    So many people who live in their cars are in such good shape. I was worried about gaining weight since I'm about to start living in my car too, but honestly, I'm thinking I might get into better shape.

      Stay away from fast food, because it's simple. Cooking and eating while living in a vehicle can be a pain if you allow it. I'm so lazy I just eat salads, fruits, and raw veggies. It helps you losr a ton of weight, you're going to do great!

      It's really, really easy to gain weight living in your car. It's just mostly thinner people doing vanlife videos. Cooking and cleaning is more challenging and more work in a vehicle so if you don't do it in a house, you're not going to do it in your car/van. Get into healthy habits in your house. Don't eat until stuffed in your house. Don't eat when you're bored or lonely in your house. Be active - hike and walk - in your house. If you're not doing all of that in a house, you're not going to do it in a vehicle.

    First time watching one of your videos, but I really enjoyed it. I am 48, and I am so envious of the freedom and experiences this lifestyle offers. If only I could go back to my twenties. Unfortunately, we did not have cell phones and the internet, so I would not have felt very safe, but I wanted to travel like that and always dreamed of it. You have no idea how much you will treasure this time in your life. Thank you for sharing with us. I subscribed/ followed and look forward to more videos. 🌞🐛🐃🌳🌺

    I'm thinking of doing this, I love photography & I do delivery so I'm waiting on a settlement and going to head NW where the weather is cooler. Not sure how long I can do it & it will be challenging with 2 cats in tow but I've been watching these types of videos and others for awhile now, I think I can handle it. I probably will stay in hotels/motels a little bit here and there but we all know that's not how to really do this! Thanks!

And no way can I give them away I think they'll be fine more than anything I think they just want to be with their owners... Yours probably misses you very much 🥰...

      ​@@lauraslanesvanlifetravels I don't think cats would enjoy it at all or get used to it. The majority of cats wouldn't anyway. Cats get stressed very easily and most of them hate travelling. Dogs on the other hand may be able to cope.

    I was going to reach out to everybody in this situation to try and help you all but the last girl on her video said, and to me this is crazy...she said, "I have a boyfriend.". This stop me cold from helping everybody because what you guys don't understand is when you're in these types of situations...
    "YOU HAVE NOBODY" If you truly had somebody, they would have taken you in and you wouldn't have been living in your car. Not going to take her in and then some guy comes to my room looking for her. If you have a boyfriend that's who you should be with. That make zero sense to me like seeing homeless people with a dog or dogs.... "LIKE WHAT?" I was thinking I'll reach out and get you guys out of your cars and bring you in and then we all pull together to try to save each other.
    But you guys are still claiming people who will leave you to die on the streets, and I don't need that kind of drama coming to my room. I swear I just don't understand people no more. ......GRIM
