123gwf sorry I know this is a mile ago, but please don't , its not the answer, you're special and beautiful in every way , you don't need to drink, you'll get health issues later and you really need to live your life now, stay positive, if you do a list of what you want in life and mindfulness techniques it really does help. I am someone who has struggled with anxiety and depression and I could choose alcohol, but I know there are lighter and more beautiful paths to take. X
LIFE UPDATE: I just want to say for those who are or are considering living in their car but are unsure due to hygiene or need help. There are 2 GREAT alternatives to maintaining excellent hygiene. 1.) You can buy a gym membership, (yoga, rock climbing etc). I prefer 24 hour fitness (or any place that's open 24hrs) not only do they provide showers, towels, soap, you can work out, swim, enjoy the spa, relax, pretty much it's like a mini retreat. I did a free 3 day trial my first week in a 1/2 (then I started sneaking in, until they were on to me lol), Downfall is the monthly fees, Especially when you first sign up. I mean hey if you don't mind paying $75-100 a month cool, (either way, you're saving money). I too was going to jump on the wagon until I came up with the most AMAZING idea, which is now my solid alternative. (2. I went to a 5 Star, luxurious sky rise condo/building, located downtown San Diego, and told the front desk man that I was a current resident and I "lost my KEY FOB" (Access Key) and I would like to purchase a new one. the gentleman told me In order to replace my key fob, i would need to contact HOA and either have them mail me a new key fob or pick it up at the main office, (of course I chose to pick it up). You guys, for only $50 I was able to purchase a key fob (if they ask what's your address just use the address of the building, follow by picking a door #), and now enjoy the luxury of the amazing amenities of what this condo offers. No monthly fees, or stress, I'm safe, I can work out, enjoy free yoga, wifi, spa, do my HW in the study room etc. no one knows I don't actually live there because I have my own key fob 😊. Smartest decision I've made yet. but I just wanted to share that with you guys. it's not hard living in a car, it's how you make it. and like I mentioned, I never felt so free
Angelica Thompson why cant you just stay with a relative......wtf has the world gone to normalizing being homeless and turning your car into a small apartment.
I used to live at a Walmart parking lot for 9 months with my one year old son in an rv. Wish I would have documented that part of my life, it wasn't because I wanted to but because I had to but idk your video reminded me of that. There were so many others that lived in their cars and rvs at that same Walmart too.
I'm a homeless 67 year old man with disabilities, I've been living out of my car for 2 years, but Walmart's are cracking down on people staying no more than one night, its difficult to find a place to park, & not worry about getting tickets for trying to sleep in your car, times are changing , when you cant find a place to park, & sleep, its lonely out here with no family or friends, because I'm on the move so much , here in the mountains of Arizona, its winter now, it gets cold at night, plus my doctor's are here, it's hard to travel far, but if I can do it so can anyone. God bless
For your safety next time I think you should make sure you don't get your jobs name in there because people are able to pin point your location just be safe.
By the same token you could have asked, since you're young and beautiful the majority of straight male humans would like to get into your pants, constantly, so how do you deal with those that cannot accept rejection?
Sweetie if you're going to do a tour of your Jeep, I suggest you cover your license plates. I've noticed you have a few questionable followers. Don't give them any ammo. All the best to you :-)
I don't think they are over reacting. I have read comments on here and there are real A-holes who just loves to go around and spread misery by putting everything down. They really must have no life at all. Those are some of the weirdos you want to be careful about.
Thanks for the advice everyone! Definitely will take extra precaution to cover the license plates and keep the personal info minimal :) good lookin out.
if you wanted stuff to cover your windows for cheap, you could buy cheap velcro and just attach them to cheap blankets or stuff like that. that way you have more privacy for yourself.
Interesting! Has anyone every looked in your car window at you while you were awake in your sleeping bag? I think I would be afraid to sleep if I thought someone could see me when I am sleeping. It would make me feel very vulnerable.
Back in the late 90's I lived in a camper van and I loved it! My friends back home dubbed me "the gypsy" because they never knew where I was, or what I was doing until they got a postcard. Watching your videos reminds me of that time in my life and makes me smile. Enjoy the journey!
I am literally obsessed with you. You are literally me! My car is my second home, I've lived in my car before and it honestly wasn't as bad as everyone would think. I have so much respect for your life style.
Girl you have literally been so helpful I will be moving into my car in the next week and I have been so anxious and nervous but you have really calmed my nerves and showed me that it's doable thank you for sharing your experience.
I stayed in my car for about a month meanwhile I was working 16hr shift days at a warehouse and saved up to rent an apartment. And now I’m currently working at law firm in Beverly Hills so I’m so thankful I was able to get myself out of that situation.
I'm enjoying going through all your videos. Your living your life & enjoying it. Do what makes you happy! It may not be anyone else's version of happiness but if it's yours, own it, live it & always enjoy it. I'm currently contemplating my next possible home whether in a house or maybe an alternative option. Be safe out there & keep the awesome videos coming. Your living my motto: 💜busy making memories💜
You have such a great smile. As for failure thoughts, well you can't learn if you don't allow yourself to fail. I'd seriously put like a semi-privacy tint as it does feel safer in my experience (Yes I do sleep in my car too)
I know you said you aren't going to tint your vans windows but man I'd at least tint the rear ones to keep your privacy. I'd feel creeped out knowing anyone can just peer in.
Definitely subscribed. I think what you're doing is absolutely amazing. I work a full time job and make plenty of money. But I'm learning that life is about happiness and fun. You're an inspiration to me. Keep it up and never listen to the people that try to put you down.
I was homeless like this for a couple of years, off and on between 15-18 years old. I'm married now and living the suburban life, lol... But someday we're gonna go back on the road. Can't wait.
And as far as what others are saying about how unsafe and foolish you're being... They don't realize that they're every bit as vulnerable in a home. Windows can be broken, doors kicked in. Everyone's address can be found online. Living like this doesn't make you any less safe, as long as you are careful and street smart (like EVERYONE should be). Anyone can get stalked and killed in a parking lot no matter where they rest their head at night. You just keep doing what feels right for YOUR life. xoxox
The difference is that I'm not making a video with the reach of 100,000+ people and giving them all my info to be able to find me. Even though it's possible for someone to track me down, she's making it a lot easier and boosting the likelihood by showing where she works.
+Kyle Wolfe don't forget to mention how much easier it is to reach a person through a car than through a house. You can have safe rooms in a house. alarms that call police. It's legal so you won't have to worry about going to the cops for help on the situation. Just all around a safer place to be.
+L'appel DuVide you're very pretty it's a shame you had to deal with that life at such a young age. Just another addition to the long list of fucked up shit in this world
Love your videos!! I would definitely be interested in seeing a tour of the Jeep! Thanks for making awesome content-- I always really enjoy watching everything you upload. 💜
Why can't you just buy a small RV or trailer ?? You could have access to water, and drive. You could save up money for that and it would still be like your current lifestyle but you have more resources.
Shit, just become a trucker. Drive all day in a truck and sleep in it at the end of the day... make a few grand a week and sleep in the truck at the end of the day. I hate it and can't stand being away from home, but its an okay paying career.
+Maxime Eyler lol yes buddy you make bank of trucking. takes less than a year to get your license and you can easily get a job for it after. Pretty solid career path but that's if you're willing to be on the road so often trucking not exactly doing what you feel like
Maxime Eyler you can make 234,000 yearly if your good at it. 1-5 dollars a mile depending on the load. My dad was the owner of 5 companies and it was amazing but sold all of them to just start driving himself.
Flunkerdunk she's fooling us. She doesn't really live in her car or she would become a flight attendant or a truck driver like you said where she can constantly travel. Do you honestly think this gorgeous girl is living in her car??
I don't know for how long you'll continue to live this lifestyle, but it is refreshing to see vlogs about this subject rather than documentaries about hobos. No clue what the feeling is called, but I feel like I can do something about my boring lifestlye. Thank you.
You are blessed because you are so beautiful. I would need to at least do my makeup and tie up my hair because I would look horrid if I wore my hair down without fixing it😂
If I had watched your vlogs back in the 1950's and 60's...you would have changed my life!!!! Wow! Kudos to you, my dear. You are a very brave lady. I wonder how old you are in this video. You are also very beautiful and I think that is going to work for you!!!! You're enjoyable to watch. Thank you for sharing!!!
I think it is awesome that Hobo Ahle lives the way she chooses. She is right in that a person who lives this way can save much money. I have done this and know from experience. I don't live in a car but sleep in an SUV instead of paying rent. I have traveled all over the United States and visited many National Parks by choosing this lifestyle. Living in a car , van or SUV is pretty much the same as living in a big truck, as truckers do, or living in an RV as many full time travelers do. Some people are not made to stay in one place all the time. Some people are true adventurers and like freedom rather than being bound to rent, a mortgage or one place. I get that Hobo Ahle is one true adventurer. Go Ahle!
Right! Like, it irks me that people keep saying, "if you live in your car, how can you afford... " Like, why is it so hard to understand that she lives in her car because she WANTS TOO not because she's poor?
Some Chick Name AJay yeah, they just jump into conclusions..yada yada yada.. but, basing from her previous vids, she already said that, this way of life was her own choice to begin with.. and we don't even know their family background.. so, it's just a part that most people would not know
Wouldn't it be cool 2 turn living in a vehicle into a movement? It would also be really cool if there were designated parking areas for people that live in there vehicles so that they would not have to worry about being questioned by law enforcement for vehicle dwelling. I have a van and living in it can be tough at times even with all the basic amenities!
Agreed! Someone actually asked me yesterday what I would do if I was given 7 million dollars.... I had a list of 4 things and the 2nd was to buy land and make it a "free parking for all rv's, van dwellers, car dwellers, and travelers" hahha
Hobo Ahle In today's world it seems so much more plausible with the advent of natural gas, hybrid vehicles, etc. With this being the case, I would install these features at the camping sites and maybe even require that some or all of the vehicles there be these types. So much money would be saved on gas and, less air pollution!
You have my support! Seeing someone go out and do something is such a good quality for a human being even knowing that it might not or might work out. Good luck Ahle!
I'm 20 years old. Graduated high school almost 3 years ago. And this has been my dream life for the longest time . Buying a VW van and just driving the country.
Hi new to your channel.. was just wondering why you're still going to school if you felt it wasn't for you? Also, when you travel for a week each month do you just ditch/skip class and get notes from friends? Both of your work places are cool/flexible?
Me too. Takes me 1 hour to even be able to talk to another in the morning. Moving into my van in 30 days. Binging your videos today so I learn and you get paid while at work. Peace
totally loving these vids. Just found them. I'm a mobile dweller too. Living out in venice beach and I also attend college at SMC.. people have no idea how cool it is to live this way with modern technology. Its really good to see a girl like you doing these. More people need to learn the possibilities and this is the future for many people in the world its more affordable too
Thx...I was inspire to take a 1.5 month road trip with my dog all over western states, change my way of thinking and blow my mind and thinking of saying good by to my stationary life to live in a van and woke up in a strange difference places and states every morning...
after watching a few of these videos, I've been wondering what it would be like to live like this. I have 2 dogs though and don't see how it's possible to take a dog with you? You can't leave the dog in the car at any point because there's no air flow and they will easily overheat. It's not like you can take the dog everywhere you go, I don't see how it would work
What do you do with condensation? Surely living in such an enclosed space overnight would make the windows damp with condensation due to things like eating, drinking, damp clothes/shoes and even breathing. I'm not calling you out or anything, I'm just genuinely curious as to how you get around things like condensation and poor weather conditions making all your stuff cold, damp and a bit nasty.
you have inspired me to try this . . I have a job that allows me to travel .. I'm in Australia . thanks to you x I'm now going to spend 2 years living in my work van and drive the 25, 000 kms around the coastline of Australia
She has two jobs and attends school. I think she may be doing this just because she feels like it. Not sure. Only found this channel a few minutes before I had to go to work, worked 10 hours, and am just now getting back to it. Found it because, come January 1st, I may start living in my car. No great job loss or other catastrophe. I currently have a place. I'm sitting in my bedroom right now. I work full-time. I just need some time away: no roommates, no family, no nothing, so it is possible she's just doing this for herself. Wasn't the original plan, but I may do it too. Oh, and when I say family, I mean parents and siblings. I'm not ditching a wife and kids or anything like that. lol
Journey With LuvHurts No. Not living in my car. Tried it briefly. Showered and used the bathrooms at the gym and work. I have 24 hour access to both. Parked at the gym to sleep. Then the heater in my car blew and it snowed. Got a cigarette lighter heater but it sucked. Rented a place with no lease for now. I'll try to take this vacation again around April.
Also noticed I spent a lot more money sleeping in my car. So easy to go out to eat when you're already behind the wheel constantly passing unfamiliar restaurants. I'll have to work on that before I go again. Toss $500 on rent but spend $300 on food? Not ideal. And a tank of gas, which usually goes for two weeks, was gone in one week.
Jonash Mallari I mean when you're out and have terrible diarrhea what do you do shit on yourself? Because i know i haven't never shit on myself out in public while having diarrhea
Jonash Mallari Did it just come out of nowhere and slid out? Did he not try to hold it in. So many questions. Did he try to make it through the bathroom?
You are obviously smart enough to be safe so while I feel like a little kid in love with my first grade crush I feel compelled to say please girl be safe and keep putting out super kool vids. You are awesome
Hey Ahle, how are you preparing for winter around the corner? My jeep doesn't have a heater so I can Imagine its going be a tough winter for you. How do you keep warm?!
I think it's really cool how you're doing what makes you happy! If you're ever in San Diego you should check out the La Jolla cove. You can go swim with the fish there, and there's also a lot of sea lions and seals. One time a sea lion swam under me! It was crazy lol
hahaha Damn Ahle, you're amazing. I consider myself a minimalist and living in your car is as minimalist as one can get and I wouldn't have any problems doing it myself! I think it's so funny you don't care whether the windows are tinted or not! You should get it tinted at least and maybe a car alarm while you're asleep? I don't know. Great job on the videos! You're a great personality :D
haha in the van I move into I will definitely have some sort of covering cuz the no window tint is a little sketchy sketch lol. but thanks a bunch for the positive vibes!
@Jane Doe She takes a lot of seasonal jobs. She isn't rich. Why would she work or fake working if she was rich. Many UA-camrs get subscribers by bragging about their wealth.
thanks for this even after watching this I still don't know how you do this. Its amazing what you do, your amazing. Kudos to your bravery ! mad respect.
In her last vlog, she said she don't expect to be finish with the Van until February. I think it is at a friend's house and she and her friends are fixing it up slowly. She is just living in her Jeep I think it is or some kind of SUV for now.
I'll be posting an update video in about 2 weeks :) It won't be much, I've been waiting to install an extended top on it before building the interior. The top should be happening the week of thanksgiving so then once it's on I shall show you all :D but yes +Garry Cole is correct. I have it parked at a friends and am taking my time fixing it up while I still live in my Jeep :)
As someone that enjoys his alone time i can tell you its definitely not weird that you like to eat alone. I prefer my solitude when i am doing things like this. Kudos ma'am sub earned
Do you crack a window (windows?) open at night? Or do you just rely on the air in the closed car all night? (That would make me feel stifled & headachy by morning!) Do you have a solution to keep the air in your car fresh?
Hi I’m Tony ! I lived in a Volkswagen camper van years ago then I went to a 20’ classic georgie boy motor home it was much more enjoyable! I quit after a while and settled in Florida
Mary Hines she's not homeless she chooses to live like this to travel and what not she's in school and works two jobs gift or not ps she could afford a apartment if she wanted but she rather live the hobo life
Love your reason for doing these vids. It is pretty inspirational seeing a little lady like you doing this... Thanks for sharing your life ;) I appreciate you.
rachael lamothe park on middle/upperclass streets, bushes, nonhouses on sides of you. Keep windows cracked 1-4.5 inches so harder to unlock ur door.. good neighborhoods with minimal cars, youll be fine. Only time some1 tried opening my door I told him off and left. Its generally safe ive never been assulted or ticketed for it. Best advice, act natural and youll be cool. Because for lots of people, a car is home. From caves, to tents, to homes... all can be made shelter, no such thing as homeless unless you never talk to anybody literally lol. Otherwise, best.
I really respect your independence and creativity. I wish I could do what you do and build a van-home, but can't afford it. Plus, you're beautiful. Van-crush is real.
what you're doing is awesome! save money, get your diploma and travel as much as you can! But yes, please, safety first! not everybody is sweet and nice like you xx lots of love
I love how u can live ur life like this. So simplistic but hectic at the same time. Such a natural beauty that doesnt need a lot of maintenance unlike me 😂 im such a high maintenance bish 😂😂
You really should tint your windows!!!!! You're already vulnerable....and even more vulnerable while sleeping. Anyone can walk up to that car see you in there sleeping.....please please be careful sweetheart.
I think it's so funny (coincidental funny) that you pick out your clothes you're going to wear for the next day and put them in the front. That's what I did too when I lived in my truck :) Thank you so much for putting these videos out here for us to view. I'm 31 and have been travelling on and off, as well as sleeping in my vehicles on and off, since I was 16 year old girl. It's an amazing experience and it sounds like you got the right ideas and are giving things a fair amount of thought before making the choice to do them. Congratulations for living on your terms and not allowing others to dictate how you would like to live your life. Brave AND smart. Women like you are an inspiration to many others :) Life's Good! Do what you like and like what you do!
Collage degree, works as a grunt worker in hospitality. Best thing i ever did was quit college! been ranodomly seeing your videos on my suggestions for 8 months. Watched a few videos and today decided to watch everything :D
I love your spirit! You seem to have this awesome aura or energy about you. I'm considering van life with my wife when we get to our retirement age. Love you vids!
This girl is so lucky she's no maintenance beautiful. Most girls would struggle because the would feel the need to do hair, makeup, etc. Great job. You actually make life seem more vibrant and interesting when you don't just go home and watch tv
just found your videos. I am 70 and you are so on the right track. I worked all my life for nothing. Stay safe enjoy every day.
John Doe I don't think she meant it like that... Like she worked w/o enjoying her life...
u should make videos about that, it could be helpful for young people.
you should make a video about that, id watch it.

At first I thought she was giving advise on road trip survival on a budget. Turns out she's just the happiest homeless person I've ever seen.
@Michael Smith what does that have to do with his comment? Good job you have the reading comprehension of a 6 year old.
Youre right i was being a jackass. My bad im not in a very good mood.
@Michael Smith your phrases are fine. Is english not ur first language?
I feel you girl, I'm 24 and I too am currently living in my car. I'm currently working on saving for an apartment. but I never felt so free 😃

why cant you just stay with a relative......wtf has the world gone to normalizing being homeless and turning your car into a small apartment.

"Damn, I should live in my car."
"Damn, I don't own a car."

Guess the next best thing is the street
This comment is my life LMFAO
lol I WAS going to say, go for it! lol but then i saw the rest
Good one ..haha
If you dont already have some get some mace and/or pepper spray . safety first

yea that too and tint the back windows too
Bradley James escape hatch first. Mace will affect her too in the van. Get out, spray then run!

yea that's good advice. Or take KMFDM's advice.. 'If you love her, buy her a gun.'

yes SP were great , true originators of the scene. also Frontline Assembly . good times

For your safety next time I think you should make sure you don't get your jobs name in there because people are able to pin point your location just be safe.

Usually would-be attacker have that already hence don't care.
Is it not? How can you tell?

Hobo Ahle it's also a good idea to keep your job and school details private.
if you wanted stuff to cover your windows for cheap, you could buy cheap velcro and just attach them to cheap blankets or stuff like that. that way you have more privacy for yourself.

That's an amazing idea!
Lisa D How do you know she don't or didn't live in her car? She probably live in her car we don't know that. And she got a van now so....
@@SweetKristen I agree
Can you please write a book about how to live minimally while living in a car?
Luis Garcia There are already plenty of books aswell as free resources on the topic like Reddit van dwellers and carliving101.
Luis Garcia good idea!
Interesting! Has anyone every looked in your car window at you while you were awake in your sleeping bag? I think I would be afraid to sleep if I thought someone could see me when I am sleeping. It would make me feel very vulnerable.

Your comment is from 2 years ago! How did it go or how is it going?
I stayed in my car for about a month meanwhile I was working 16hr shift days at a warehouse and saved up to rent an apartment. And now I’m currently working at law firm in Beverly Hills so I’m so thankful I was able to get myself out of that situation.

You have such a great smile. As for failure thoughts, well you can't learn if you don't allow yourself to fail. I'd seriously put like a semi-privacy tint as it does feel safer in my experience (Yes I do sleep in my car too)
Well said, and yeah once I move into my van I plan on having something for privacy on the windows :) Best of luck in your car!
Hobo Ahle so the rock climbing gym has the showers?? hmm...
Hey cheers! I've seen the van build (it's freakin awesome) yeah definitely gonna need tints all over it. Can't wait to see the finish build :)
It's funny because you're probably loaded from saving.
can you make a video about awkward car life moments?
I think pooping from the car window will definitely make her number 1 on that list

Lucas Devlin do you know her?
Katie Vidal
This is 1000x better than the mainstream vloggers
In 2021.....this is still facts
How do you prepare meals? What do you eat?
I know you said you aren't going to tint your vans windows but man I'd at least tint the rear ones to keep your privacy. I'd feel creeped out knowing anyone can just peer in.
girl you are beautiful. ugh i wish i could wake up and just naturely look bomb
*naturally
itsOURlife inc Sweetie, Life is not about how you look, it's about the person you are! And I'm sure you're Wonderful! That is true beauty! 🐙
+Debrajoy lol that's not her point
itsOURlife inc same!! she's soooo pretty ❤️ goals hah (no makeup the entire time omg)
itsOURlife inc same lol
Definitely subscribed. I think what you're doing is absolutely amazing. I work a full time job and make plenty of money. But I'm learning that life is about happiness and fun. You're an inspiration to me. Keep it up and never listen to the people that try to put you down.
I NEED the food video. I'm trying to figure out how to eat healthy on a budget without a refrigerator or stove
Toni Banks buy what you need and stuff in cans
I was homeless like this for a couple of years, off and on between 15-18 years old. I'm married now and living the suburban life, lol... But someday we're gonna go back on the road. Can't wait.
And as far as what others are saying about how unsafe and foolish you're being... They don't realize that they're every bit as vulnerable in a home. Windows can be broken, doors kicked in. Everyone's address can be found online. Living like this doesn't make you any less safe, as long as you are careful and street smart (like EVERYONE should be). Anyone can get stalked and killed in a parking lot no matter where they rest their head at night. You just keep doing what feels right for YOUR life. xoxox
Though it won't hurt to carry mace. And actually use it if you need to. ;)
The difference is that I'm not making a video with the reach of 100,000+ people and giving them all my info to be able to find me. Even though it's possible for someone to track me down, she's making it a lot easier and boosting the likelihood by showing where she works.
+Kyle Wolfe don't forget to mention how much easier it is to reach a person through a car than through a house. You can have safe rooms in a house. alarms that call police. It's legal so you won't have to worry about going to the cops for help on the situation. Just all around a safer place to be.
+L'appel DuVide you're very pretty it's a shame you had to deal with that life at such a young age. Just another addition to the long list of fucked up shit in this world
Love your videos!! I would definitely be interested in seeing a tour of the Jeep! Thanks for making awesome content-- I always really enjoy watching everything you upload. 💜
+Lauren Adkins Thanks a bunch! I'll be doing a tour very soon :) I'm glad to hear you're enjoying the videos!!
Why can't you just buy a small RV or trailer ?? You could have access to water, and drive. You could save up money for that and it would still be like your current lifestyle but you have more resources.
RV's are pricey and require routine maintenance. Trailers require driving skills for backing up or sharp turns.
Piglet No it's not.
You should get a tray table for eating and doing your homework
wonderful suggestion!
CUTEST HOBO EVER.
Shit, just become a trucker. Drive all day in a truck and sleep in it at the end of the day... make a few grand a week and sleep in the truck at the end of the day.
I hate it and can't stand being away from home, but its an okay paying career.
+Maxime Eyler lol yes buddy you make bank of trucking. takes less than a year to get your license and you can easily get a job for it after. Pretty solid career path but that's if you're willing to be on the road so often trucking not exactly doing what you feel like
Maxime Eyler you can make 234,000 yearly if your good at it. 1-5 dollars a mile depending on the load. My dad was the owner of 5 companies and it was amazing but sold all of them to just start driving himself.
Flunkerdunk she's fooling us. She doesn't really live in her car or she would become a flight attendant or a truck driver like you said where she can constantly travel. Do you honestly think this gorgeous girl is living in her car??
Niccolò Machiavelli lol she chooses to live In her car I am totally jealous!!!!
Michelle Carbone She also said she was in school. You can't do those jobs when you go to school. But she is really gorgeous.
I don't know for how long you'll continue to live this lifestyle, but it is refreshing to see vlogs about this subject rather than documentaries about hobos. No clue what the feeling is called, but I feel like I can do something about my boring lifestlye. Thank you.
You are blessed because you are so beautiful. I would need to at least do my makeup and tie up my hair because I would look horrid if I wore my hair down without fixing it😂
Rewatching your old videos reminds me of my uni days. Thanks for bringing back good memories. 😊
what would happen if you accidentally crashed your house?(had a car accident)
djttv Then she would have a house accident and be homeless
what if someone steals her car
You mean her house.
zio_otio insurance
how do you know
it's amazing how together you actually are im impressed
You're doing great with the I phone. The music added was fun upbeat, your hair always looks good even messy. LOL. you got this.
Thanks :D appreciate the positivity!
If I had watched your vlogs back in the 1950's and 60's...you would have changed my life!!!! Wow! Kudos to you, my dear. You are a very brave lady. I wonder how old you are in this video. You are also very beautiful and I think that is going to work for you!!!! You're enjoyable to watch. Thank you for sharing!!!
Keep the vids coming 😁👍 car tour & the set up 😎🙌😘

I think it is awesome that Hobo Ahle lives the way she chooses. She is right in that a person who lives this way can save much money. I have done this and know from experience. I don't live in a car but sleep in an SUV instead of paying rent. I have traveled all over the United States and visited many National Parks by choosing this lifestyle. Living in a car , van or SUV is pretty much the same as living in a big truck, as truckers do, or living in an RV as many full time travelers do. Some people are not made to stay in one place all the time. Some people are true adventurers and like freedom rather than being bound to rent, a mortgage or one place. I get that Hobo Ahle is one true adventurer. Go Ahle!
Do you have a good relationship with your parents ?
It amazes me how people fail to comprehend the CHOICE to live in a car. Then see that she has a nice phone and scream fake....
Ty Smith just because she’s living in her car doesn’t mean she can’t afford a phone. iPhone doesn’t cost as much as 2k rent.
Right! Like, it irks me that people keep saying, "if you live in your car, how can you afford... " Like, why is it so hard to understand that she lives in her car because she WANTS TOO not because she's poor?
Some Chick Name AJay yeah, they just jump into conclusions..yada yada yada.. but, basing from her previous vids, she already said that, this way of life was her own choice to begin with.. and we don't even know their family background.. so, it's just a part that most people would not know
I live in a bus and we have a large flat-screen and I have an s9. We just can't handle the weight of debt.
Wouldn't it be cool 2 turn living in a vehicle into a movement? It would also be really cool if there were designated parking areas for people that live in there vehicles so that they would not have to worry about being questioned by law enforcement for vehicle dwelling. I have a van and living in it can be tough at times even with all the basic amenities!
Agreed! Someone actually asked me yesterday what I would do if I was given 7 million dollars.... I had a list of 4 things and the 2nd was to buy land and make it a "free parking for all rv's, van dwellers, car dwellers, and travelers" hahha
Hobo Ahle In today's world it seems so much more plausible with the advent of natural gas, hybrid vehicles, etc. With this being the case, I would install these features at the camping sites and maybe even require that some or all of the vehicles there be these types. So much money would be saved on gas and, less air pollution!
The CEO of Zappos owns a trailer park that he allows tiny house and airstream trailers to stay, and he has alpacas
You have my support! Seeing someone go out and do something is such a good quality for a human being even knowing that it might not or might work out. Good luck Ahle!
this is so different to a lot of other UA-cam videos n I love it. your lifestyle is so lit
opposite definition of lit
I'm 20 years old. Graduated high school almost 3 years ago. And this has been my dream life for the longest time . Buying a VW van and just driving the country.
as someone who needs a bubble and hates uncovered windows this makes me anxious aha
Jemima Wise I was thinking the same thing. I would be way to anxious to sleep because I wouldn't feel safe.
you really inspired me, and for that fact i am not gonna read further comments 'cause you showed what true love and resilience is really.
I'd love to see a video on what food you store in your car.
Will do!
Hi new to your channel.. was just wondering why you're still going to school if you felt it wasn't for you? Also, when you travel for a week each month do you just ditch/skip class and get notes from friends? Both of your work places are cool/flexible?
"Urban camping" I've heard it all now lol
Me too. Takes me 1 hour to even be able to talk to another in the morning. Moving into my van in 30 days. Binging your videos today so I learn and you get paid while at work. Peace
That was really interesting. I hope we can see more videos like that!^^
:) I am definitely gonna try and do some more like this!
Hobo Ahle
Hobo Ahle snapchat? add me sammymin216
totally loving these vids. Just found them. I'm a mobile dweller too. Living out in venice beach and I also attend college at SMC.. people have no idea how cool it is to live this way with modern technology. Its really good to see a girl like you doing these. More people need to learn the possibilities and this is the future for many people in the world its more affordable too
oh and i'm deans list too and alot of it is because I can dedicate more time to studies then paying rent at some overpriced box with running water
What are you saving up money for? Or are you not saving?
Savannah Ferrell I sure hope she's saving. Her life is consumed by school and work it doesn't seem like she has much time to relax or enjoy herself.
Erin B both of u look like the same person
damn you're fucking hot. That is all
Me?
+Savannah Ferrell yup
Thx...I was inspire to take a 1.5 month road trip with my dog all over western states, change my way of thinking and blow my mind and thinking of saying good by to my stationary life to live in a van and woke up in a strange difference places and states every morning...
after watching a few of these videos, I've been wondering what it would be like to live like this. I have 2 dogs though and don't see how it's possible to take a dog with you? You can't leave the dog in the car at any point because there's no air flow and they will easily overheat. It's not like you can take the dog everywhere you go, I don't see how it would work
What do you do with condensation? Surely living in such an enclosed space overnight would make the windows damp with condensation due to things like eating, drinking, damp clothes/shoes and even breathing. I'm not calling you out or anything, I'm just genuinely curious as to how you get around things like condensation and poor weather conditions making all your stuff cold, damp and a bit nasty.
I really appreciate her independent spirit and determination to achieve her dreams.
So like, if the car breaks down are you covered by home owners or car insurance? Legitimately curious.
Neither. Maintenance is not covered by insurance.
you have inspired me to try this . . I have a job that allows me to travel .. I'm in Australia . thanks to you x I'm now going to spend 2 years living in my work van and drive the 25, 000 kms around the coastline of Australia
Where is her family? Do they help/support her?🙁
She has two jobs and attends school. I think she may be doing this just because she feels like it. Not sure. Only found this channel a few minutes before I had to go to work, worked 10 hours, and am just now getting back to it. Found it because, come January 1st, I may start living in my car. No great job loss or other catastrophe. I currently have a place. I'm sitting in my bedroom right now. I work full-time. I just need some time away: no roommates, no family, no nothing, so it is possible she's just doing this for herself. Wasn't the original plan, but I may do it too. Oh, and when I say family, I mean parents and siblings. I'm not ditching a wife and kids or anything like that. lol
Assuming she wants to save the very best of her income.
Trevor Williams lol do you
Journey With LuvHurts No. Not living in my car. Tried it briefly. Showered and used the bathrooms at the gym and work. I have 24 hour access to both. Parked at the gym to sleep. Then the heater in my car blew and it snowed. Got a cigarette lighter heater but it sucked. Rented a place with no lease for now. I'll try to take this vacation again around April.
Also noticed I spent a lot more money sleeping in my car. So easy to go out to eat when you're already behind the wheel constantly passing unfamiliar restaurants. I'll have to work on that before I go again. Toss $500 on rent but spend $300 on food? Not ideal. And a tank of gas, which usually goes for two weeks, was gone in one week.
You can’t fail, sweetie. It’s all a learning experience. Stay fabulous!
What if you got to drop a couple of deuces unexpectedly? Or what if you get the runs? Where you gonna run to? It happens.
zoemayne Go to a place open 24 hours and use the bathroom and hold it until then.
Devon Tillman
zoemayne bucket!
Jonash Mallari I mean when you're out and have terrible diarrhea what do you do shit on yourself? Because i know i haven't never shit on myself out in public while having diarrhea
Jonash Mallari Did it just come out of nowhere and slid out? Did he not try to hold it in. So many questions. Did he try to make it through the bathroom?
You are obviously smart enough to be safe so while I feel like a little kid in love with my first grade crush I feel compelled to say please girl be safe and keep putting out super kool vids. You are awesome
Hey Ahle, how are you preparing for winter around the corner? My jeep doesn't have a heater so I can Imagine its going be a tough winter for you. How do you keep warm?!
I think it's really cool how you're doing what makes you happy! If you're ever in San Diego you should check out the La Jolla cove. You can go swim with the fish there, and there's also a lot of sea lions and seals. One time a sea lion swam under me! It was crazy lol
What happens when you really need to use the restroom? There's not always enough time to drive to a nearby store to use the toilet
All I want to say is you keep doing what you do and keep your head up. Shit gets hard sometimes
does youtube suggest i live in a car?
not really lol
well they suggested this video to me. Do my traveling habits mean I want to be a hobo?
Who are you?
I am a person. Who are you?
i like this feed. quality people here.
You have come a long way Ahle ✨💟 Happy Sunday ✨
hahaha Damn Ahle, you're amazing. I consider myself a minimalist and living in your car is as minimalist as one can get and I wouldn't have any problems doing it myself! I think it's so funny you don't care whether the windows are tinted or not! You should get it tinted at least and maybe a car alarm while you're asleep? I don't know. Great job on the videos! You're a great personality :D
haha in the van I move into I will definitely have some sort of covering cuz the no window tint is a little sketchy sketch lol. but thanks a bunch for the positive vibes!
She is so Honest and a beautiful smile!
How do you have two jobs and school if you are always traveling?.. Unless you do everything online.
@Jane Doe She takes a lot of seasonal jobs. She isn't rich. Why would she work or fake working if she was rich. Many UA-camrs get subscribers by bragging about their wealth.
@@JaredDeinlein ^^^^
thanks for this even after watching this I still don't know how you do this. Its amazing what you do, your amazing. Kudos to your bravery ! mad respect.
plz can you do a tour of your van
In her last vlog, she said she don't expect to be finish with the Van until February. I think it is at a friend's house and she and her friends are fixing it up slowly. She is just living in her Jeep I think it is or some kind of SUV for now.
I'll be posting an update video in about 2 weeks :) It won't be much, I've been waiting to install an extended top on it before building the interior. The top should be happening the week of thanksgiving so then once it's on I shall show you all :D
but yes +Garry Cole is correct. I have it parked at a friends and am taking my time fixing it up while I still live in my Jeep :)
Hobo Ahle just found your channel sweetie and I can't wait to see your van! You can see mine on my little Channel his name is Tank! I I love him! 🐙
As someone that enjoys his alone time i can tell you its definitely not weird that you like to eat alone. I prefer my solitude when i am doing things like this.
Kudos ma'am sub earned
Do you crack a window (windows?) open at night? Or do you just rely on the air in the closed car all night? (That would make me feel stifled & headachy by morning!) Do you have a solution to keep the air in your car fresh?
I crack the windows a tinnnnnyyyy bit, and then I have a battery powered fan :)
Thanks! ❤ I was worried about your air supply!
Hi I’m Tony ! I lived in a Volkswagen camper van years ago then I went to a 20’ classic georgie boy motor home it was much more enjoyable! I quit after a while and settled in Florida
Me going to my car to eat alone because.. I don't know why lol. You live in Cali too! Let's be friends lol 💜💜
I love this girl, she's an inspiration.
HOBO ASH WITH AN IPHONE 6+
Eric Bledsoe 3 Having a good smartphone is just like having a good pair of shoes -- you don't skimp out on quality of life products.
Miguel Angel Medina Rise but Apple products are shit.
Lolli Osbourne Indeed but for people who just use certain apps then why not. the damn thing will be updated beyond 3 years.
Eric Bledsoe 3 my iPhone was a gift so it was free. Her phone could have been a gift or gotten before her current living situation.
Mary Hines she's not homeless she chooses to live like this to travel and what not she's in school and works two jobs gift or not ps she could afford a apartment if she wanted but she rather live the hobo life
Love your reason for doing these vids. It is pretty inspirational seeing a little lady like you doing this... Thanks for sharing your life ;) I appreciate you.
Here in New York you will get arrested for sleeping in lots like this. There are signs that state no overnight parking. This is most likely Cali.
Thats because New York sucks...you have no freedom in that state
Lots are for families who need shelter or beginners, pros find deserted streets simply.
rachael lamothe park on middle/upperclass streets, bushes, nonhouses on sides of you. Keep windows cracked 1-4.5 inches so harder to unlock ur door.. good neighborhoods with minimal cars, youll be fine. Only time some1 tried opening my door I told him off and left. Its generally safe ive never been assulted or ticketed for it. Best advice, act natural and youll be cool. Because for lots of people, a car is home. From caves, to tents, to homes... all can be made shelter, no such thing as homeless unless you never talk to anybody literally lol. Otherwise, best.
SnitchBy Snitch well I sleep in my car and I got pulled over by cops and haven't gotten arrested
@00101 111001 actually it is in Thousand Oaks, CA. She showed the restaurant she works at.
I really respect your independence and creativity. I wish I could do what you do and build a van-home, but can't afford it. Plus, you're beautiful. Van-crush is real.
what you're doing is awesome! save money, get your diploma and travel as much as you can! But yes, please, safety first! not everybody is sweet and nice like you xx lots of love
your positivity is inspiring hobo ahle!
I love how u can live ur life like this. So simplistic but hectic at the same time. Such a natural beauty that doesnt need a lot of maintenance unlike me 😂 im such a high maintenance bish 😂😂
feelin this @ 1:15 !!! im about to hit the road in my suv. great to see these type of vids! good vibes sent your way!
You really should tint your windows!!!!! You're already vulnerable....and even more vulnerable while sleeping. Anyone can walk up to that car see you in there sleeping.....please please be careful sweetheart.
I think it's so funny (coincidental funny) that you pick out your clothes you're going to wear for the next day and put them in the front. That's what I did too when I lived in my truck :)
Thank you so much for putting these videos out here for us to view. I'm 31 and have been travelling on and off, as well as sleeping in my vehicles on and off, since I was 16 year old girl. It's an amazing experience and it sounds like you got the right ideas and are giving things a fair amount of thought before making the choice to do them. Congratulations for living on your terms and not allowing others to dictate how you would like to live your life. Brave AND smart. Women like you are an inspiration to many others :) Life's Good! Do what you like and like what you do!
what do you do in the winter and if your car breaks down?
Southerner you forgot about the earthquake and tsunami and sink hole and the landslides
haha to fucking good xd
Collage degree, works as a grunt worker in hospitality.
Best thing i ever did was quit college!
been ranodomly seeing your videos on my suggestions for 8 months. Watched a few videos and today decided to watch everything :D
You are a bad ass woman. God Bless you. Love your videos.
I love your spirit! You seem to have this awesome aura or energy about you. I'm considering van life with my wife when we get to our retirement age. Love you vids!
Ha ha I 'm number 10,000 subscriber
congrats
Been feeling so depressed lately and your videos have given me hope ❤️
I hope you feel better soon! Life is a constant battle, but hang in there and stay strong 💛
You should tint your car windows, you'll have a little bit more privacy!
Cristian Flores she doesn't even have privacy here on UA-cam 😅
This girl is so lucky she's no maintenance beautiful. Most girls would struggle because the would feel the need to do hair, makeup, etc. Great job. You actually make life seem more vibrant and interesting when you don't just go home and watch tv
