      I think the worth isn't about whether they shower or not but about the convenience of showering when and where they want vs having to go to a truck stop or something. Even if you only use it once per week it'll be worth it because you can shower at your convenience.

    The people asking if being able to bath while traveling is worth it probably don't have the best hygiene. Being able to shower in the comfort of your own space whenever you want and not have to pay and/or risk an infection will always be worth it. I understand how privileged I am to have a safe secluded shower that always has hot water at my disposal, but even last year when I was homeless at 18 showering was non negotiable and always worth it.

    • @TexasDevin

Even flushing the dam toilet I pull the handle 30 times, Showering 2-3 times per day. Coworkers laugh at my toilet habit, but it’s been habits I have never forgot.

We have fun but my uncle might not be feeling like company on his small farm . He’s 98 years old and my cousin his son takes care of him . At 95 he was getting around better than me . Thus year he’s starting to get hard hearing and forget things. I do love him and am grateful to have family that love people.

On the one hand I love to start the day fresh and clean, on the other hand I will have most overnight stays in marinas with infrastructure. Then I reconsider and want to have a shower if I'm anchored in a remote bay. A shower is a bit of a waste of space, but I'm usually on my own so it's not so bad.

      When we had our 30' Yankee we had a Sun Shower, one of those 5 gal solar heated vinyl bags that came equipped with a hose and nozzle (I did a quick search and there's something similar called a Camp Shower on Amazon). It was good for those days when we were anchored in a cove that didn't have shore amenities and we needed a quick "hot spot" cleaning (I'll let you use your imagination for that 🙂); we used it hung from the boom over the cockpit. We didn't have a lot of water tankage on the Yankee, and we reserved what we had for drinking and cooking.

Another option would be to install an outdoor shower in the cockpit that is connected to the hot water system.

    I would not live in a van without a shower, period. I'm one of those people who sweats just thinking about exertion and basically never go a day without a shower, and sometimes twice a day if it's especially muggy or I had a long day working up a nice sweat.
    The main issues are of course how much valuable space it takes up, how much water it uses, heating that water, and the potential for mold and mildew. Makes building and maintaining a van that much more complicated and expensive.
    I've been toying with this idea of a convertible shower to save on space. Not the kind that you put together and tear down, but a fixed, built-in shower that when it's not in use is taken up with some sort of storage unit or closet that either rolls or swings in and out into the open space of a van, and also doubles as the toilet. Love the skylight btw!

      It’s actually not good for your skin or your hair to shower too much. Every other day is fine, as long as you use wipes or other things on the off days. It definitely depends on how physically active you are as well. You should change undergarments every day though.

    There are out side units that are self contained used the small propane tank and heat 5 gallons of water. It is way easier to shower out side and use a chemical toilet. Way less problems with leaking gray water tanks. The all leak not if but when .plus run your lighting on a 12 volt solar system. That way you just need a inverter to run the refrigerator or AC.

    One way to help your van not get stuck in the sand is to air down the tires to about 15 psi just make sure that you don't go below that PSI rating otherwise your tires will be beat from the rim and you will have to contact the tow truck to get them back on hope this helps 👍🏿

    Once, being around 20 yo, I had two weeks in wild camping. The tent was by the sea in an island, there was no fresh water, so I needed to carry it in two 15 L jerrycans, for cooking and whatsoever. It was so arduous the long job of going to mainland by ferry and carrying the water for more than one km, that its use for hygiene was severely restricted. If one could wash the hair, rinsing included, with two liters, it was ok, once a week.
    It was a fabulous time, but when, completely exhausted and quite dark, I put myself under the shower for half an hour, I changed colour.
    We can improvise almost everything, even a shower.
    We just need fresh water, what is not always very accessible...
    Ah, and soap.
