    Girl! I play violin and have a Corolla! I just bought mine and am planning to fulfill my dream by taking a month-long road trip in it and living out of my car. Nothing like the awesomeness you are managing, but you are 100% inspiring and informing me. :)

    To pee, I have a protein shaker bottle. It's seriously best to keep it simple so you don't have accidents. A good bottle with a large opening and a tight lid, maybe a good handle, is gold.

      I have a like hospitals grade container to pee in, it’s an Amazon find and has a wide opening and a handle with a glow in dark lid, but I found out if I pour some pinesol in it? I can go three days and it won’t sink up my micro shelter if I do that.

      @@MicroShelterGuy Yep, it's the bacteria that smells. I add a little alcohol - or even bleach but I wouldn't recommend that because bleach and ammonia should never be mixed and urine can have a lot of ammonia if someone is dehydrated - and there's never any smell.

    I love how homely you make your living space. All the pink and plants look so pretty and you have a very clever and logical way of storing everything. Is your rear seat out or half out? I can't quite tell. I went car camping a couple of weeks ago and took the bum part of the rear seat out and then the back rest part laid pretty much level with the boot area which worked well. Being a 2 door hatchback id imagine it has less room than your car. A 4 door car like yours is definitely better for getting in and out the living area. I enjoyed the tour so thankyou so much for sharing 😊🌻

    • @justrowan
      @justrowan  Рік тому +4

      Thank you Sage 😊 the back seat is half out, which I like because I’m able to sit back there and it makes it easier to get in and out of the car.
      I’d imagine a two door would be tricky to get in and out of but it’s so cool you went car camping! These days I try to keep the mindset of do what I can with what I have until I have what I’m working towards. When you do get your caddy van 🚐 if that’s what you decide to do, it’ll seem so roomy compared to your car and you’ll have the car camping experience to help you out ✨

    You might try upholstery pins to hang your sign to the headliner. They screw in versus a normal straight pin which falls out.

    • @serenityjewel
      @serenityjewel Рік тому

      Your headliner is not meant to hang anything and can not take the weight for long. It's thin and the fabric is glued on. Hanging stuff from there might be cute but you're going to pull it down.

    I wonder would you ever remove the passanger seat for more room? Or would that give away your stealth? It must be tempting.
    The little additions make it more cozy, i wonder if we will see yet another iteration of your setup. Im sure you're not done 😂

    • @justrowan
      @justrowan  Рік тому +6

      I probably won’t remove the passenger seat- at least not at this point. It is about the stealth and also I like to have that seat to use for food while delivery driving. It also makes a separate living area from the driving area and there is something about that I like. But who knows, maybe I’ll remove it someday!
      Yes lol there will most likely be more updates! I’m always arranging and rearranging- it’s something I really enjoy 😊

    Why don’t you remove the seats??? Like all of them ? Like if you own the car outright? If you don’t? Why not get a storage unit and keep all the seats you’ll remove in there til you wanna like sell it and put them back? You’d get more space if you did that but you do you gorgeous ❤
