Understandable. This lifestyle isn't for everyone. But it's absolutely criminal how extortionate the housing industry is, vs how low jobs pay. I don't know every detail of your situation, and you're under no obligation to explain it here because certainly it must be overwhelming for you right now, and I'm sending you powerful positive energy and boy do I sure know that when we go through hellfire, if we survive it, we come out stronger like refiner's fire making metal harder.

I just want to comment on regular showers: 24-hour gym membership! I'm a massage therapist and oh yeah I need to be clean 24/7 too✨😄 And we have showers at my place of employment too but I feel weird showering there so I've only done it once or twice. And yeah I confess I am doing this lifestyle in a tall comfy van. Would be less comfortable in an actual little car. 🙏🏼

But my paychecks are all for me, no way I could have saved up all this money if I had to pay landlords every month.

I am so in love with this freedom lifestyle.

Yes it's illegal to sleep in a vehicle where I am too, but there are so many homeless people around here, law enforcement focuses on the ones actually sleeping outside on the sidewalks & beaches & in tents. Law enforcement does not bother us in vehicles at all unless belligerent, making messes, or staying parked in one place for too long. I've never had a problem.

Anyway I know you have no desire to live in a vehicle, most people would consider it a hardship, so pardon my tangent but this topic excites me 🤭

Ideally I would have a house AND this van but as most of us know we can't always have everything we want, which probably the slight discomfort I always feel is a reason I thought of this post topic.
