A Hands-On Dry Camping Experience for New Nomads

Embarking on a nomadic lifestyle can be both exciting and overwhelming. If you’re new to dry camping (boondocking) and want to gain essential skills while building confidence in your ability to thrive on the road, Homes on Wheels Alliance (HOWA) invites you to join our Nomad Boondocking Skill Camp—a hands-on, immersive training program designed specifically for new nomads.
Over the course of two weeks, participants will receive practical training, mentorship, and essential safety resources while living in a supportive community of like-minded individuals. The program is tailored for those with limited financial resources who are committed to learning, adaptability, and community service.
The intent of this program is to teach you how to not only survive but thrive on the road.
