He could start a seasonal business called "Snowbird Snips." He could cut hair during the winter in a nice, sunny snowbird area and then when they leave for spring/summer, he can leave too and travel. That way, you're not stuck, but can still build a clientele.

As a barber maybe doing service for other Nomads and publishing that on KZfaq would be interesting and build your channel. You could interview them about living that life. There are some barbers on KZfaq now but you could combine the interesting of their life along with your skill.

The issue is licensing. Most states require you to obtain a license in their state to barber. He can help nomads out, but publishing it could prove problematic.

That is one SWEET swing away spare tire mount and table! Enjoyed hearing about Vinnie’s experiences ! I think a big difference for me between living in a house/neighborhood vs. van dwelling is that it’s pretty easy to distract yourself in a house.. there’s always chores, yard work, cooking, LOTS of cleaning, hobbies, numbing out to cable TV, etc….lots of space to store stuff for activities. There’s not too much space for “stuff” in a van. So a lot of external things are stripped away and you’re left with more quiet time to reflect and work on the “internal” part of your life. This is just my personal experience of course…. I’m seldom lonely when vanning (I have two dogs with me) but I’ve definitely been emotionally uncomfortable at times working through my own emotional/Spiritual growth in the “quiet” of my van living…. The longer I stay out in my van, the more “normal” the solitude feels and much more comfortable than in the beginning. Plus the added bonus of spending way more time outside and in nature. I really didn’t realize how much I was chronically distracting myself from my thoughts living in my sticks and bricks…. 😬

Bob, your easy demeanor and delivery are calming, relaxing, and disarming. Disarming because after binging on your vids for what I thought would be entertainment, turned out to be, dare I say, "school in session" in a most enjoyable way. Well done, good sir. Well done. My grandfather said, "Experience is the only human achievement capable of displacing proffered knowledge." And you got that down. Appreciatively, Brian in Medford, Oregon. 😃

Even nomads need haircuts. Vinnie might want to consider rebranding himself as “Barber on the Go”. Use his van to advertise it. I guarantee if I ran into him in my travels, I’d pay him a fair price for a hair cut or do a contra deal with groceries or other supplies. Seems like a great guy kinda struggling with the transition into full time nomad life. I wish him much love and success.

I sick of looking for a nice cargo van. They all have 200k miles and beat to death. The Chevy Astro are 20yrs old now and again many,many miles. I stayed away from mini vans because the set so low and would not go off road. With this video I find out about Journeys Off-Road and they build lift kits for mini vans. They are only a hour or so from me in Tomahawk Kentucky. I can find a nice late model Dodge Caravan with low miles from a soccer mom and get a 3 inch lift kit, drive it to Fiberine in California and have a high top installed. I can find a good deal on a mini van, but these full size vans are just crazy today. Thanks for the interview Bob. I learned a lot and I’m looking for a AWD mini van now, or a low mile Caravan.

Hi Bob! Hi Vinnie! Have you thought about getting a used Class C from Cruise America and cutting hair in it? You don't have very much stuff with you. You could store most of it in the outside bins, leaving the inside open and free for hair cuts. I bet there are a ton of nomads who'd stop by for a haircut! The outside of a Class C is plenty big enough to advertise on. Your lifted Sienna is so seriously cool!

I would think Vinnie could cut a lot of hair around Quartzsite!

I used my old sienna family van as a camping rig until it died and I still miss it. One of the best choices. So much space. And love the lift and big tires.

I heard Box van Dee who was on your channel before Is changing her living situation I heard box van dee is going back to live in a box van. She's selling the place She's been in. She's so adorable. Dee is an amazing person she really is. I'd be honored to meet her, but I havr to take care of a disabled person & Quartzside looks like so much fun.

Thanks for sharing your amazing home with us. You have some very unexpected smart solutions you build in! I loved the cooking-table at the back behind the wheel - that is soooooo smart! Also like the way you set up the bed and the storagespace you created underneath. I love how you found creative ways for yourself to create and build things that fit your needs. You did very well. I hope you are not too lonely out on the road, and find many friends on the RTRs and just being on the road. Look after yourself well! Thanks for sharin Vinnie and Bob, bless ya both - Jason

Like you guys, I’m a Nomad at heart! I love camping! In the early 70s I bought a new AMC Gremlin. The back seat folded down and although I wasn’t able to stretch completely, I could manage to sleep in it! I went camping many, many times in it. Then I got a full size pickup truck and put a camper shell on it and built a platform for a full size mattress! It was camping heaven! I know exactly where you two are at. I am now converting a 2018 Promaster 2500 159” into a boondocking bedroom for me and the Mrs. Thanks for the interview and the channel Bob and Vinnie.

How about a mobile barber shop, you could go to different places and events van dwelers go to and cut hair 👍.
