Content creator Yuly Núñez (@yulynunez_coachdemamitas) recently addressed a follower's question on TikTok about the potential dangers of living in an RV in the United States. Her answer turned heads, with Yuly asserting that the real risk lies in falling in love with this lifestyle so deeply that returning to a "normal" life seems undesirable.
In her video, Yuly elaborates on how living in an RV can significantly cut down on utility expenses, allowing for savings towards the dream of homeownership. More importantly, it provides the opportunity to embark on adventures and visit places one might otherwise only see in photographs. "Do you know how many places in the United States you can explore, places you've only seen in photos, videos, or books, that you can take your children to?", she expressed with excitement.
Yuly passionately defends this way of living, emphasizing that it is not about poverty or being "crazy," but rather about valuing experiences—an insight many gained after the pandemic. "Life is too short, and experiencing beautiful moments is the most important thing, especially if you can do it with your family," she stated. For her, the real danger is continuing to "pay someone else's bills" while fearing to pursue one's dreams.
Community Reactions and Insights
The response from her followers was swift. Some voiced their support: "Exactly, I lived in an RV for 8 years, saved up, and was able to buy my house." Others highlighted the perks of mobility in the face of natural disasters: "I was thinking of driving somewhere else if there's a hurricane threat... it's an advantage." Some expressed their longing to experience this lifestyle: "My longing, I hope one day to start the life I have always wanted."
Of course, there were also those who questioned this lifestyle or pointed out potential legal restrictions in certain states: "You're right, but there are states where, if you have children and live in an RV, it's forbidden, and the state can take your kids away due to lack of a stable home, those are their excuses." Yuly took it upon herself to clarify any doubts in the comments, offering guidance to those interested in following her path by suggesting they search for "RV parks" on Google or check out Facebook Marketplace for purchasing options.
Other comments showed interest and even admiration. "It's an expensive lifestyle, but beautiful, I love it"; "Congratulations, you've discovered a lifestyle that Americans with money have practiced for years. Your comment holds all the truth," they remarked.
Yuly's video has garnered hundreds of likes and sparked an engaging conversation about the benefits and challenges of living in an RV in the United States.
