We’ve lived in a house, then an RV, then a sailboat, and now… a plane!
Don’t get me wrong, these past years of living on a sailboat and RV have been amazing, but we’re ready for another change – it’s time for a plane!
It may sound crazy to change our minds so quickly, but part of being a blogger is that I can live and work from wherever I want. As long as I have my laptop, an internet connection, and can bring my dogs, I’m good. I can see the world from anywhere, and I’m ready to do it from a plane!
Plus, you just never know what’s going to happen in life. If you want to make a change, stop waiting around and just go for it!
You’re probably wondering how this all came about, so let me tell you what happened. When we sold our last RV, we were talking to the person who was going to deliver our RV to the next person – and he asked us what was next. He said that he knows a lot of RVers who go from RVing to living full-time on a plane. They just park their plane in a hangar when they aren’t flying. It’s pretty much like docking a boat in a marina or parking an RV in a RV lot.
We thought this was so interesting, but we honestly didn’t believe it at first.
Then, we met a few more people who told us similar stories and started getting more excited about the possibility. We met a really nice couple at the marina in St. Pete who actually lived on a plane before moving onto a sailboat. Since we’ve been in the Bahamas, we have met even more people who are living on planes.
Living on a plane has been running through our minds for a few months now and we’ve decided to go for it!
So, our sailboat Paradise is currently for sale, and we’re looking for our next home.
We’re not quite sure what kind of plane we will be buying, but it needs to be big enough to fit us and our dogs, and it would also be nice if it had enough room for when our family comes to visit. If you have any tips or advice on what kind of plane we should buy, let me know in the comments.
If you’re thinking this sounds crazy, here are the reasons for why we want to live on an airplane:
- It would be fun.
- We could travel even faster by plane than by boat or RV. This means we can visit even more places!
- We’ve traveled by land and sea, now it’s time to be in the air. It’s the logical next step!
- We learned how to sail a boat, and I’m sure it’s just as easy to learn how to fly a plane.
Just kidding.
Happy April Fools’ Day!
I’m completely kidding. We have no plans of moving onto an airplane. I wouldn’t even know the first step! And honestly, a boat is so much work that I cannot even fathom how much work it would take to live on an airplane full-time.
It does sound interesting, though!

Hilarious! I’m so glad I read to the end. How many people do you think read the beginning or the email teaser and think you are going to do this for real?
I think about 50%!
Yeah, you got me!!!
haha!
You got me!!! I was going to Google “Living on an airplane”
hahaha!
Completely fell for it. Good one!!
Thanks!
OMG you got me. I was formulating my comment and was going to say this was very bizarre and I didn’t understand how it would work or even be remotely enjoyable…. LOL.
hahahahaha I am actually LOLing
FOOLED! Of course it’s not even April Fools day here in New Zealand any more so I didn’t even think of it and couldn’t BELIEVE what I was reading.
Good prank, Michelle. Glad to hear that you are staying on your boat.
hahaha thanks!
Especially as I live in New Zealand where it’s now April 2, I was totally taken in by this and have to say you’d lost me there, like I was thinking about all the logistical issues and how you wouldn’t be able to stay in the hangar and so would need motes etc….. funny!
Motels not motes!
hahaha!
You got me! I totally fell for it. I live in an RV on the east coast part of the month and a boat the other part of the month in San Francisco, and I’m on an airplane about 200 hours a month on top of that so I feel like I live on an airplane too.
I was thinking we have so much in common. We could be real life friends. 😂 Glad to hear you’re not getting rid of the boat. The boat is my favorite but I need my RV time and love to fly… Who knows, maybe one day you will have a little airplane too.
haha thanks!
Best April Fools joke ever! I was totally fooled….
🙂 thanks!
You got me! I was fooled by this… I believed it. I was like, Michelle can do this kind of stuff. So cool! April fool was the last thing on my mind.
hahaha!
Hilarious! I saw this show once about weird homes, and this guy actually did live on a plane! But it didn’t fly anymore–he parked it in a forest!
Yep, people do it!
Lol, before I got to ur April fool stmt, I was thinking these people are full of it! Lol. Then I read April fool! Good one!
🙂
hahah I knew it was an April Fool’s joke. I remember you did one last year or the year before about being done/hate RV life and then it turned out to be a joke (at least at that moment it was a joke) lol
hahaha!
I really got fooled by this. Amazing April fool stunt. 🙂
🙂
Omg I fell for it! Because YESTERDAY was April Fools in New Zealand 😂
hahaha!
