I was literally surprised when one of my friends told me that there are many people that live their lives in vans. This trend is commonly known as Vanabode, is not concentrated in a single part of the world but is spread all over the globe. Isn’t it shocking? These people live in vans not because they have failed in their lives but do so willingly and are pretty happy in doing so.
My friend told me about a person named Jason Odom, who has spent his entire life on road, living in a van. He did not live in the traditional RV or trailers rather his approach was slightly different. He used a nondescript van that could blend almost anywhere. In this van he along with his wife spent many years on the road, living anywhere they felt like. Doing this they nearly explored the entire country.
To describe his different lifestyle, Jason has also written a book. In his book he has explained common questions that people ask him related to his experiences of living in a van. His book titled, “Vanabode – Happily Camp, Travel and Live Forever on $20 a day”, is a 113 pager self published book that covers topics tips and techniques using which you can make most of your stay in van. Topics that are covered in the book include vehicle choice and outfitting, safety and security, parking and camping considerations in various area types, saving money and budget breakdowns.
Since my friend was so fascinated by the concept of living in van, he used to drop regular queries to Jason and once Jason released this book, he sent a copy of it to my friend since he knew that my friend would appreciate it.
In crux, I would say that Vanabode is all about living a fun filled life, different from our normal lives wherein we spend money in trying to buy fun for life. People who do live in vans are not homeless; rather they have a home where ever they park their van. They spend less and have more freedom much different from the average person who works long hours a week just to try and keep up with their mortgage and payments.
If you are looking in for some adventure in your life then Vanabode is probably the solution. When you do live like this you would soon realize that people living in a van near a river or under the hill lead and live life better than the rest of us. Just try out and I am sure you would feel the difference in your life.
