Ashley Mann spent three years living full time in a 38-foot, 5th-wheel RV with her husband Josiah and their cat, Kitty. Her favorite thing about RV life is the challenge of finding the perfect way to organize a space, and she loves seeing all the creative and clever ways people come up with to customize their RVs.
If you want your RV to look Instagram-worthy, you don't necessarily need to renovate your camper from bumper to bumper. The boho-style RV renovations in this article include brand-new RVs, vintage trailers, giant fifth wheels, and tiny campers. Any RV can be turned into a beautiful glamper with a little decor and good design.
Now let's look at some pictures!

Wife and I bought our first RV. A 1998 Jamboree…
I’m interested in starting a travel blog with the options of getting some sort of small income from the advertising. Any advice or help would be so appreciative.
Sincerely

Hi! Here’s a resource I put together on my personal website that will give you some basic info to get started, and you can email me with additional questions through that link as well! 🙂
What do people do with all the furniture and decor when they are traveling?
Most of it is left in place. Things hung on walls can stay there as long as they are not breakable, and items set on shelves can be held in place using museum putty or acrylic mounting tape. Some items may be packed into a box or basket. The furniture is usually secured using bungee cords and tie-down straps.
Thinking about journaling our campsites for later referencing. I’d like to keep in mind numbered campsites, easy access and great views for future reservations, pros and cons, etc.. Do you recommend any notebooks or ideas for doing so?
I would recommend the Complete RV Travel Planner from Streets Wander…it is available in a digital or spiral bound version, and is very thorough!
