For those of us who are living on the road, remaining healthy really isn't all that much less important than those who are stationary. We have our own challenges to face, and the process for what happens when ill or injured is different because we're moving around, but here are some tips from our experience to help you stay healthy.
First, considering wearing closed toed shoes on travel days. Nothing will be worse for your health than dropping a sway bar on your toe. Broken toes are absolutely no fun whatsoever, and make many tasks difficult, as mobility is a must. This isn't limited to the outside of the rig, either. Nothing puts a damper on the day like dropping a dog food can on your foot. So do yourself a favor and wear protection.
Second, when doing your regular inspections, check the rig for wasps and stinging insects. It becomes an absolute joy breaker when the wasps infesting your workamping location decide to build a nest on your hot water tank. Even more so when someone in your party is allergic, and that bug survives a thousand mile journey. No fear, as a diluted peppermint oil spray will help to prevent most infestations, and is a natural solution that's safe for your fur baby.
Finally, pay close attention to the quality of your resources. No advantageous experience is worth having to put up with moldy city water. Not only do the filters not always remove that contagion, but it will ruin your hose faster than your next paycheck hits the bank. If the water gets bad enough to the point where you can't even use it, remember that your house is on wheels. Find something a little better for yourself.
So the next time you Follow your Internal Compass, remember that staying healthy is important, and these tips along with other considerations will help.
