I hope you don't give up your dream entirely. Could you get a used camper and just go for a few months? If you don't do a little, you may always regret it. I was going to say that you eventually will need a place to live when your husband/you are too old to drive, so look for someone to keep your stash for you. Maybe you could rent an extra room cheap, knowing that you would never be living there.
Anyhoo, you should try it. It doesn't have to be permanent.
