It depends on a number of factors. For the first four years, or so, I traveled a lot, rarely staying in one place for more than a month at a time, and sometimes less than a week. For the past year, because I'm traveling with a girlfriend who likes more stability, and her cats who hate driving, we've been taking it quite slowly. We've mostly stayed at least a month wherever we stop, and we've been in our current location for about four months.
I work remotely, yes, but always have, even before traveling. Internet has gotten outrageously expensive in recent years, as no one offers unlimited data. I spend about $250 (sometimes as much as $300) a month on Internet (it used to be under $100) from two providers, and still often find myself out of data near the end of the month. So, you should budget for that, unless you want to spend a lot of time in coffee shops and libraries and such. I have friends who travel and spend much less, but they don't work from their RV as much as I do.
It's a pretty flexible lifestyle; one can, and people do, park the whole summer in one location and then move south for winter and spend the whole winter in the desert or southern California, or Mexico. Others travel nearly full-time. It's the benefit of having a fully self-contained home with wheels.
