Lily is awesome. She's not just surviving, she's living. I admire her. She's a brave 22 year old that wasn't afraid to take a chance. She did something a lot of people only talk about and she made it work. Smart, brave, and beautiful. I wish her the best. Thanks for the video.

Isn't that wonderful! I remember so well how much I struggled just to pay rent when I lived in a big expensive city - it caused so much stress and heartache throughout my younger years... but seeing these kids today who seek out alternatives to maintain their sovereignty is such an inspiration. I mean, really, who needs all that damn space?! Especially when you're just throwing away good money, money that you worked so hard for but then have to just toss it away, never having anything to show for it. No, these kids are great and they're paving the way for everyone's freedom. And, is it really that much of a sacrifice? Nope... it's the opposite... a gift... direct access to nature, simplicity and freedom! Love this!!!

goodwin1996 I hear you Goodwin. I recently bought an old - REALLY old RV that my parents have owned since 1982. They remodeled it 15 years ago and it's still in really good shape so I'm moving into it for the summer to see how it goes. People that live in campers and tiny houses LOVE living small and simply and closer to nature. So, why not, right? You can save so much money going that route... plus, it'll be yours. And nobody can take it away from you! Sometimes you can get great deals on craigslist. So, best of luck to you... I hope you find what you need.

I'm 70 and travelled for 7 years in a campervan it is the most amazing life. I had a 65 watt solar panel on the roof with 150amp deep cyle battery. I ran my refridgerator, TV for two hours a night in winter, a radio, computer, fan and phone charger and never ever ran out of power. At first I had a camp toilet but that is a nightware to clean out every week. Then I got a bag toilet they are the best. You put a bag in the toilet and throw away each day into a garbage bin. Don't be shocked women put soiled nappies in bins all the time and some don't tie them into a plastic bio degradable bag. I sat my solar shower on the dash board and either took it into a shower cubicle at the beach or into my tent shower room for my daily showers. I do not like to have gas inside my van. no matter how careful you are in my travels most fires and exposions are from gas. I have seen hundred of gas fires and fires from candles. In Australia there are free campsite along all highways.

To be trapped in a money system that profits only the already wealthy. Mostly. Banks love to have us enslaved to them. And in many towns it's illegal to live in a tiny house under a certain amount of square feet because then they cannot demand property taxes. In many places you cannot have a composting toilet they require you to have a flushing toilet so you need to be hooked on the town water and waste system. So many rules to take away people's freedom.

As someone who has lived in studios for years now, I can tell you that not even a few months into living in studios, i wished to have another room to be in. Advertising gigantic mansions where you could lodge fifty people as a lifetime objective is definitely a sign of material excess which serve absolutely no purpose, but while I enjoy watching those tiny house videos, I've had enough experience in small living to tell you it's not something I'd ever wish for long term. Human beings can't just be cooped up in a single room which contains everything all the time, it weighs on you in the end. The minimum should always be to have at least two rooms, I would recommend a living area and then a sleeping area with rooms that have decent proportions not to feel like the space is bearing down on you and trigger that feeling of claustrophobia. Having to pay mortgage for 30 years is certainly insane, however, and I think people should be able to afford homes that suit their needs, no matter the size.

I take my hat off to her for making the very best of the situation however the fact she is living there and some other person down the road will have more space and money than they could ever use tells me something about our system is not working.

In New Zealand rent is paid weekly, not monthly, so that would be 800 per month - and that's actually very cheap rent in Auckland too. The average small 1 bedroom apartment in Auckland city is 350 per week, which means that on average, Aucklanders spend around 50% of their salary on rent.

This young woman speaks amazingly well. It is interesting contrasting how a typical 22 year old American would speak -- , it is simply night and day. Clearly they are doing something right with education down in New Zealand.

+OusaKhun At least 3 people and a police officer have died on my street since 2009, I fully disagree with you about this one, there are always homeless people breaking into peoples homes and living there while they are away for extended periods of time. I bought 6 acres of land in a forest and I only have an occasional deer to worry about.

Well spoken, creative, very pretty, smart, independent thinker and a happy disposition. I'm sure she shall do well in life and will attract a equally nice young professional such as a doctor or a pilot that will provide her a beautiful home which she deserves. I also believe she will always hold dear to heart that little van in an Auckland city garden. I wish her well.
@Squid8Vids8 жыл бұрын
I think she with be able to provide nicely for herself. A bit of an outdated opinion about women and couples. She is taking time to figure out what is important to her and not getting pressured into a living or working situation that might not work at the moment. Many people have had to take a less than ideal job to just cover rent and expenses. This camper may not be optimal but it works for her at the moment. As for the facilities, showering and toilet use in the main house is available which is all some of us need. I have known many others (myself included) who have had a similar situation, vans, yurts, partially converted garages that provide the basic shelter and use the main house for the plumbing. There seems to be rather widespread thinking that when one doesn't have a shower or flush toilet, that the person is unclean or uncivilized. Cities need to explore, be open to, approve or mandate alternatives to the water flush toilet as well as grey water usage to conserve resources.

I LOVE it! She is very creative, artistic and has great decorative talent! This is definitely one of my favorites because of the simplicity of the pop up style caravan and what she was able to do with it and with style! I took this as a huge inspiration and went out and bought myself a 400 dollar pop-up and am now in the process of securing it (fixing a few things and finding new cabinets, etc) picking things up for it here and there in a decorative sense, getting it properly "hooked up" with water, propane, fridge, toilet/shower box (some models come with it), mine will be more DIY with compost toilet though, solar panels, generator/converter, water catchment, mini split, etc. A little at a time of course, it won't be done over night and I know this but now I know that it it WILL be done! :) I absolutely love what she did with hers and am hoping to do similar to mine. Thank you SO very much for all the inspiration your show has giving me and so many others, thank you for sharing these master pieces with us and thank you to all of the tiny house builders out there for not being afraid to "step outside of the box!" You are all truly beautiful souls. I'm going to name mine "Tardis" because she is definitely bigger on the inside!

It's refreshing to see a free thinker who has awakened and is living in the solution; learning to minimize the effects of economic slavery . who cares what the other sheep say or think ? There is no greater prison than that which is built from fear of what other people think.. I've been living in my RV exploring Australia for almost four years now and I'm fully self contained, very comfortable with all the mod cons. I only have one regret, which is that I didn't live free in my RV sooner...
