One nice thing about traveling is 99% of the people you meet are friendly and helpful. Almost without fail when the Kadizzilites pull into a new area and set camp we soon meet some nice people and fellow travelers. The majority of people living a mobile life are retired and their goal is to enjoy life. If anyone appears to be having a problem soon they are surrounded by people with lots of advice, tools, and willingness to help.
If you want information, there is just about always someone who knows the area and will give you some good tips about how to get there and where to stay. One nice thing that happens once in a while is people break out instruments and have an informal musical get together.
In no time a lot of these people become good friends and you may end up going down the road with them. We have often invited people to visit us in North Dakota, and a couple have taken us up on in. Last fall we visited some people we met last year at their bed and breakfast in Canada.
A special group of people we meet are those from other countries exploring our country. It is fun to find out what their impression of the United States is. Often it is eye opening. A couple days ago we me a guy from Sweden. He loved our public lands. Most Europeans are amazed how in the United States there are millions of acres where anyone can just park and camp for free. Traveling is always educational and meeting people is one of the best ways to educate yourself
