Anyone else buy a one way ticket into van life?
I chose this life, but it was financially driven and I knew there would be no turning back. I’m glad I did it sooner rather than later, before I was completely broke because it allowed me to spend some money preparing my space and left me a bit of a nest egg for emergencies. But not enough to be able to rent an apartment again. It’s been 4 years now in my minivan and I don’t regret my choice, but I sometimes dream of being housed again. Having a real bathroom and kitchen and not having to always figure out where to go. My dream situation would be to have a home base and be able to venture out in the van whenever I wanted to, the best of both worlds. I’m old and tired and don’t have much earning potential. Been waiting and waiting on disability, but will also be eligible for retirement in a couple of years if that doesn’t work out. Either way, it won’t be much, so guess it’s van life for the foreseeable future. Still grateful for what I have. Thanks for coming to my TED talk.
