Whether retired, traveling solo or RVing with small children, the thought of not being able to get good healthcare on the road is one of the biggest deterrents holding people back from pursuing their travel dreams. Fortunately, there are more options today than ever before. So, don’t let fear of not being able to find affordable care hold you back.
Buying an RV is often infinitely easier to do than learning how to drive or tow one. For many people, driving a motorhome or towing a trailer is significantly more challenging than operating the largest SUV or minivan.
Don’t sell yourself short; an interview is your time to shine!
While scouring the help wanted ads, you found the ideal Workamping job for you. So, you create an awesome resume, submit it to the employer and cross your fingers. A short time later, you get the call you’ve been waiting for – the company wants to interview you for the job.
This is a critical step in the application process. Your resume gets you noticed by an employer, but the interview seals the deal.

"I was in a soul-crushing position that had taken over my life," she explained. "I bought a Class C motorhome and hopped on the road to get into nature so I could relax."
Lost Alaskan RV Park in Alpine, Texas, was named after its original owner, who literally worked as a bush pilot in Alaska when he opened the campground. When local residents referred to him as “the Lost Alaskan,” the name stuck.
Arizona is one of the most naturally-diverse states in America. From the Grand Canyon and red rocks of Sedona, to the giant cactuses of Saguaro National Park in Tucson to the mountain waterfalls in Tonto National Forest, Arizona is a beautiful state.
Thousands of Workampers are hired every year. When they aren’t working, they are hiking, kayaking, tubing, canoeing, rafting and biking. There are a plethora of state and national parks, monuments, quaint towns, wineries and restaurants serving authentic Mexican food as well as delicacies from around the world.
Located outside the small community of Half Moon Bay, Calif., but only 30 minutes from downtown San Francisco, Lemos Farm is a combination amusement park and family farm.
Visitors can interact with a variety of farm animals, enjoy pony rides, travel around the grounds on a vehicle-pulled train, or try their hand at operating a real excavator. People can even do yoga with some goats, or enjoy a snack and sandwich from the deli.
The Workamping experience can be frustrating when expectations are not met. The best way to improve expectations is by ensuring you have a very good idea of everything a Workamper opportunity will entail before you and your RV roll in to start a new job.
It’s possible that an interview can go very well and a job seem like a perfect match because the employer and Workamper made a great connection over the phone or via webinar. Later, things can sour when one or the other’s expectations aren’t being met.
Email really helped make the RV lifestyle easier for Workampers, no question about that. It is convenient to get statements and other notices delivered electronically.
Yet, even in 2023, there are still enough things sent via snail mail that you’ll want them delivered to you wherever you may be traveling. Greeting cards are among those items and so are magazines. End-of-year tax documents are important, too. Business owners who get paid by check or who have items shipped to them also need a way to have mail delivered.
You’ve found a great job with a wonderful company in a fabulous location. You couldn’t be more excited about your next Workamping gig.
