Canlife Correspondence: Back Issues of Our Almost Monthly Newsletter

By -

Welcome to Canlife Correspondence!

What is "canlife" exactly?  Well, if you've heard of the ever-growing trend called #vanlife, it's like that but living in and working from a "canned ham" style vintage travel trailer.  In 2022, we started Canlife Correspondence, our Almost Monthly Newsletter, as a way to share both written and visual travel stories, upcoming seminars, full-time RV living tips, stunning images from the places we've been, gear we've tested and reviewed, deals and discounts on our favorite RV and camping gear, good news about the environment, our favorite camp recipes, and more.  Let us know if there is something you'd like to learn about, and we'll do our best to accommodate!

If you've missed some issues along the way, or are just now subscribing...check out our back issues. Subscribe here (always free!) and please share with some friends who might be interested.  

Note:  If you want more regular doses of inspiration and commentary about our daily travels, we are also on Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube.  And, of course, we regularly add RV and camping related resources and content to our website at Freedom in a Can.

The Ultimate DIY Guide to Off-Grid Solar

By -

Just the other day, we searched on YouTube for “DIY solar.”  Not surprisingly, hundreds, if not thousands, of results filled the screen, scroll after scroll after scroll – it never stopped.  There is literally a ton of information out there, almost too much, but there isn’t exactly a comprehensive one-stop guide where everything can be easily found now  and referenced again, later.  Maybe you really like the way one woman put panels on the roof of her van.  Maybe she explained things in a way that totally made sense to you; but she didn’t make any other videos on the charge controller, battery, or inverter.  You find yourself overwhelmed, discouraged and frustrated, so it's easy to give up.  We realize how hard it can be to find quality information that is presented in an easy-to-follow and digestible manner for the solar curious. We wrote this blog to specifically help you sail through the sea of information out there.  We’ve been living mobile w...

Small RV Kitchen Tips, Hacks, & Techniques: From Refrigeration to Clean Up!

“What do you eat?  I mean, you can’t possibly have many pots and pans and utensils in there….or store much food.”  If we only had a nickel for every time we’ve heard this question over the past 12 years, we could have bought enough groceries for a month. “You’d be surprised,” we always respond.  It doesn’t matter how big your kitchen is, it’s the size of your imagination that really matters!  All anyone really needs to cook is a heat source, a pot, and a spoon.  We are two foodies on the move and we have whittled our kitchen essentials down to what we need to make incredible meals, all with just a two burner stove or a campfire, a 12V fridge, and a few cooking essentials -- including just one small electric kitchen appliance.  Can you guess what it might be?  In our tiny space , there are some small and simple things that have made our life just a bit easier while living and cooking on the road. Our trick?  Everything we have has to either be use...

11 Years of Road Life with Solar!

By -

Last month, we celebrated 11 years of living and working from the road, our "Nomadiversary” if you will, with our tiny canned-ham style camper that we lovingly refer to as “Hamlet.”   We've had the great fortune to travel all over the North American continent – all 50 US states and 10 Canadian provinces – and have taken Hamlet to all 51 of the US national parks you can drive to, as well as 14 Parks Canada national parks.  And, we have plans to go to Baja this winter! Being early adopters of the solar powered road life, we now have over a decade of experience living, working, and traveling off-grid, as well as teaching others how to make the most of what solar power can do!  In addition to this blog, we share our adventures and seminars through our website , monthly newsletter , and social media handle “ Freedom in a Can .”   The Renogy solar team recently asked us some burning questions about our journey, so we thought we'd share our answers with you too...
