I don’t have any experience in this stuff myself but I wanted to share the video.

Home is close all the time. Living costs could be far smaller. If you like traveling, this seems like an epic answer for that.

Gotta probably work harder for filling basic needs. It’s different to maintain a house and a car. If you get sick, this lifestyle could be more difficult. Winters are cold in some places.

    That was an interesting video.I have known people who lived in vans, and the only ones that lasted long term are those that had a good support system. Some had friends/family where they could park up for a while now and then. All that lasted several years, tend to meet up with other van living friends and exchange good places to park and to avoid. And one thing they all had in common is that they were really tidy and organized.

      Going in stealth seems to be a big thing for people living in vans and you don’t get that much space, so I can see how being organized is a big deal.
