Hey Y'all!
I got one question, from twitter:
"How excited are you to start traveling?"
Extremely ready, however I was glad to still be in the house during the most recent cold snap (and snow)!
Since there was only one question I decided to answer these:
https://www.wayfaringkiwi.com/10-common-questions-i-get-asked-about-living-in-my-van/
- What made you decide to live in a van? I've shared about it before on the blog, so long story short- We've always wanted to travel, after much research this seemed like the perfect option.
- How long are you going to be living in your van for? 2-4yrs is the plan.
- Where do you pee? In the bathroom, lol. Public bathrooms, campgrounds, and when needed we have a portable toilet.
- Don’t you get lonely living in a van by yourself? We have each other, and neither of us are big people person(s).
- How much money are you saving by living in your van? Unknown, some of what was our monthly expenses will transfer over, instead of a house payment we'll have fuel, instead of electric bill we'll have the occasional campground, instead of internet we'll have maintenance, we'll still have phones, insurance, food, etc. We'll know more as we get out there, we do have a rough estimate budget and that's significantly less, but we're paying off everything when the house sale is finalized.
- How do you cook your meals? We have a 17in Blackstone for most all our needs, and a single burner bottle top propane stove for anything else.
- Where do you park your van? Here, there, anywhere. We've stealth camped, campground camped, public lands, and family mooch-docked.
- Don’t you get scared living in a van by yourself? We're a couple, so not alone. I find I'm more scared in heavily populated places that we'll get "the knock"... other than that, nope. We're pretty aware of our surroundings, and have cameras.
- Where do you shower? We plan to get a portable, so far we always stay places with a shower (or skip a day or 2). We also plan to utilize Planet Fitness.
- What’s the worst thing about living in a van? It feels really small on crap weather days, and we can kind of get in each others way a bit. A trade off we're perfectly okay with.
Do you have any questions for me? They can be about anything- not just van life. Share them in the comments below!
Have a great day,
Craftin' Wife
