Brendan and Sam Binger are a couple in their twenties, traveling through America fulltime in their RV. They became self-employed when they moved into the RV and now work from the road while exploring all of the incredible sights, places, and experiences that the US has to offer.

Their renovated rig is not only a cozy home for Brendan and Sam, but also for their 5 pets and nearly 100 plants! Tune in to hear how they renovated their RV to fit their family and how they care for pets and plants while working and living in an RV.

RVing advice from Life Among Pines

  • Remodel your rig to fit your lifestyle and make it your own special home.
  • Rent a rig before you buy one, especially to see how your pets will handle RVing. Some pets reeeeally do not like drive days. Put together a plan for how you’ll handle this.
  • Research like crazy before you buy an RV. The more prepared you are, the better!
  • If you’re going to travel full-time or for long periods, move slower to avoid getting burned out.
  • Cactus are great plants for RVing and are easy to manage on the road.
