Vanlife seems a little extreme lifestyle change.
I think a good middle ground is to buy a cheap piece of land outside of the city, and putting a small/cheap structure on it. RV/Camper, converted shed (Tiny houses are nice, but $$$).
Live off grid and the only cost you'd pay is property taxes.
- leggomylibro 7y agoMaybe, but you would still be tied to one place without any people around, and I can't imagine having to live like this without being able to run away. Personally, I'm sort of hoping for an immediately fatal motorcycle crash before I have to worry about going back to work, but I'll probably stick with renting if that doesn't pan out. In the meantime, there's an old joke that brings me comfort: A person is running from an angry bear when they stumble off a cliff and get snagged by a strawberry bush, which is in full bloom. Looking up, they see the bear watching them patiently. Looking down, they see a sheer cliff and a fatal drop with no handholds. Certain death above, certain death below, and the person won't survive long without water. What should they do? Answer: eat the strawberries.
