Hello to everyone,
I read bob's book and am deeply intrigued with the idea of living in a vehicle. I have faced some financial hardship over the past year that has caused me to have to stay with family. I love 'em but am looking to get back on my own asap.
I live in Maryland, and rents for apartments are out of control in the National Capital Region. I have no desire to pay 1000-1300 per month for an apartment. I'm looking into some options, such as getting a smaller space/studio and rooming up with some fellow bachelors. But what if I found a way to live rent free?
So I'm looking to buy a used Cargo van and begin building a living space within. I have 3 small parrots so ensuring their safety and comfort will be a big part of my design. I'm in the process of flight/harness training them so they can get some outside time. Right now they're able to fly freely around the room so I'm concerned about the space issue in a van. But I'm sure with some planning and creativity this project will take flight!
I may end up renting an apartment anyway and having the camper van on standby in case I find myself without work again. I'm excited to embark on this project and look forward to sharing tips with everyone here.
Peace,
Felix
