In this episode of the Tiny Home Tours Podcast, J and Eric Aldape share their transformative journey from working corporate jobs and living in a traditional house to adopting a nomadic lifestyle. They recount their initial leap into nomadism, which took them from 4Runner life to farm work, and finally, a stint with the Peace Corps in West Africa. The culmination of this transition inspired them to build and live full-time out of a bus. They discuss their approach to minimalism, community building, and the importance of personal relationships over material wealth. Listen as they share how they’ve managed to sustain their lifestyle through passion-driven work, or “hobby jobs” as J calls them, rather than traditional careers. The episode offers practical advice for those considering a similar lifestyle shift, emphasizing the value of attending nomad gatherings and embracing slow living.
