Listen "21. How Full-Time RVers Keep the Magic Alive : Holidays on the Road"
Episode Synopsis
The holidays feel different when you live full-time in an RV — but the magic is still very real. In this festive episode of RV Trash Talk, the whole crew shares how they celebrate Thanksgiving, Christmas, and all the holiday moments that come with life on the road. Whether it's cooking breakfast casseroles, keeping beloved traditions from their sticks-and-bricks days, or managing the excitement (and stress!) of kids who still believe in Santa and Elf on the Shelf, this episode is filled with laughter and relatable holiday chaos. They talk about decorating tiny spaces, choosing between real and fake trees, mailing gifts ahead of time, FaceTiming family across the country, and how to cook full holiday meals despite limited oven space. From Chinese food after cutting real trees, to corn casserole, homemade manicotti, smoked pork, Christmas pajamas, and cheesecake — food and fun are definitely still part of RV life. If you've ever wondered what celebrating the holidays looks like for full-time RVers, this episode brings honesty, humor, and a warm look at family traditions on the road. 👉 Listen for cozy vibes, holiday laughs, and real RV-life traditions you can steal.
