Replacing a roof vent in the motorhome - videos.trom.tf/w/qXUkwFVhsF4UB…
Our top bed roof vent sucked. So we bought a very slim one called Roofstar 4. In theory it is easy to add it. But of course like all things, it is more difficult than you think. Anyway now we love this roof vent and it makes a big difference. We can even stargaze from the bed 😃

I use less than 5L of water to shower in our motorhome and I take a very decent shower. It is all about knowing how to use that water. Likely a shower at home would use over 10 times that. Here is the water consumption in EU on average:
statista.com/chart/19591/avera…
The average human in Spain consumes in a day as much as we two consume in a week in our motorhome.

Tio makes an apple pie in the motorhome (super easy) - videos.trom.tf/w/bPTrNPzGkXgF2…
You only need 5 eggs, 4 apples, a bit of sugar, flour and oil. And you can make a super tasty apple pie. You can use any other fruit so go wild with it! 😃
This is to showcase how with very little ingredients and in such a small space, you can still bake some great sweets 😃

This is it, my solo adventures have come to an end. It was a very interesting and useful experience to see how it is to live by myself in the motorhome. I saw many cool places but I was also very work-efficient and did a lot of work on our TROM projects. Overall, a great experience!

This is how much it costs me, Tio, to travel by myself. I only need food, fuel, and internet data. I have visited some very nice places in the mountain and spent some quiet time by myself.

Tio Solo and the craziest offroad with the motorhome! - videos.trom.tf/w/35UnP9SG73Z8W…
Tio went for a month solo with the motorhome in the North East of Spain. This is how he coped with it 😃. This is also the craziest road we have taken our motorhome on, some 1KM climb via a 12KM dirt road. But at the end of the road it was Paradise. That was in Queralbs, more specifically the Fontalba parking.

Dying of heat in Spain...and fixing the shower tub - videos.trom.tf/w/1DNNLUCRtsbW7…
This video is to show you how Tio was melting in Spain in July/August in a parking lot. It was so hot, easily over 30 degrees inside the motorhome almost every single day. He had 6-7 fans running almost nonstop. He also fixed our terribly looking shower tub and did other things to the motorhome. Enjoy the pain 😃

Costs of full-time living in a motorhome in Spain - videos.trom.tf/w/upM7VpUx5Nzjn…
This is how much it costs for 2 people living full-time in a motorhome in Spain. From food, fuel, internet, repairs, everything. In short it is a lot cheaper than renting something in Spain.

I calculated my expenses of living full time in the motorhome by myself. Food, Fuel, Internet, gas tanks...and is under 500 Euros which is amazing! Cannot live with less in Spain. I am not missing out on anything I have all I need.
I am still in the mountains :).
Life is good. Working on some scripts for some TROM videos.

Last stops before we took a break: La Torre de Cabdella and Castellar de n’ Hug. Wonderful places. But we had to then take a break, make some money, so that we can continue our adventures. We were lucky to come across 2 wonderful motorhome parking places right before our adventure ended. See you with new videos soon! 😃

The most alien place we found... - videos.trom.tf/w/2i7qJnNxoU7vp…
Bardenas Reales is a place in the north of Spain. A desert with odd shaped structures. I, Tio, saw these structures in a documentary with Brian Cox called Solar System - you can watch it here videoneat.com/documentaries/26… - so I looked for the place only to find out it is in Spain.
It is one of those unique places that you may never forged 😃.

If there is one place that we liked the most, it was the Cares Trail in Picos de Europa. Amazing trail between huge mountains. You feel so small, yet contaminated with awe. We found goats, little waterfalls, and saw snowy peaks. This is a place we must go again to!

I don't want to know how much water I use to shower 🙈 🥲
I don't think I'd be okay with having to wipe off my utensils instead of washing them, but I guess it makes sense in a motorhome considering limited water storage. Life in the motorhome might be an extreme example but in general I agree that people should be mindful of their resource usage..... I feel like it'd be better to use water from a well or something for our shower if possible, no need to have treated drinking water in our bathrooms at all.
Tio
in reply to Rokosun • •We wipe the dishes and cutlery a little bit before washing them. It is really not a bi deal and many people who use dishwashers do that before putting them in the dishwasher. As someone who always wanted comfort and wants to feel at home wherever I live, I can tell you these different practices like with the dishes or showering with little water are far from extreme :)
But yah water usage at home is insane. Maybe sensors can help, like when you are under the shower to have the water run but not when you are soaping and not directly under idk. But feels insane to consume so much water, like you go pee and flush 4-5L of fresh water for that...wtf....

Oh so you always wash it off after wiping, that makes sense. Anyway good that you feel at home with this lifestyle.....
Wait, do people not turn off their shower when soaping? Why do you need a sensor for this lol 😂 It reminds me of those ads ran by a toothpaste company on world water day showing someone who doesn't turn off his tap when brushing his teeth, it was like a PSA to get people to close their taps when not using water. I never did those things so it sounded a bit crazy to me that someone just wouldn't close their tap like that.....
4-5L of water to flush down your pee is insane man. It reminds me of a little trick I saw on YouTube one day, where you fill a 1L bottle with water and put it in your toilet's flush tank, so that way you'll be saving 1L of water on every flush. This is also why I think you shouldn't use drinkable water in your toilet or bathrooms if possible.... If you can pump ground water from a well or something that could be used instead of using treated drinkable water.
Tio
in reply to Rokosun • •Yah as far as I know people do not turn off the shower or tap while washing or brushing. For shower I also didn't do it....so yah....
And for flushing the toilet I think the best would be to use the sink water to do that. Like store the sink water into the toilet tank basically...
I am sure there are solutions for these if there is an incentive for it.

It also baffles me how people can apply soap on their bodies when the shower is running, especially if you have a small bathroom like in the motorhome - do you have space to move away from the shower stream? I usually just turn it off 'cause why keep the water running when you don't need it.
I don't know if people would be keen on reusing waste water like that, it could give off bad smell as well if not treated properly..... But we definitely don't need to use fresh water on our toilet flush that's for sure.
Maybe there will be more incentive in water scarce areas.... This conversation reminded me of this video I watched a while ago -
Yeah resource management is more complex than people realize.....
Tio
in reply to Rokosun • •No in the motorhome I dont think anyone does that. I used to do it at home were water was "infinite" and the space was bigger.
That is true but I've seen things like this in Japan where they reuse the sink water for flushing the toilet. Thing is you flush many times a day so that water wont stay too long in the tank. Maybe that wont make it smelly idk.
Yah but what is fresh water and non fresh water? Like you need different piping system for non-fresh? And fresh doesnt mean much from what I know mea

Yah but what is fresh water and non fresh water? Like you need different piping system for non-fresh? And fresh doesnt mean much from what I know meaning it goes to some filters and has some stuff added to it. But to have another system for non fresh water seems a lot of headache for big cities or towns.

I didn't know Japan had such a system, that is so cool. And by fresh water I mean drinkable water, the one you get from the tap has usually gone through some processes to make it safe to drink. And I don't mean to do it on a city scale, but there are homes and apartments where they pump up ground water (from a well or something) to a separate tank - so you can use that water on your toilet and bathrooms but still get drinking water on your kitchen for example.
