Hello From Denmark

Postby Maxine » Wed Apr 20, 2016 10:30 am

I am a 49 year old women that wants to go to USA for Vandwelling soon. I am working on getting the finances together and then I will take the jump.
I want to participate in the metting in Phøenix in January and from then of I can go anywhere.
I would like to meet you all and learn from you about the US and living in a van. Whre to do whar and not :-)

I am also interested in meeting Women Scrollers, if there are any?

I am driwing alone, except for 2 weeks where my wife will be with me. (She goes back to Denmark to Work :-))

Do you have any ideas about how to find a Van or RV.

Smile from Maxine

Welcome from SW Ohio.....
Not sure who or what Women Scrollers are so I guess that means I am not one. :)

I think the internet will give you a good idea of where the vans and/or small RV are. Some areas of the country do seem to have more vehicles available than others. Researching and knowing what sort of vehicle (size and features) you are interested in will also help. Nothing beats seeing and walking around inside and out though. Have you camped or traveled in similar fashions before in Denmark or other countries?

Welcome from Illinois Maxine. Sorry I also don't know what a scroller is. I did an internet search and looks like it's something do to with scroll saws. If that's correct I found a website for you that lists clubs across the USA.

Welcome, Maxine. Glad to have you with us and wish you every success in finding the right vehicle for you. I have a Class C but can only tell you I took advantage of all the internet sites advertising them for sale.

I want to take advantage of as much time in your country as I can. That means up to 6 month! It would be to expensive to rent for so long time so I will buy a vehicle!
I am looking on a high Van, Converted Van, 10´Box truck.... There are so many ways to do it. I have so much to learn.
I will do the best I can to find a vehicle and participate in the RTR in Phoenix in January to get some starting help.

There is time before January so will se :-)
