All across the United States there is a rising trend of people quitting their nine-to-fives, moving into cozy tiny homes and vans, eliminating debt, and living freely. I am personally striving to be self-sufficient and would love to live/travel in a van. The days of the large house with a white picket fence, and the lifetime mortgage that goes along with it are becoming a thing of the past. More and more people, especially those from mid twenty-somethings to early thirties who do not want to follow in their parents footsteps; you know, working your life away for the hope of a 401 K payday after retirement. With student loan rates through the roof, and higher taxes every year, who wouldn't want to be part of something different? A different way of living that allows you complete freedom, and the choice to live, and visit anywhere your van can take you. When you arrive, you are home! By getting rid of all the excess, you have room for the important things, a cozy bed, a kitchen, utilities, and most of all freedom.
The tiny house and van movement is growing more everyday. Ikea-style tiny houses are already a big thing, and the internet is filled with other writers, entrepreneurs, and travelers living in cozy vans sharing their success, and passion for this lifestyle. It is not for everyone, but for free spirited people, people who want to be debt-free, and truly live this is definitely the best option. I've always wanted to watch the sunset in the desert, why not do it from the comfort of my own bed?
