Summary

This week on the RV Podcast we talk about the so-called "Nature Pill," explaining how even 20 minutes if time surrounded by nature can measurably reduce stress and bring about better health. Plus there's a lot coming up in this episode… We talk with the organizer of the big Quartzsite RV show in January and learn why every RVer needs to make at least one trip to Quartzsite, the desert mecca that draws thousands upon thousands of RVers each winter. If you are a solo traveler who wants to visit the area but is concerned about being alone, we’ll hear from a woman who runs a popular group for solo RVers who is inviting solo travelers to camp together in Quartzsite. Plus, the RV news this week, tips, travel ideas, and your RV Lifestyle questions…all coming up on Episode 468 of the RV Podcast.
