Going to Florida!

I'd like to go down south because my bus is not ready for winter yet, there is way too much to do by myself that I can't do yet, also money etc. Is there anyone in Florida who has land I could stay at? I'd be staying from november-march and working if I can, I'm working up north ATM and getting prepared for the journey and it's a bit scary...the bus has never gone long distance before and anything could happen. Let me know please!

Research "Workamping"...
It might fit your bill.

If I wasn't tied down to current job, I'd be all over it!

Engine: gasser probably
no land yet..
I've thought about buying rural land for play ground/ projects but not there yet in my life, maybe in the future.
I would love to let people stay in exchange of labor.

Anyhow, I just thought I would share my ideas since it would had been something we could had worked out if I was at that point in my life.
Hope you find something and dont forget your flipflops.

If I had land of my own, I'd say come help me build my bus and I'd help you with yours. I'm just not there yet, unfortunately.
But hit me up if/when you get here, I'd love to meet up with you.

Yea it would be cool to fix up each other's busses, I can probably lay the floor by myself, but raising the roof? No clue. I just know I want it, cause the windows suck so bad and the temperature is very easy to flux in here. It literally wakes me up in the morning because I feel the temp spike. It's crazy!
