Meet the Nomad Behind the Guide

Hey there — I’m Marshall Shartzer III, a filmmaker turned full-time nomad and blogger at MellowNomadic.com.

I travel part-time in my converted Dodge Grand Caravan and spend most winters living on the road — soaking up the sunsets, learning through experience, and sharing what works (and what doesn’t).

I created this Starter Kit because I know how tough it can be to choose the right rig or figure out where to start. These info sheets are packed with the exact advice I wish I had when I first hit the road.

I hope they help you feel confident, prepared, and inspired to begin your own adventure.
