Built To Go! A #Vanlife Podcast21 Apr 2021

071 JOY of vanlife, Gator Eyes, Bar Fight, Dismalites, CRAZY Cheap Power Centers, Nomadic Pantry

No negativity! Let's talk about what a JOY #vanlife is! And we'll also visit some drooling insects, find ourselves in a bar fight, find some CRAZY good prices on "solar generators," review some innovative lights and promote the Van Life Nomadic Pantry.

We now have a Discord Server! What’s that? It’s a place to share and ask questions with the host of Built to GO and other listeners. It’s a new community, so it will take some time to get to size, but you can be part of that! This link will take you to a video that explains the concept. Join us!
