Living on the road means scaling back, and getting rid of a lot of stuff…pretty much everything in fact. Instead of a ton of stuff for all their respective purposes, we prefer investing in a few of the right things, that can serve many purposes. This is, besides our clothing and bathroom gear, everything that we currently own.

Traveler’s Pick

A few special objects get a little extra praise, both for their cleverness in product design and absolute handiness for living tiny/ full time glamping

Sea To Summit Pocket Towel
This super smart towel takes up less space than a bar of soap in the bathroom tote.

Made with ultra-absorbent micro-fibre polyester/polyamide blend, this towel is soft, large enough to cover most of the torso of the body, and completely usable when wet or dry. It rolls up easily to fit into it’s case, and drys quickly when hanging. Because it absorbs up to 3x its weight in water, it is also effective when damp, so if you need to role it up and pack it away wet, that OK too. This is essential if backpacking or even if Glamping.

PUR 3-Stage Silver Matte Horizontal Faucet Mount FM-9100B

Living in a camper is great, hooking up to water is as easy as plugging the hose in…which means your water may taste like hose, unless you invest in a water filter. Our micro-living camper has a cute little bar sink, so this filter that sits to the side of the faucet, instead of hanging below facet…is perfect for us.

Decorative Key Rail, White/Silver, 4 Hooks/Pack

This space saver is a must have in a camper. It’s nail free and so cute on the wall!

Electronics

iPhone 6

Lots of cell phones are handy multipurpose tools, but what we love most about the iPhones are their exceptional photo taking abilities. As the technology continues to perform, this small tool can be a powerful camera, and still fit easily in the pocket. Only downsides to the 6 is that it is very breakable. Unlike it’s invincible older sister, the 5c, the iPhone 6 DEFINITELY needs a case to go adventuring with you.

Jetpack® 4G LTE Mobile Hotspot—AC791L

If you are on the road, but your job, source of income, or video streaming happiness requires a hookup to fast internet, the Jetpack AC791L is your pal. RV campgrounds have patchy wifi, which may be fine for email and Facebook. But for anything heavier, you’ll need a lightning fast internet connection.

Apple MacBook Pro

Any light-weight super powerful laptop would be handy for a life on the road, but we prefer our apple MacBooks. They are resilient, powerful, elegant tools, that can be used day in and day out for years.

Camp Cooking

Bialetti Italian Coffee Maker

It meets our needs of “small” and “indestructible” so we like it. The taste is closer to an espresso so we add in water to make Americanos. We’re adjusting to the new taste which is why we gave this [propduct 4.5 stars, but the coffee maker works great!

Rachael Ray Nonstick Skillet Set, Pumpkin Orange

Rachael Ray Cucina Hard Porcelain Enamel Nonstick Skillet Set, 9.25-Inch and 11-Inch, Pumpkin Orange

Most beautiful cookware we’ve ever purchased. Does the job and it’s in our favorite color, what’s not to like?

Rachael Ray Nonstick Saucepan, Gray with Orange Handle

Rachael Ray Hard Anodized Aluminum Nonstick 3-Quart Covered Saucepan, Gray with Orange Handle

Lodge LCC3 Cast Iron Combo Cooker

We’ve been dreaming of a cast iron skillet for years. This combo allows us to bake in a cast iron oven over camp fire coals. This has not disappointed. It was well seasoned in vegetable oils so we had no problem with sticking and the food has been coming out great!

Silicone Colander Collapsible Strainer 4 Qt. Dishwasher Safe

As a space saver, this thing is great. Folds up flat and takes up minimal space.

AROMA 3-Cup Mini Rice Cooker

The cutest little rice maker! It only makes 3 cups of rice at a time, which is perfect for two people. The only thing we don’t like is when it begins boiling the water sometimes comes out the vent. We just put a towel underneath it and voila! Perfect rice every time.

New Ikat Dinner Plate Set of 4

Beautiful for a regular plastic plate.

Ikat Melamine Cereal Bowl Set of 4

As eco-consious folks we try our best to avoid plastic, but these unbreakable, decorative gems we couldn’t resist.

Cole & Mason Cube Precision Pepper Mill, Acrylic

Cole & Mason Cube Precision Mill

As with all our products, we needed these to be unbreakable which they definitely are. They grind well and take up minimal space which we love!

Vista Premium Quality Plastic 10″ Serving Bowl – Set of 2

Yes, this is a regular ol’ mixing bowl. Clear, beautiful, and functional, when it’s time to marinate, mix, or stir, these bowls are perfect.

MuLuo Plastic Travel Soap Dish Box

This was a big one for Jessi. What’s worse than putting your soap away only to find soap film everywhere? Nothing is worse, according to her. So this tiny little gem has really saved us from such disasters.

InterDesign Remy Vegan Patent Leather Tote for Bathroom Shower

Bringing it back to the good ol’ college days with this shower caddy. This vegan leather tote (yes, this is really a thing) fits all of our essentials: lotion, shampoo, conditioner, hairbrush, tooth brushes, tooth paste, contact lenses, deodorant, and both towels without a problem. This is a perfect item to grab and go to the shower with!

GSI Outdoors Glacier Stainless Pint Set

Trying to be eco friendly we got these cups to try to limit our plastic. They are pretty, yes, but a bit pricey, the cups get hot with coffee, and there’s a slight metal taste to them. They do the job but not our favorite item.

RV Essentials

Before you hit the road, there are a few things you need for your new RV lifestyle that standard tents don’t require.It’s not glamours, but if you want to use your camping amenities, all of these are essential!

Camco 22783 TastePURE Drinking Water Hose (5/8″ID x 25′) – Lead Free

We us our indoor sink daily. Making coffee in the morning, tea in the afternoon, washing our hands etc. The only way to accomplish all this is with this nifty water hose. Hooked right up to the campsite and fulfills all your water needs.

Camco 57203 Pop-A-Toothbrush

Ever brushed your teeth after it bathed in shampoo residue? We have! And isn’t fun. This little gizmo utilizes wall space while sparing us from soap flavored toothpaste. What’s not to love?

Camco 25543 T Level
