Not too long ago i was blessed with a vision or dream (whichever one suits the story) of living chain-free from the monster that they call society. In it i was living in a van and hopping from construction site to construction site being a day laborer and moving on every few days. Now that doesnt sound that great, i know; but at the time it was the best idea i had come up with in a long while.
A little about me: my name is Isaac. Im 21 years old. I am an introvert. My hobbies are mainly motorcycling, meditating and piddling around in a little of everything else. I work as an assistant designer for a local company but before that i was a construction worker.
Soon after the dream, i started looking further into the idea of living on the road. I found a book by Robert Wells about living in a van, trailer or Rv and it really got my motivated to kickstart my new path in that general direction. I ordered a custom cargo trailer from a company in georga, with no rear door, its like a camper trailer.
Then the delays set in. I lost motivation when i was given the opportunity to move in with a buddy. Before i knew it i was making plans to buy a house. Thank god i didnt. Through the approval process i finally came to my senses; realizing that by signing that mile-high stack of papers, i was signing my entire life, and assets over to a corporation. They already own my job. Why should i give them my life as well?
With the lease up in three weeks and still having done nothing toward finding a new place to live i decided to take a moto trip. Some time on the road would do quite a bit to clear my thoughts. While i was gone i realized that i had ABSOLUTE power of the course of the next 30 years of my life. With that in mind, on top of the mountain i was down to two basic choices. Like in the Matrix, it was either the blue pill, or the red pill.
In two weeks i turned the trailer into a suitible living space. It is not the best; if i had spent all those months working on it, instead of wasting my time, it would be nicer. But i will improve it as i go.
Last night i had my first meal as a vandweller, and i feel great. I woke up this morning with no clue as to where i was. And even though i didnt exactly wake up with a smile on my face, i did wake up earlier with more energy than i have had in a long time.
Here are a few photos of my trailer, my moto trip to the mountains, and the beautiful bird i got to see on my truck last year right after i bought the trailer (i took it as a good omen).
As i go along im sure i will have questions. I will post more later. Thanks for reading. Y'all have a wonderful day.
