy Nomad New Year

Firstly last year’s Happy Nomad New Year was down on the Arizona Mexico Border. I was alone. This year there will be lots of community and friendship. Learn more in Happy-Nomad-New-Year-Bob Davis Podcast 1034.

Long Time Friends

Secondly I am joined in this podcast by long time friend John Holland.

Considering The Nomad Life

These days there’s a lot of people considering the nomad life.

Certainly John is not alone in this interest.

New Year’s

So he rented a van, threw his gear in the back and headed out to the desert to join us for New Year’s.

Above all that’s a great opportunity for a podcast and we didn’t miss it.

Quartzsite Everybody

Therefore in Happy-Nomad-New-Year-Bob Davis Podcast 1034 we talk about John’s tour of Quartzsite Arizona.

2022 Desert Hang Out

During this podcast I realize I’ve been talking a lot recently about where I am hanging out right now.

Appreciate Where I Am

Most importantly as I reevaluate what I am doing and make plans for the second year of the nomad experience I certainly have come to appreciate where I am.

Partial To The Quirky

That is to say I am partial to what some might call quirky and dusty desert towns like this one.

Details

But we also share quite a lot of details about what first timers deal with on the road.

Fun

And have some fun in the process.

Nomad Mecca

Consequently it ended up being a fun audio tour of what has become the nomad mecca.

Serving The Nomads

Further we talk about many of the small businesses here that do such a great job serving nomads of all stripes and walks of life.

For example the Coyote Market and Road Runner markets and my personal favorite the MAGA Campground.

Yes there is a MAGA campground.

Desert Rats

Even more John and I believe we have discovered a tremendous business opportunity in ridding campers of the scourge of desert rats!

But you’ll have to listen to the end for that.

To sum up I probably won’t be in this spot forever but I am having a blast for the time being.

Grateful

And very grateful for the community, friendship and fun.

Happy Nomad New Year

American-Dream-To-Nightmare-Bob Davis Podcast 1031

American Dream To Nightmare

Above all it seems like we have brought the American Dream To Nightmare and you can learn more in American-Dream-To-Nightmare-Bob Davis Podcast 1031

Not A Rant

Firstly this is not a rant about how bad things are.

Nomads Are Not Anxious or Exhausted

Secondly this is about how anxiety back in the world doesn’t seem to effect nomads.

New Research About American Life Is Not Good

Most importantly research shows people are waking up in the middle of the night and end up tired all day.

Boundaries Gone

In addition all boundaries seem to have evaporated. It’s all in American-Dream-To-Nightmare-Bob Davis Podcast 1031.

Bad Food

Finally our eating habits are worse then ever.

Sugar Highs Drinking And Drugging

Even more drinking and drugging seems to be the order of the day.

Gone Nuts

Seems like the whole world has gone nuts.

Back In The World

On the other hand I don’t feel it as much as my friends back in the world.

Wonder Years To X-Files

Moreover the much vaunted American Dream’s Wonder Years seem have been replaced with the X-Files.

Desert Life Means No Anxiety

Meanwhile out here in the desert the anxiety doesn’t seem to reach us.

Choosing The Nomad Life

In the same vein my peace is due to choosing the nomad life.

High Vibration

And the nomad life is a very high vibration.

So it works for me.

Consequently don’t let the title of this podcast scare you.

New American Dream

For example there’s no reason a New American Dream can’t take hold and flourish.

Freedom To Choose

That is to say a dream where we we have the freedom to choose the life we define.

Take This Job and Shove It

Maybe this is why so many people are singing ‘Take This Job and Shove it’.

Hit The Road

For example I threw the baby out with the bath water.

Hitting the road permanently.

You Might Not Need The Extreme Approach

On the other hand someone else’s dream might not require such an extreme approach.

Better Nutrition

Finally it’s about proper nutrition and living better.

Choices We Can Make

Most importantly these are choices we can make.

Taking Back Control Of Our Life

To sum up creating The New American Dream may have something to do with seizing control.

Brink Of Madness

In short it’s time to take our lives back from the brink of madness.

And if it means making an offer on your old man’s 1996 RV…

Then I’ll save a spot for you in Quartzsite!
