The story is great, but the comments....many of those folks just don't seem to get it. They presume that people live on the road fulltime and workamp because they're poor and can't afford to live anywhere else or find a "real" job. Like, oh these poor people in this awful country who have to be *gasp* migrant workers. Several actually said "forced into" this lifestyle.
It's amazing to me how many people are so wrapped around themselves that they can't conceive of anyone wanting something different. It doesn't occur to them that someone would actually *want* to be transient and do odd jobs to make a little scratch.
