Motorhome is DONE part 1: Security Systems - videos.trom.tf/w/jMbYy9evRHwKy…
We finished renovating our motorhome and we want to present it in detail. In this first part we are showcasing what security measures we have taken to protect thieves from stealing our motorhome, or even breaking in.
We added a device to disconnect the car battery, a steering wheel lock, even some straps to lock the doors together.

Relaxing at the river and getting a new carpet - videos.trom.tf/w/1M8iYmHeiVTLT…
Just a relaxing day at the river. Nice, cozy, calm. Nature 😃. We've also bought a big carpet to put in the motorhome to make it cozy and keep it clean.

We made a huge hole in the motorhome to put a fan in the bathroom. - videos.trom.tf/w/9ooUYcC5ZqjB8…
Well, it went exactly as wrong as we were fearing. Very bad! But we managed to fix it. And we broke our second electric tool while doing this.
Putting an extraction fan in the bathroom is really a must!

I think if I'd live 678 years I would never get bored and I would have new projects to do all the time. I feel like I want to do a lot. And I do a lot every day, but the days are too short for my motivation and drive. The weeks, the months, are flying by so fast. The years, still more ahead than behind, but soon they will balance, and then you'll ride the ones ahead. But it's all about making the best of this ride, even tho too short.
This year we have a motorhome, very little money, and a lot of plans.
Make sure you follow us on Peertube videos.trom.tf/c/tromhome/vide… - we will go chase the darkest skies in Spain, meet with some wonderful friends from the project, volunteer, and do a lot.

We replaced all of the windows' blinds with new ones - videos.trom.tf/w/k1kdbjbDaBBJU…
We decided that replacing all of the windows' blinds is quite a must from a privacy and security perspective. And it was not too difficult to put the new ones. This may be a useful video for those who want to do this for their own motorhome.

We now have a Wishlist for our TROMhome project because we are broke and if anyone wants to help they can directly do so. Here tromhome.com/#wishlist
For example we need to put a satellite dish (a Starlink Mini) so that I can keep our servers updated, do backups, upload our TROMjaro ISOs from the middle of nowhere, and in general be available online to help with the TROM projects. We need it specifically for my work on TROM.
So if anyone can help we have a GoFundMe for it gofundme.com/f/help-us-get-a-s… (450 Euros). I hate that they are putting satellites into the orbit, but we have no better option in Europe. The monthly fee of 72 Euros is also gigantic for us, but again I need an unlimited Internet access...
If anyone can help that'd be fantastic. If not is ok we will buy it eventually.
Thank you in advance! :)

Putting our first solar panels! videos.trom.tf/w/eFaTmRTaSVtbK…
We put 260W of solar panels on the roof and connected them to our Bluetti AC180. And we had to do part of it in the dark.
We post only on @PeerTube despite getting a lot less views there, for now, than we would on Youtube. But we need to create new/original content on Peertube if we are to make it more popular.
On top of that I love Peertube. No ads, no bullshit. Just a sane video platform.

We had to replace our shower too. And we found more water damage.... videos.trom.tf/w/q6bun7xvVUbvj…
Another bad surprise but in the end we managed to put a much better shower and hopefully stop the water infiltration. See the ROBO PENIS we made! 😃

We took out the cassette toilet and found rotten wood :/ videos.trom.tf/w/9kevhf7pmLtp1…
We will explain why we decide to go for a "dry" toilet instead of a cassette one in another video, but taking this toilet out revealed the nightmare for motorhomers: rotten wood. Water infiltration. But we fixed it! 😃

I am trying to do some work from the motorhome for TROM and WebApe...I eat GB like a blue whale eats plankton. :D - I've put 100GB on my phone, using it as a hotspot. I have 50GB left now. After a few days...
This is why when we come back in January and start to live full time in the motorhome we will probably put a satellite internet with an unlimited plan. Mobile plans suck - only available per tribe....and in Europe, living in a motorhome, makes 0 sense.
We've also ordered 260W more of solar panels. We already have 260W on the roof that we put ourselves. Plus a new 1280W lifepo4 lithium battery. We decided to have enough power and be fully broke. It is what it is.
But feels great to get back online bit by bit. Doing my "normal" work. And doing it from here:

I made some shelves for the motorhome :) - videos.trom.tf/w/1iJnjg2QKTDvZ…
It may sound simple but it was a bit tricky. This is our main closet. Really big for us!

We got fooled by a good looking motorhome
Unfortunately our "perfect" motorhome is not that perfect it seems. After a mechanical inspection we decided not to buy it.videos.trom.tf

That's probably the reason she drop 2k so easily :)
From my experience when some one ok to drop the price quite significantly that's usually a bad sign. Unless it's your friend or the person you know. Normally if the stuff you are selling is good, and your price is not too high you not onging to drop it, unless maybe you are really desperate to sell it.
Good luck for your further searches.

We may have found the perfect motorhome. Plus was GoFundMe a mistake? - videos.trom.tf/w/suHmXNPUBLUUW…
We are searching for a good motorhome in Europe to buy. Second hand of course, and around 20-24 years old. It is what we can afford. Luckily we may have found one! 😃

The american "motorhomes" are honestly insane...
The motorhome we are looking to buy is maybe a bit bigger than that pickup truck in the photo haha. Even if someone would give me that motorhome and it won't be an issue driving or parking it, I would sell it day one and buy a "normal" motorhome.
It is simply insane to me how in US people don't look at this and laugh or be shocked. That is a fucking train.

I think we found THE motorhome :D - maybe the perfect one for us :)
I'll give you more info but we need to deal with the buying of it these days. We negotiated it for 18.000 which is really great for us. We still dont have all the money so we have to borrow some. After we buy it we will be so broke it will be funny. .)) But yah, we will do it. TROMhome - tromhome.com/

Likewise. And I can really appreciate what you mean with the different dog/wolf impulses. I have both 😅
