Really people? Who disliked this video? I love Summer's philosophy of life. She has a vision and she is trying to fulfill it on her own terms. We need more teachers like here who enjoy teaching because the students will enjoy learning. I hope she gets to live her dream and I truly like this video especially because of the little illustrations and her desire to try and build this herself which will give her much satisfaction. Good luck Summer, hope to see the finished product.

Very touching documentary! Unlike many videos here on KZbin about tiny houses or van conversion it´s more about the person, less about the van. We need more people who are willing to face obstacles to live a (somehow) simplier life, at least a life that needs less resources from our planet. Having more and more people on Earth creates the need for different concepts not to completly distroy our enviroment. Living in smaller spaces and owning less stuff is one way to do that. We wish Summer Winston all the best, now and in the future! :-)
