My life got so much better when I became homeless because I live in my paid off car, I have no debt at all and I have thousands of dollars to play with! I have been living this lifestyle for 6 months now and I absolutely love it!
I moved into my SUV 6 years ago and it was the BEST Life Choice I've ever made! I'm self employed, debt free and make a very comfortable living. I get to live the Life of my Dreams by not paying for living in a house or apartment... True "Wealth" is being Happy with what you have and not buying stuff to impress people you don't even like! I choose Experiences over Posessions every time!
@gaganb1159 I'm a Super Minimalist so if you walk by my SUV during the daytime, you'd never think that someone lived there. It's a complete No Build. It has all the seats and just a few black and yellow plastic boxes, in the back, with my things... I sleep comfortably in the Driver's seat, fully reclined, and I don't even cover my windows. As far as anyone is concerned, I'm just napping between my gig shifts.
@gaganb1159 She's a 2004 Toyota Highlander with over 500,000 miles on the odometer. I'm so proud of my Micro Home!!! Are you a full time vehicle dweller too? And if so, what do you drive and call home?
This is such great information for those who want to move into their vehicle but are scared of appearing to be homeless or actually becoming homeless. It was so uplifting. Thank you for sharing!
I’m with you! I’m living in my car to build my businesses (romance author and RUclips) and save money to buy a stand up van to travel and… exactly what you said, having the money to get a hotel and rent an AiirBandB when I want to. We’re totally on the same wavelength 😊 I’m doing it the exact same way! Libraries are amazing lifesavers! I eat carnivore based too. Also, love your set up! You’ve got this! I can’t wait to see you reach your goals!
Hi Freya! This is so awesome, very similar paths! Love that you are also carnivore based, there so many plant base or vegans in this lifestyle that I was a little bit worry that people would get offended by it! Thank you for stoping by my channel, and I hope you reach all of your dreams too!
Outstanding video. I have been watching these type of videos for over a year. You nailed it! Very organized and practical. I love the way you think. Thank you so much for sharing!
Thank you. I will be doing this in about a year. I need to save, get out of debt, yes get a bigger vehicle, move forward more with my ministry. I’m a little scared but last year I traveled and stayed in my SUV. I liked it!
I live in Southern California as well. I have put in my notice to move out of my place that I have lived in for 15 years to live in my car. My goals are to get physically fit and get out of debt. I have shared a wall with two separate inconsiderate neighbors who party and have been so loud. So basically I have payed over hundreds of thousands of dollars on rent just to miserable in a tiny apartment with selfish neighbors. I am so looking forward to living minimally with freedom! My brother lived in his car for a few years, I would invite him to stay at my place but he preferred sleeping at the beach.. he paid off his debt and is now living in a beach front apartment. If I ever get a place it will be in a tiny home or a Sprinter van I will never share a wall with anyone ever again lol
I relate a lot! I was also felt stuck in my apartment, also trying to get fitter and financially in shape... I hope you get to live this wonderful life that you are searching for!
This is literally the most helpful video I have watched on this subject, I am so appreciative because I really feel inspired about the habits .. a reminder of its importance and the foundation is so good. The gym and library because I’ve been considering this because of debt payoff but I really appreciate you sharing you are definitely the kind of creator I want to follow your so rational, and it’s kind of exciting too! So thank you for this video!!❤
Thank you SO much for this comment, I really hope I can help people turn their lives around while changing mine! Thank you for taking time to write this comment!
Thank you for sharing your strategies. Cool stuff!! I'd love to see a video (maybe you have one already) about how things go with respect to friends-life or love-life. Also, you said you're in SoCal, so, hope you're safe from the wildfires (sure you are) but also at good enough distance from possible smoke too! (it matters to not breath bad air).
I stumbled across one of your videos completely by chance. I've watched several of them now and you have no idea how much I hope you succeed and find the happiness you're looking for. Maybe you should now do a video that focuses on your art.
I’m glad you like my videos! I am working hard to create art and hopefully, I can share that soon. I am more focus on getting a lot of shifts so I can become debt free as soon as possible!
Agreed, not boring. Just found, or rather your videos found me. Subbed, binging and happy you are monetized! Wish you continued forward momentum and all the best. How about some vids on you working on your art, what it means to have commissions from start to finish. I love that you are so minimal and keep to a no cook/ no coffee making in your car. That right there sets you apart from many. Nice to see someone doing what works for them as opposed to following the car life trends. 😊 that's one reason I enjoy your vids, you aren't following nor act like all the thousands of others in vehicle dwelling. REFRESHING!!🎉🎉 oh, have you tried "Fivver"? With your creative talent and your previous employment experience, it would seem you have a lot to offer.
Thank you! I looked at fiverr, I am not sure it's for me, it's more for graphic designers! Thank you for this wonderful comment I really Appreciate it!
I do believe that its a great idea to live this way, if you think you have the freedom that people with a fix place don't have certainly for many reasons.... I think you doong very well with the routine. In terms of doing food for your self in can be on local public green areas where its like a barbecue thing and do your all complete meal, perhaps two to three a week this definitely helps a lot with your nutritional routine.
Good video. Routine is very important. I’m also debating upgrading from a Prius to a van but I love this car. Can’t beat hybrid overnight A/C, even the van people complain about the heat. I have been cross country many times in the Prius and it’s far cheaper on gas than other vehicles. Keep improving yours!
What a beautiful episode, Juliette! I can relate since I, too, have a Prius V that I use for camping and art-making as I travel. I have travelled across several states and here in NM, where I live. Your clear advice about routine and organization is important. I am learning from you, although I am at a different time and have different challenges in my life. Thank you so much for your content. I would be interested in seeing your work and more about your art-process. Please keep up this excellent content!
Thank you so much for the kind words! I'm really glad you are finding it helpful. 😊 I am working on how to include my Art in my videos, At the moment I am working a lot because becoming debt free is the most important part, BUT the end goal is making art while traveling!
So for content, I just want to share that I love DITL videos even if it’s “dull” i.e. here’s the gym, here’s Panera, here’s the library. I will watch that every week But also, I love seeing new places. On one of your holiday days, I’d love to see a beauty spot in your area or any other interesting place. Anyway, best wishes, hope you’re having a great day!
Thank you for this video ! Fist time I like so much the content for this topic : keep it simple, stay focused, stick to a routine > really good advice !
@@julietathenomadartist do you have any socials media also to follow ? I strongly a book call outwitting the devil . Best book I ever read . Keep it up 💪
You are doing so well. Maybe you will write a book about your practical outlook and experience. . Our brains work better with routine. When we have to stop and think about every little detail our brains can shut down and get overwhelmed. It’s like learning to drive a car. When we were first learning we had to concentrate so hard until it became a routine. I guess it makes sense that other tasks in our life also have to become somewhat routine.
Great video. Little question. Did you sell all your belongings or using a small storage unit? I have some things which I really want to keep, can’t let go of atm. Also did you find it hard to get work with no fixed address? I’ve heard it can be a problem. 🤔
Thank you! No, I don't have a storage unit... I have one box in a friends house and that's it. My former roommate is a goof friend of mine so I still use his address...
You're an intelligent woman, julieta, i believe you're doing it the right way by living in your car.... there are less bill's that way...well, a little less bills...
Great video. I enjoy watching content like this but I get anxious driving and I'm not that independent. Yet I would like to travel in the states too one day. Idk how it's going to work 😅
Great video! I currently live in my car due to being homeless. I don't feel quite so bad about it after watching this. As you have an absolute minimum in the car do you have a storage unit or similar where uou keep things?
Thanks! I don't have a storage unit... I have one box in a friends house and that's it, Is pretty amazing how little things we actually need... If you have to live in your car, then you may as well change your perspective and find the good side!
BTW, great video, love your attitude and how you follow your dreams! How do you find a safe spot to park overnight? Do you feel safe, and do you carry any protection?
I do have some protection, I live in a area that is pretty safe, I go to side residential streets (it took me a while to find the ones that work) and I love Parking lots with a lot of campervans that are also staying overnight, they make me feel safe! I am in souther California, near the beach so there is a lot of travelers here...
@@julietathenomadartist Thank you for sharing! It’s great to hear you’ve found some safe spots. Residential streets can be tricky, but it’s awesome you’ve figured out what works for you. And parking lots with other campervans are such a smart choice-there’s definitely a sense of safety in numbers. Southern California near the beach sounds amazing, especially with all the travelers around. It must feel like you’re part of a little nomad community! 🌊🚐
One of the reason I went for the Prius is That is very reliable, doesn't have too many mechanical issues, at the moment never had to leave the car overnight for a repair, I guess I will crash with a friend If I have to!
Having a car makes the whole difference. You have car, you have a job, you dont have housing bills!!! You dont have to live in same neighborhood. Nice I wish many homeless people would have a car. That is what makes the difference.
@@julietathenomadartist get a Toyota Hiace 4*4 that’s what I am planning to buy however I am big sucker for space and comfort but I don’t mind little adjustments and there is nothing reliable as toyota.
It's honorable...you effort.. .payingoff debt...most Americans..or at least some just default.. Infact its looking like the usa ..itself will default.. Each American...now owes approximately.. 395k..when .. born into the USA...if you include our federal debt owed 😮
I had a lot of comment of people telling me to file bankruptcy.. but I don't want to do that, a few months of hard work will take care of my debt! Thank you for the support!
@julietathenomadartist ...just change ur phone number.... bankruptcy not necessary... anyway.. Admirable what you are doing..cheers...from Pensacola Florida...we will get snow Tuesday.. fun 😊
I am waiting for the return to work order; with trump on a rampage to destroy this country. Since I live over 90 miles from my office, and I have a pension and state job, which I am not walking away from, I plan on moving into my car. This video was helpful and hopeful. I do live on the East coast with brutal winters. I am not sure how I will survive those; but I guess I will figure it out.
My life got so much better when I became homeless because I live in my paid off car, I have no debt at all and I have thousands of dollars to play with! I have been living this lifestyle for 6 months now and I absolutely love it!

Can you keep your Prius in Ready Mode and stay comfortable? That's one of the big advantages of a Prius.
Yes, I can, I usually do it during the summer if it's too hot, but not very often, I am in southern Cali so the weather is very mild...
Having a car makes the whole difference.
You have car, you have a job, you dont have housing bills!!!
You dont have to live in same neighborhood.
Nice
I wish many homeless people would have a car. That is what makes the difference.
I agree! I am grateful for my car and the freedom it gives me.

I wouldn't be able to maneuver to pee in the can. I don't see any floor space to squat. Sadly my back and knees are too creaky for this now.
