Two years on the road with a cat named Zhuzu — and not a single day of wanting to go back. We break down life in a camper van: where to find water, how heating works, what to do about electricity, and where to look for overnight spots. 7 countries, hundreds of places, and an honest account — from the mountain roads of Turkey to the coastline of Montenegro.

Residents of Mesa, Arizona, increasingly own RVs due to the city's strong outdoor recreation culture. The sunny climate, desert trails, mountains, and nearby lakes make RVs a practical choice for families, retirees, and adventure seekers. Owners can easily travel across the state, using RVs for camping, fishing, and mountain trips. Local dealerships and a wide range of models (from travel trailers to Class A motorhomes) support this trend.
The recreational vehicle market continues to expand, transforming travel habits. According to Mordor Intelligence, the market size was valued at approximately USD 35.66 billion in 2026 and is expected to reach around USD 52.74 billion by 2031, growing at a compound annual growth rate of about 8.14%. Growth is driven by factors such as remote work adoption, digitalization, and demand for flexible travel, while high costs and infrastructure limitations remain key challenges.
Soaring rent and mortgage costs combined with remote work adoption are making RV living a financially viable alternative to traditional housing. Individuals leverage mobility to reduce expenses, while campgrounds adapt by offering high-speed internet. Key challenges include maintenance costs, fuel expenses, and finding reliable parking spots.

Back-to-back floods in the Texas Hill Country have heavily impacted RV parks and campgrounds, which are particularly vulnerable in one of the most flood-prone regions in the U.S. At least 44 of the 119 people who died in Kerr County last year were staying in RVs or rental cabins, with 39 swept away from two adjacent parks, HTR TX Hill Country and Blue Oak RV Park, according to the San Antonio Express-News. The flooding has prompted debate over whether cities and counties should further limit where RVs and cabins can be located, balancing restrictions with the appeal of riverfront living. Andrew Rumbach of the Urban Institute noted that RV parks often sit in flood zones due to scenic, cheaper land, but light, unanchored vehicles can be quickly engulfed by water, making escape impossible.
A large fire broke out Wednesday night at Robinson's Whitewater River Campground in Connersville, Indiana, amid historic flash flooding.

The Whitewater River is expected to crest at 23 feet around 2 p.m. Thursday.
