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 😅
Wishing you both the best of luck with it! 🤗

TROMhome:
This is our new, and kinda personal, project tromhome.com/
Although it is also about TROM.
This will be our home and it will take us to many new places, meeting many new people and projects. We will talk to people about TROM, try to organize talks and meetings, volunteer for all sorts of trade-free projects, and make videos about all of our adventures.
That’s the plan at least 😀 !
We have released a fundraiser to help us a bit if possible. See gofundme.com/f/help-us-get-the…

In short: This is Tio and Sasha. And we will soon have a TROMhome https://tromhome.com/ F… Tio TROM needs your support for Help us buy the TROMhomegofundme.com

We are already seeing some motorhomes :D - they are very expensive for our budget, but we will buy one, one way or another. Move there, call it TROMhome, travel, make videos, continue the work on TROM, meet more people, go to events, spread the word.
I will also do a donation campaign for the motorhome in case anyone wants to help out :D. Mind you we do a lot of free stuff so any help to buy a motorhome, is a help to allow us to maintain these projects and do more of them.
Campaign: end of the next month.
Motorhome: maybe end of this year or sooner. I hope.
TROMhome Peertube Exclusive video series :D : maybe starting next month. I would like to take you on our adventure even before we buy the motorhome. Could be interesting.
New TROM stuff? I hope in parallel to start to publish some new books/articles starting next month- I hope!
