We were full time for 11months 2020-2021, then we settled in S.E. Georgia. We will still continue to travel and explore a whole new area. Favorite bw host sites Locations: Charlie in Belle, FL and John in Brooksville, FL.. Skills or Expertise to Share: Ron knows about horses/military/aircraft. Electrician/carpenter etc.... We love hosting and welcoming campers. We did this at our home in Vermont and now here in SE Georgia..Hope to see you soon. Take a break from this crazy world we live in. God Bless R&S
