Yeah there was a "we" that started to appear about halfway into the post and I began to wonder: if the other half of that "we" is female, could she write a post about how she dealt with menstrual hygiene in a van?

Yup. Butchered. Thanks for Google-foo'ing that business. It is, without a doubt, the best part of that movie. Well... Except the part where Jean-Pierre Sarti's lady friend is crying out his name after the accident. #emotions

Thanks for writing this. I've been living out of my Honda Fit for the last few weeks, waiting for property I bought to close escrow. It's just land so I'll be clearing it myself, sleeping in a tent, etc., with the goal of building a fully functional cabin while paying cash for everything.

I've been fortunate enough to surf in Israel, Costa Rica, Mexico, Hawaii and just about every inch of the West Coast. We're headed to Japan at the end of April, and plan to spend two months surfing and riding motorcycles. While my income isn't exceptional, or even adequate, I've been able to set aside some...…

The idea isn't really to park permanently.

Too many people are scared of stuff. Don't be.

I've lived off a motorcycle for three months. And not a touring bike. I wasn't surfing, but still. It's easy to pare down stuff when you literally cannot carry more stuff.

I think you can do this at any age, although being "young" allows you to not look like a complete ne'er–do–well. And there is a woman living in the van with me.... by choice. No candy required.

My next move is a short Scamp trailer...

Careful... These "if's" can turn into "I's" ;) Would love to catch up with you when I head back south, though.

Unfortunately, I've already taken life too seriously. Been married, had a desk job, overpriced apartment, plenty of debt and more than one car payment. I'll skip that noise for now. Someday, though, I'll "settle down" and reproduce.

I didn't even read the article. I lived for almost a year in a '95 Ford Contour. The tiniest little box you can have. Up yours mister fancy van with all the space.

Anything can be done.
