In episode 152 of our podcast, we decided to find out by handing the mic to our daughters and asking them a mix of real-life questions, honest reflections, and a few totally ridiculous scenarios.

After six years of living full-time on the road, they’re basically pros and trust us, they’ve got opinions.

What Kids Think About RV Living

They opened up about their favorite places we’ve traveled to, which campground still stands out in their minds and the one spot they’d return to in a heartbeat. We talked about what they miss from house life, what they love most about living in an RV, and which snacks are an absolute must on move days.

They’ve been RVing since they were little, and after six years, they’ve seen it all—from the best campsites to the worst dump stations. So when they talk about this lifestyle, they’re not guessing. They’re speaking from serious experience.

We also got into how it feels to do school while traveling and the weirdest animals they’ve seen out in the wild. They shared their favorite family activities, the trails they love most, and what it’s like living with your entire family in a few hundred square feet. If you’ve ever wondered what kids really think about RV life—the fun, the frustrations, and everything in between—you’ll want to hear what they had to say.

This episode wasn’t just fun to record—it reminded us why we chose this lifestyle. Hearing the girls reflect on their experiences, laugh at the weird stuff, and dream about what’s next gave us a new perspective. Sometimes, when driving, planning, cooking, teaching, and repairing, you forget how much magic your kids are soaking in along the way.

If you’re a parent dreaming about full-time travel and wondering how your kids might feel about RV living, this episode is a must-listen. Their honest answers may surprise you.

We believe the best part of RV life isn’t just the places you go, it’s the conversations you have along the way. From long drives to late-night campfires, we’ve learned that giving kids a voice in this journey makes it even more meaningful. Their stories, questions, and perspectives shape how we travel. And episodes like this remind us: the road may be long, but it’s full of small, unforgettable moments if you’re paying attention.

And hey—if you’re listening with your kids, we’d love to hear their answers to some of these questions! Click the message below and send us a voice clip. Who knows?

Until then, thanks for joining us for another behind-the-scenes peek into life on the road. We’re so glad you’re on this adventure with us.
