#This millennial ditched her NYC lease to work from R.V. around the country

Brett Weinberger, 24, high-tailed it out of her small East Village apartment for which she was paying $1,065 in rent during the pandemic. But unlike many of her peers, who swiftly moved home with their parents, Weinberger decided to invest in a 26-by-8-foot mobile home, where she’ll live and work for the foreseeable future.

“I lived in a room with one window that looked onto a brick wall — it wasn’t going to be a conducive working environment,” Weinberger, a procurement manager for a food startup, told The Post.

She had previously made the most of her one-year lease in the heart of downtown by catching burlesque and Broadway shows and never eating at the same restaurant twice.

But when COVID-19 forced her to take cover indoors, Weinberger, who’s visited 27 countries and said “traveling is a huge component of my life,” experienced cabin fever.

“No one moves to New York to sit in their apartment,” said Weinberger.

Inspired by the Netflix show “Tiny House Nation,” she began seeking out alternate modes of living and started perusing sites like RVShare and RVTrader for a trailer.

The Pittsburgh native scored her 2020 Jayco Redhawk 24B, which sleeps six, for $70,000 at a dealership in Ohio in early August. “I’m very budget-conscious,” said Weinberger, who made a $10,000 down payment on the R.V. and took out a loan co-signed by her mother. At $530, her new monthly loan payments are roughly half of what she paid in rent, though she also has to consider additional expenses such as gas and insurance.

She plans on starting her travels in October — her first stop is Kentucky, and she has her eyes set on Tennessee, North Carolina, the Great Smoky Mountains and Glacier National Park in Montana. But she’s letting mother nature guide her.

“Generally I’m planning on following the weather,” she said. “Winter is not happening for me this year.”

After breaking off her lease, the adventurer purged her closet — “I donated four garbage bags of clothes,” she said — and got to work readying her mobile home and office.

She stocked up on child-proof locks for drawers so items don’t go flying while she drives, an InstantPot for cooking on the fly, leveling blocks to make sure the vehicle is parked flat, hoses and tubes for water hookups and mace to deter any unwanted intruders while traveling solo.

“As long as I have reliable Internet, I’m good to go,” said Weinberger, who upgraded to an unlimited data plan and bought a few signal boosters to guarantee service in the campsites and national parks where she plans on parking.

An inaugural trip to Shenandoah National Park in September that Weinberger took with her boyfriend proved that a few more kinks need to be worked out.

“A park ranger had made us move spots about four times,” said Weinberger, who’s still learning to navigate things like rationing her water tank and optimizing her generator.

“It was my first voyage,” copped the R.V. owner. “Before this, I’d never driven anything larger than my mom’s minivan.”
