I've been watching Nomad videos on Youtube and really think living in a Van would be COOL!
Maybe just pack up buy a Van and travel around the US, find some odd jobs or something and watch life from the drivers window.
Absolutely ... the thought of breaking away from Society is really REALLY appealing to me. ... go for it :-)
Been there, done that. Life will never be the same.
Once you have lived on the road, without the binds of those 4 walls.. life changes.
I'll be back on the road within a couple of years.
Ever had crappy neighbors? Not when living mobile you don't.
You have the utmost of freedom.. My days were spent lazing beneath trees reading books on my ereader. I had a couple of solar panels, digital radio, enough power to keep things charged.
I even had an espresso maker.
When I woke up, I could see the bright blue sky and hear the birds. Every second night I dropped into a truck stop and used their showers.
It was absolute freedom. For every downside there seemed to be 10 upsides.
Have a look at carliving dot info, there's a lot of good info on that site.
Everyone I know that has done it ends up gazing out of their windows regularly.. aching to be back on the road.
Wow thanks for the information.
I've never done it but its calling me for sure.
I spent most of my time on highways.. if you hang around suburbia it is a lot harder.
When I went into suburbia I parked in a gaming venue carpark on the other side of the carpark floodlights, anyone looking from the building couldn't see me there :D
I had been questioned by the police once, they just asked me how I was and if everything was ok. Another time I was in landlocked bush in suburbia on a dirt track, the police drove by and waved.
If you keep your wits about you, it can be done safely.
There's something special about waking up under the stars..
You haven't truly lived life until you've considered living in an automobile.
you can get pretty baddass, once you figure out the pee and poo. i did in my truck , awesome cooking… free internet, lots of music . this is the perfect time.
Here have a laugh

My sister and her partner have just set off around Australia towing a caravan after having to leave their longterm rental and I have a friend who's been living in a van for years with her little dog and loves it.
I have dreams of doing it too, but I own too many books I don't want to part with
