>>1594192I used to follow this dude's early webpages when they mostly were about fixing and building your dream home on wheels, and about enjoying /out/life (winter in hot places, etc)
Then, sadly, he switched to shitty things (romance, socializing, doggos, philosophy), as if there was no more to say about building, preparing and fixing. I stopped reading and commenting long ago
Fun fact: as long as you have some passive income (it could be as low as 10k/year) for gas and groceries and emergency fund, and place to crash - say, your cousin's old countryhouse barn -, you don't feel you need to build a complicated philosophical explanation to cope with the fear of getting rekt by some random poorly treated illness
Many years later I'm still dreaming about going vandwelling. Yet I never jumped in because a decent van and accessories, plus 3 years minimum expenses (don't delude yourself thinking in 1-2 years you will find out some magical income source), sums up to no less than 60-70k, and my savings were never above 3k
Long ago I also slowly built a map of places in my (euro)country where I could dwell for more than a night while having some pharmacy+groceries+mechanics+train station in a few miles radius. Sadly most of them were destroyed by thugs'n'drugs, new buildings/parkings, prostitution, fires, tourism, illegal dumpsters
Not only it's becoming increasingly difficult to find places where you can dwell without being noticed by locals, thugs, police; there's also this weird thing about diesel ban, and in a few years you may need to ride 30-40 miles for a gas tank refill. A full electric van is already out there, but if you had 200k to waste you were already on the road on a brand new gas one
Note, I'm assuming nomad life is way more than being a stinky hobo on wheels. Frugality is not about saving every single penny. Being a philosophically self-proclaimed enlightened faggot doesn't mean your mind is actually healing. Nomadism is a prolonged touristic travel
