DAMN YOU FINEEEEE... what's your number? (I bet you aint get that question)
Come to New York you can live here gorgeous ,rent free.
How do you use the bathroom
Why do you live in a car? ( question )
Do you like to live in your car . And way do you live in a car
You can tell shes a beautiful soul
❤️
That was my first thought of her.
Kenrick Jobe yes ......... yes you can
She seems to be a very peacefully happy woman. Yeaa!
Kenrick Jobe For sure
Me when I’m leaving on a 20 minute trip across town.
Me too 😂 "just in case" lmao
Mood
meeeee but when we go to the lake
Hahaha you're so funny
Lol
If enough people live in their vehicles I am sure that the government will come up with a way to tax it.
Ofc they will
They already do, it is called registration, insurance and a home address.
Lmao
I know I which all these people would keep it to themselves a little. Geesh. But they are generating an income by youtubing it.
Thanks, actually laughed
One time I was in a really toxic point in my life where I thought of escaping and just living in a car 🚗 . I love watching videos of vanlife and such like these. I hope you’re doing well and are happy!
Be mindful of your battery charge.
My first few weeks were tough.
I hope you are not alone.
Be safe.
Peace and paradise
In my region there's a national park, I've been living in my car in that spot for a year and I work in a pub nearby the park. It's the best decision I've made because no one is near you, all you hear is cow's and sheep, beautiful to wake up to.
I have wanted to do this my whole life, or something like that. I wanted to be a park ranger who lived in a tent or car, just at peace with my minimalist self. This is something I'm pursuing before I die, hopefully...
How you got wifi
i read that as public park and was so confused as to why there were cows and sheep in it.
100 subs to stop squeaky kids ☠️
100 subs to stop squeaky kids there’s something called data :).
I’ve decided to live out of my car. I’m tired of rent and tired of roommates! I can’t believe how much I’ll be saving living in my car. I love it! Having an SUV or Crossover seriously helps lol it’s the whole reason I bought my car! In case I fell on hard times, I could just pack up my essentials and be a free bird. I even have a gym memberships with 24hr access so I can shower anytime I need to for work! Got a P.O. Box for my mail, and bought a specialized air mattress for my car 🥰 I honestly can’t wait until I move out to start my adventures!
i got here by watching a girl and her snake alfredo
edit ~ oof guys thanks for all the likes. this is actually the most ive gotten!
cheeto me too😂😂😂
Me too🤣🤣

Now I have a reason not to care if my parents kick me out😭
Cassi XO knowing myself ima still bawl if get kicked out😭
tam I'm so close to getting kicked out I bought a 1987 bronco that has very limited space, going to be doing some dwelling in that soon
Cassi XO 😭💀
I don't cuz I don't have a car
PinkDogs1824 dont be rude slim jim
I'm not mad at you. My daughter and I were just saying, we should sale our house, buy/rent a van or RV and travel from East Coast to West Coast,then Canada for the next few years. Leave materialism and world possessions; spread our wings and see the world.
Angb Rwill Can I go???
Shamona Wilson lmao same
Angb Rwill sounds so beautiful i wanna do that one day
Angb Rwill yeah I'm trying to roll with you two but I have to be back by Friday I'm bout to watch infinity war with my niggas then finish god of war
2oonami lmbo! I CAN'T with you! But seriously, I can be a nurse anywhere. I'm saving now to get my rig and set out for February/March 2019. I just wanna travel and meet people from all over the USA and beyond, but also learn some things in the process. Kudos to this young blood for being such a fearless go getter.
There are more people Living in Vehicles than most people realize. There's pros & cons to everything, you can stay in residential dwellings and barely make ends meet or live on the road and use the extra $ to do what you couldn't before. I find vehicle living works better for me and I enjoy life more.😊
Light House I'm 26 im about to start living in my Chevy hhr because rent here in Los Angeles is to expensive, any recommendations of what I should pack? I still live at my parents now but I feel its time for this bird to fly.
@@starlightandeverythingnice1650 hi Highlighted, it all depends upon your job and lifestyle. I would just bring a few clothes the shoes you know you going to wear those cleaning body wipes. A sleeping bag it gets cold at night, a small trash can and 4 gallon plastic bags, some hygienic supplies, air freshener a thermal cup that keeps your drinks cold or hot a gym bag when you go to the gym to shower, window shades you can get them at Target in the baby section or any car place. Straps 2 hold your belongings in place. A thermal Food Bag eating utensils and supplies Maybe a hot plate. clear plastic containers to keep clothes organized. Then any Electronics such as your laptop or phone and accessories that you may need plus some solar panels to charge them. And I personally would keep a Bible on hand, it is your best protection. I'm new to this too I only been in my car for maybe three weeks. But this has helped me.
And more traveling
FR. All you need is a job to sustain your cashflow. You're solid.
Yooo keep it on the low before the government come for ya asses
Things I've noticed:
1 Nice Scarf
2 I love red
3 Roling clothes saves a lot of space
4 Thats a lot of tupperware
5 Wey wipes are hikers best friend
6 A beautyfull woman doesn't need a lot of make-up
Keep it up!!
this is classier than I expected, im actually jealous
DarkRuins Same lol I know what I'm doing with my S.U.V now
I love it
Huuu same i want her car
DarkRuins - you’re jealous?? You must live in a tent or sleep on the street - lol
Madam Butterfly. 😂
I really like the way you did things to make a very nice home to live. I am currently working on my SUV, so I can have a place to live. This way when shtf, I can have a place to call home.may God always bless you and protect you on your safe journey
That was a really nice comment lance. And I too am converting my SUV into my studio apartment I love it more everyday.
Lance Norton God be with you
Lance Norton I read your acronym without any hesitation! 😂😂The world is changing...😍😎

Finally someone who isn’t rich or a trust fund baby
i saved 60k living in my suv for 5 years
@@dasdimatichaani8309 thats amazing!
I like rich.....
@@dasdimatichaani8309 Then what did you do with it? I would not blame you to splurge after that, but if you were already that smart to save that much, I am sure you will never splurge on yourself and just continue being smart and living smart.
Keep it up.

Lanny Ogarro She could go to the park and barbecue as well
Would love to know if you have any fears about sleeping/parking over night! Love this, so happy you shared :)
thank you mama
I can’t wait to see more vids on your adventures💜 I would love to see your daily work day events & your day off daily events. Are you a traveling car dweller? Love the shaved head. I’m a fellow head shaved, at first because of Illness & now by choice even with the illness present. It’s a freeing feeling💜
Janell Kristina this was my thought
Be safe girl friend. Happy trails.
Janell Kristina can you activate the car alarm at night for safety, I wonder?
Was a temporary car dweller. CHEVY :) Sonic for a few months when I moved to a different state after divorce. The freedom and peace was awesome. The rare rain was awesome. Slept like a baby. Slept in my job's (USPS) parking lot until I saved up for an apartment so it was easy breezy. I hope to van/RV dwell in the future. Thank you for sharing your experiences!
Kamar Brando Your story makes sense as to why you did what you had to do. This is my first time seeing this, maybe she got divorced also. Otherwise, I don't get this at all. It's not safe. But, I had a friend going through a divorce and I offered her a room. She was too proud and slept in her car, even in her storage unit at one point but was lying to me about it. She showered at the gym she told me. Her car/house was in an accident so she rented a truck and slept in that. See these circumstances are by force. Why would someone choose to do this? That's why I'm subbing to this channel to see her story. She's an extrovert. I wish her success.
SABOORSDEVOTION - there’s nothing liberating living in a car, especially with babies - what a stupid remark! Some have no choice, but to do it if you have other options?? That’s just crazy
Idk why but it feels like a tradition to watch this once a year😂
I love that you have your own Tupperware for leftovers and your bamboo silverware. Stay safe and healthy!!
*well i guess i wont be getting my apartment this year im finna park my car behind my parents house and sleep in that bih😂😂💀*
lmaooooo, girl do it.
Autocorrect?
hennessy _banks Lmfaooo
hennessy _banks I see you on hella videos
hennessy _banks your comment makes me lose brain cells
Nice!! I like the idea to cover the Windows. I want to travel, can't afford hotel, so I can stay at State parks and sleep in car. I'll scroll down to see if anyone asked why you decided to do this.
Christine Duval I support you, I'm 18 and I'm about to do this around the whole country
Christine Duval I did the same thing for a year but with a VW camper van; 44 States and a little bit of Canada. Was an amazing experince! One thing I did a bit of, depending on where I ended up was to go to a hotel/motel and explain to the staff that I'm traveling alone, can't afford a room so am sleeping in my van and ask if so could stay in their parking lot just for the night. Some asked for ID but I was never turned away. Saved a lot of money and felt a little safer than just sleeping anywhere.
Laura S. Lucky wow, it's set I'm going to do this did your car ever give you any problems?
LivTheGreatTV Just the alternator and two flat tires. Before I left I had a mechanic friend go through it bumper to bumper and do some work on it, paid him for it. He showed me some basic maintence things and I had AAA for emergencies (had to be towed once). It was one of the best experiences of my life and encourage everyone to do it to one degree or another. I planned on it being 3-4 months but stretched it out to 13 months (working on a horse farm for 2 months, staying at hostels and campsites and with some distant family and family of friends helped a lot). Good luck!

Even if that were true, she's smart for finding a way to make what she's got work for her. Right now she's beating the system.

Honestly watching this makes me wanna live in a car now lmao
ITS LILAC ikr
Yea no maybe a van tho
@Koriander Yander hi how's the living situation in your car going now? I'm a cna too. I'm tired of busting my butt off to barely make it so I'm thinking about living in my car once my 1 year lease is up. What do you do for protection just in case? How do you stay warm during cold frosty winters? And what do you eat as a healthy tasty staple daily?
It's really not a bad idea you could save a lot of money I'm on my third day living in my car and I love it
ITS LILAC lol
"Just some car shi--stuff car stuff" lol that was awesome.
I think you are so cool! I am 52 years old and consider myself ki d of old fashioned but you just made me smile. My husband and I been married for 34 years and we often talk about letting our married daughter and grandkids have our home and down sizing to an much smaller place and living minimal. It seems like it would be so free and fun for the next chapter in our life. Be safe out there and God bless you.
Im 4 yers od
i like dogs I’m 9 and I’m a mad lad and a Pewdiepie fan
How thoughtful and generous of you😄
Beoth
You can give your home to me. I'll pay rent 😁
Love your build! I live full time in my Prius and totally appreciate your set up and vibe!
You are Origanized. Minimalist is Great. You have everything you need and only buy out of necessity. Wishing you the Best on your current adventure 💯💖
uhm i’ve never been to oovoo javer

Amen.

Amen 🙏😇
Its crazy..I have watched this video several times. Like I catch something new each time. Love the bookshelf to closet dresser/ drawer conversion.
Okay change of plan. I'm gonna live in an SUV and decorate I t kinda like this when I turn 18....I'm 12....no worries I just need a job which has a free RV park to stay in, and I would only need a portable electrictric stove I guess lmao.....I would need a few small boxes fox miscellaneous items and shelves for clothes, I dont wear much lol. I would probably buy one of the camping showers......a bucket for u know what, a water tank:) oh yeah and a cooler!!! And a few utensils in a small bag, a tiny table and cutting board.....ramen too...okay I'm taking this far. Basically in a nutshell imma go live in a 2nd hand SUV which I would take to the garage for fix ups then put the crap I need in it 👍
Alxxis not a good idea
@@karaigrayson8198 shhh I might get a van instead
same but i'm 11
Or a van more space 😉😁
C'mon guys, it's Just a dream!
I would love to do this but I am WAAAY too paranoid... I be watching too many crime shows lol ;CC
häschengeav what would you think would happen?
i would think someone would stalk me i or like watch me even with the windows covers

That looks cozy I could do that for a few weeks
I can do it for few days
Yazzmen Mobley with no shower?
Najela Touh Agree
I lived out of a pickup for a year, traveling the USA. I loved it and miss it. Enjoy your posts......
What a simple way to live. It must feel so free. Love it!
Honestly, after seeing this tour I dont know why anybody would ever pay money for an apartment or house. I mean this is a million times cheaper and Its about the size of my room :)
Triplet Squad Exactly! If you can make your car cozy for about 6 months you should be able to save a big down payment for a nice house. That’s what I’m fixing to do anyway.
Triplet Squad we would live in a house because we want room to move around, to actually use our own bathroom, room for family. I don't like small closed in spaces. I would loose my mind.
OrganicallyNique - To each their own. Millions of people live in homes worldwide BUT live paycheck-to-paycheck and NO SAVINGS. Several people have lived in their vehicles simply to save money to BUY a home with CASH and live a MORTGAGE FREE life. Lots of house poor folks with homes (as in, you have a home but after paying the mortgage or rent, you are broke and barely making it). I'd live like this any day to save up more money. One RUclipsr saved up over $200,000 in less than two years and purchased her home last year (she has a good paying job). So while you may be comfortable moving from room to room in a home, are you comfortable FINANCIALLY? Do you have at least $25,000 minimum stacked away for an emergency 🤔 (i.e. lost of employment, eviction/foreclosure, etc.).
Triplet Squad My Boyfriend and I are getting a new apartment September we don't want a damn car I'm claustrophobic as hell and we would like to live in a apartment place that has bed everything not a damn car
andrew carson - To each their own. Good luck to you!

This is honestly so cool that she does this I mean no bills no parents you get the idea
Thanks for that❤️
I love that! You've basically made your own cheaper version of a RV. you can travel where ever and take all your belongings with you.
What an amazing concept, you are totally right, home is where you park it :)

And... you are so beautiful! I love your hair 🥰
Cleaner then my own house😭
Me too. I want to become a minimalist
Kind of have to or else itll be cluttering
Clean your house
What motivated you to become minimalist? Why are you living out of your van? Where do you shower? Are you vegan?
Lolita's Worlddd Vegans don't have houses? I didn't know that. Wow.
?????
Vegan do have cribs. I am asking questions that she can have a follow-up video. She does have a house. She decided to live out of her van and is giving a tour in this video. I really do hope that your comment is sarcasm. but yes there are some vegan and non-vegans that do not have homes...
24K Info maybe she's just asking because all the food shown in the video was vegan?
who?
Girl I respect your independents and your home !!! Peace love and happiness.
Dont matter if this video came out year ago, 10min ago a week ago...it coincidently pops up after girl w snake does..lol
When I travel, I get baby wipes,( and some refills-100 wipes for 99 cents) in the plastic container, add some water, lemon/lime juice, witch hazel and a little lavender oil to keep up the hygiene between rest stops and hotels, which is particularly good for "personal areas" as well.
Okay I had to subscribe instantly after watching this. I just love your vibe😩 💓
So brave. Amazing. I personally would never want to leave the comfort of my house, unlimited hot water, cooking whenever I want, sleeping in my fluffy bed and playing my pup in the backyard. But I guess as an experience I am willing to try. Then again I am obsessed with the idea of security so really yall are so brave.
This is lit af, I'm so intrigued!! & you're from NC!!!
I own a 04 Trailblazer and I’ve been struggling to make this choice, but watching this I appreciate you. You have gave me inspiration to start this journey. Have a beautiful adventure and be good. ✌🏽

I had no idea you're going through all that that's why in life you have to appreciate things that you have
She chose to live in a car herself
Materialism is a false since of status it's what you possess on the inside of your self that counts 😌😌😌 you can have lots of things and have nothing.
OMG,for someone who lives in that small space...GURL!!You made it wooooork!!!!
That’s so cute wtf? She got everything she needs 😭💓
Good for her! Yeah she's living in her car but atleast she works and doesn't stand outside stores and asks for money. GOOD FOR YOU!!!!!

Thank you. I am about to do this, too. It is great finding ideas from those already successfully sleeping in the car.
Love the old bookshelf storage. So much room for stuff.
I once was homeless but came out of this now married now me and my wife Feed the homeless it’s Sad that all these homes where no one lives at people can’t get them fix them up and live
Wow that said alot :( I'm glad you and your wife are doing something great now and your not going through a time like that anymore.
I left my home and let it foreclose. I never really felt homeless because I had a roof. There were definitely times when I was cold and hungry though. Glad you're back on your feet and helping others!! 😀✌
You can take showers at truck stops - $10 - $15, I guess. (It's been a couple years for me) Best to bring your own spray bottle of bleach-water and wear flip-flops!
Great idea with the loops for the curtain rod, im gonna do that in my van
I love the reusable bamboo utensils!
I really like that you and uour brother worked together on your goal for this
I've done this!!! I didn't have a choice to be homeless tho, I was a drug addict. I did it all alone, & I had my own Wal-Mart parking lot spot. I even painted it & stuff. My boss would let me shower at her house, I only told her my water heater was broke.
& I also did this in my 2003 GMC Envoy, which is technically a Trailblazer 💖
I love the gold refletix! I often feel like I’m in a tin can with the silver!
Much respect for u. I'd love for u to come to Ireland and teach me how to declutter and get rid of so much stuff. You have everything so neat and so well organised.
Cool digs! Stayed in my car 4 9 months...a moment off the grid puts everything in perspective. Get in tune with nature, and who u really b 😎.
