  A critical thing that hardly anyone talks about in living in a van, schoolie, or any RV full-time &nbsp;is when it is broke down an it needs major repairing. &nbsp;If it&apos;s in a shop for a while, you&apos;re essentially homeless. &nbsp;I feel this is a HUGE issue that needs to be talked about an addressed way more than it is. &nbsp;So what then? &nbsp;For me, I tend to van life for the reason of no rent or mortgage, so I don&apos;t travel all that much, an when I do, it&apos;s not so far from a friend I can couch-surf, but it IS a major factor in determining if you can actually live the life.

  I&apos;ve seen a lot of videos like this and no one has talked about the things you did.<br>Everyone just says:&quot;Inform yourself and invest in good solar pannels&quot; ect.<br>And you go with:&quot; go barebone first&quot; and god this needed to be said and I think it will motivate a lot more people since the starting point is so low and it seems very fun to slowly &quot;level up&quot;.

  Getting your heart broken doesn’t sound lame at all. It sounds honest and vulnerable. Much respect. Appreciate you sharing your journey with us. So excited for when I can begin my vanlife journey. Who knows, maybe we’ll bump into each other someday out on the road.

  Your videos came at a perfect time in my life. Similar circumstances happened to me. Loss of career and relationship. I have no drive or ambition. I am now starting a build and seeking adventure.

  After being lost for many years and eventually finding my faith in Christ. I have found myself wanting to drastically change myself and the world around me, Vanlife has been heavily contemplated these past few months. Even though this video is 2 years old, I truly feel it was needed to make a final decision and commit to it. So I do plan on using all your advice, and I pray it&apos;s right for me. Thank you Trent for the advice

  I became homeless after I left my violent husband &nbsp;i lived in my car for 2 years realising it’s better to live in a vehicle than be injured &amp; dead &amp; now I have my van which is my happy place I love my van life &amp; I’ve started my own YouTube channel recently documenting my van life while recovering from domestic violence &amp; educating others about safety plan’s &amp; safety strategies etc however at the end of the day I’m just grateful to be alive

  This is the best advice I&apos;ve heard so far. You don&apos;t simply tell people &quot;just go do it,;&quot; you actually give someone a couple of steps to START doing it. No one ever helps with &quot;the how&quot; on starting and figuring it out. Thank you for this!
