  EP 30. RV Life & Travel Series -How to Work Camp: A Beginner’s Guide to Living Rent-Free and Getting Paid on the Road

  Sep 1, 202625 minS1

  Recap of Episode If you’ve ever wondered how you could possibly travel the country, live rent-free, and still make money, this episode is your roadmap. I’m Sarah Jones, and today I’m breaking down the real, practical ways you can use work camping to unlock financial freedom and flexibility - especially if you’re brand new to RV life and feeling overwhelmed by the “how.” Work camping isn’t just a buzzword; it’s a lifestyle strategy that lets you choose your own adventure. Whether you want to pick your dream location and find a local job (like my husband James, who rebuilds golf carts in Arizona every winter), work at RV parks for a free site and utilities, or dive into seasonal gigs at rallies, fairs, and harvests, there’s a work camping path for you. I share our real stories - like our six-week stint in Idaho where James worked for our site and utilities, plus extra paid hours - and walk you through the math so you can see how dramatically this can lower your cost of living. You’ll hear about everything from camp hosting at state parks, to working remote jobs or running an online business on the road, to finding opportunities on Facebook or by simply reaching out to parks and farms. The best part? Everything is negotiable - your site, your utilities, your pay. I want you to know that there’s no one-size-fits-all answer, and you don’t have to have it all figured out before you start. The most important thing is to try, explore, and find what fits your version of freedom. If you’re new to RV life and worried about making it work financially, this episode is packed with encouragement, real-life examples, and actionable steps. Let’s figure out how to make work camping work for you - because your adventure (and your financial freedom) starts now. What You Will Learn What is work camping and how does it work? Work camping is a flexible lifestyle where RVers exchange work - at campsites, events, or through remote jobs - for free or reduced-cost camping, allowing you to travel and lower your living expenses. How can I find a job in my favorite RV destination? You can choose where you want to stay (like Arizona, Texas, or Florida), find seasonal or part-time work with local employers, and often get invited back year after year. How does working at RV parks and resorts help me save money? Many parks offer free sites and utilities in exchange for part-time hours, with additional paid hours available - helping you reduce monthly costs and earn extra income. What are the best work camping options for new RVers? RV park work camping, camp hosting at state parks, and seasonal event gigs are ideal for beginners, offering structure, free housing, and income without long-term commitments. Can I combine workamping with a remote job or online business? Absolutely! If you have a remote job or run an online business, you can layer work camping income on top, giving you ultimate flexibility and financial stability. What should I know about negotiating work camping terms? Everything is negotiable - site fees, utilities, hourly pay - so always do the math and advocate for what you need to make it financially worthwhile. How do I find work camping opportunities if none are advertised? Beyond Facebook groups, you can proactively contact RV parks, farms, event organizers, and homesteads in your target area - many opportunities aren’t posted publicly.

  EP 29 - Wellness & Simplicity Series: Sourdough Myths Busted: How to Bake Amazing Bread in Any Kitchen (Yes, Even an RV!)

  Aug 25, 202620 minS1

  Key Takeaway: This episode of Traveling Towards Wealth with Sarah Jones shatters the most common sourdough myths, proving that anyone - even with a tiny RV kitchen and a busy schedule - can bake incredible sourdough bread. Sarah’s real-life, unfiltered approach makes sourdough simple, flexible, and totally doable for beginners and seasoned bakers alike. ️ Recap of Episode Ever felt like sourdough is only for expert bakers with fancy tools and endless free time? Think again! In this episode, Sarah Jones, your favorite financial coach and full-time traveler, shares her authentic, no-nonsense process for baking sourdough in her RV oven - up to 15 loaves in a single day. She debunks the biggest myths that keep beginners stuck, from the idea that you must feed your starter daily to the misconception that you need a kitchen full of specialty gadgets. Sarah’s supportive, adventurous voice guides you through her flexible, low-waste approach: minimal discard, no daily feeding, and hands-on time that fits around your real life. She shares practical tips for storing, reviving, and freezing sourdough, plus how to stagger batches for maximum efficiency in any kitchen. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed or intimidated by sourdough, this episode is your permission slip to start (or restart) your baking journey - with confidence, simplicity, and a whole lot of flavor. What You Will Learn Do you have to feed your sourdough starter every day? No! Sarah only feeds her starter when she’s ready to bake. The rest of the time, it lives happily in the fridge. What tools do you actually need for sourdough? Just two Dutch ovens, regular mixing bowls, a kitchen towel, and parchment paper. No fancy gadgets required. How much active time does sourdough really take? Very little. The process spans hours or days, but hands-on time is minimal - perfect for busy, multi-passionate people. How much starter and discard should you keep? Only 1–2 tablespoons in the fridge. Sarah keeps two small jars to develop deep flavor from the dark hooch. Is dark hooch on your starter a bad sign? Not at all! Dark hooch means rich, fermented flavor. The darker, the better. Do you need to follow strict timing for sourdough? Absolutely not. Sourdough is flexible - refrigerate your dough to pause the process anytime. Should you wrap your sourdough bread to keep it fresh? No need! Leave it unwrapped on the counter. If it hardens, run it under water and bake at 400°F for 8–12 minutes to revive. Can you use active starter in discard recipes? Yes! Any starter - active or inactive - works in discard recipes. Can you freeze sourdough bread? Definitely. Vacuum seal and freeze loaves, then refresh in the oven for bakery-fresh results. How do you bake multiple loaves efficiently? Stagger your batches - mix, ferment, and bake in rounds to avoid overwhelm and maximize small kitchen space. Support the show Ready to take your first step?
