I'm going into my second month full time van dwelling. I'm not going to make it another three weeks before my pension comes. From all my expenses, supplies, repairs, food.....it's already taken so much of my budget I'm going to need to find financial help as soon as I can. How do those living on...

The temps here are in the mid 20s so it's hot for this area lol. The van is a 2007 Dodge Grand Caravan. I paid 400 for it. Just needs brakes and muffler fixed. I'm waiting on money now to get it all done. I will be heading out to fort mac to see my oldest son once things get done here. This is...

for those that have ventured out on the road already and are willing to look back at the beginning, what would you say to those that are in the beginning stages of starting out? do you have any advise, tips or hacks you could share or just general information? Thanks
