With the coronavirus I think it best to try full timing in what I have just to see if I can make it under these circumstances. Last year I traveled for about a month in my Kia but I had a makeshift sleeping arrangement that wasn’t all that bad. I too had a great time seeing different things. I agree no one thinks anyone is sleeping in a Kia. I didn’t get any knocks.

Thank you for sharing this! I found it to be very encouraging. I am 64 and recently just realized I did not want to go one more day at the job I was working at. I was trying to make it to retirement, which would have been in Sept 2021, but hated my life and the mundane existence I was living. I had purchased a 5th wheel about a couple years ago, and sold my house, and parked the 5th wheel on my daughter's property in Ramona, CA. But eventually she convinced me to sell it and just live inside. I wish I would have kept it, but still enjoy living out in the country with my daughter, her husband and my grandson, and my three English Bulldogs. I watch alot of videos on van conversion and RVs and constantly think of doing something like this, but was a little afraid of being out there on my own. I also am an artist and hoping to start to do this, as it is something I truly enjoy and feel I have somewhat of a talent for it. The problem is that I have so much art equipment that I even found it hard to keep in the 5th wheel. My current room at my daughter's home is filled with art supplies. Not sure how to downsize this. Thank you for your videos. They are inspiring.

I love this channel, and feel that Bob has helped a lot of people in a great number of ways; whether it be in their quest for freedom, or in dealing with hard times. I myself have wanted to hit the open road for a number of years now, but various obligations and circumstances have prevented me from doing so, and I say that without regret. With that being the case, I really appreciate the opportunity to share in these adventures vicariously. Still, I cannot wrap my head around the entire concept of actually living full time in something as small as a car. I know, "Different strokes for different folks" and sometimes you simply have to make do with what you can afford, but I can't imagine actually *aspiring* to that degree of minimalism. When I see something like this, I ask myself, what's next ... How To Live In A 55 Gallon Drum? But then I realize that these travelers are a lot tougher than I could ever hope to be, and that what confuses *me* might possibly inspire others. So I take my hat off to them, and wish them well.

So glad she shared! I just moved from a house into a new van I bought and took waaayyy too much stuff. I just want to torch it! I’m hunkering down till the threat of this virus has passed.

razor3003 I got a 2019 Ford Transit High Top 😁 with an outrageous monthly payment which I quickly justified because I would be living in it. Thanks for asking 😊

@@alifeofdiversions3174 thanks, I can imagine. I've been looking at those too but like my pappy used to say, "that price is a little salty". Super nice vans though & totally worth it! I'll look for your youtube video:)

Zippered pillow cases can be so helpful because they can serve as storage for clothing or blankets, but can also be used as pillows :) What I like to do is put my things in a waterproof zippered pillow protector and then place that inside of the other zippered cloth pillow protector, that way my clothes or items inside remain clean and I only have the wash the outside cloth pillow cover :)

I’m very envious of people in her situation and lifestyle. I hope I will be in the position to do this someday. Safe travels.
