Van living
    #11755359 -

down by the river, or in otherwise friendly and resource rich environments :thumbup:

I came across this website just now and am getting more and more of a kick out of this lifestyle of total freedom.  freedom from worries and responsibility.  some of you might remember my "pimp my van" thread the other day in which i professed my desire to outfit a van as a mobile motel/entertainment palace.  well, this website shall add more fuel to the fire of any van dwelling hopefuls.

http://cheaprvliving.com

so what do you all think?  i know i'd get looked down on by society at large, but that doesn't bother me...and the first thing people get to know about me won't be that i live in a van down by the river.  :lol:

I'd rather live in an RV. :shrug:

i don't think i need a lot of indoor space.  just enough to sit, lay, cook, and hang out watching movies/playing video games.  i need to be able to open double back doors to a nice park or vista and that should be enough.

an RV gets bad gas mileage and might get cracked down on for sleeping in it if not in a pay zone.  a van can hit the road easily and cheaply and can park anywhere.

discreet solar panels are a must.

Well as long as I pimped it up so I could cook and watch movies/video, then I would actually prefer to live in a van. :thumbup:

I would also get satellite internet and TV.


The only thing that sort of sucks is that you couldn't get mail delivered to your van, but that's nothing a P.O. box couldn't fix! :grin:

I'm going to try the van lifestyle in ~2-3 years.

I'm buying my land this year, I don't believe I could drop everything and live the lifestyle without having a plot to return to.

I'm probably going to do that as soon as I buy a van, and pimp it out. :thumbup:

who needs mail anyway?

also, satellite tv and internet is a great idea, but you could probably find free wifi zones in every neighborhood if you went on a walk with your free mobile device.

you live in san fran frugally right?  are you homeless, generally?  i swear, van living can provide all the necessary comforts to live that frugal life but without the homeless feel.  my whole family is on edge...thinking i'm going to go AWOL on a scheme like this :lol: but i won't leave without saying goodbye...

For drugs and shit, dude. :stoned:

I would probably want to stay as far away from society as possible for as long as possible, so I would actually kind of need it.

I don't live in San Fran, but I do live in the San Fran Bay Area; if I did this van thing, I would probably live somewhere in So-Cal for a while because it's warmer down there. :sunny:

You don't have to tell them shit, just take them to a hotel room, preferably one with a hot-tub. :shrug:

I've just read that entire site.

Fuck shitting in a plastic bag and pissing in a bottle :crankey:

I think I'll just go back to my original idea of building a shed out in the middle of nowhere, at least I'll have a compost toilet.

If you are living in an urban area, then you could just go to any random store and take a shit there. If you're living out in the woods or something, then you could just take a shit outside. :shrug:

I work in transport and even then I have a very hard time finding public bathrooms.

I couldn't imagine not having the luxury of a "base" and constantly be on the search for a place to piss/shit.

Say what you want, some of the most gorgeous, best lays I've ever had were dreadheads.

I don't doubt that their facial/body features are gorgeous, it just seems sort of nasty to me for a girl to have dreads. :shrug:
