  • Hello! I'm an adventure / travel photographer and I've been living in a truck / SUV camper since July of 2018. I made this lifestyle change so I could always be outdoors and so I could camp / hike / explore as much as possible. I lived in a 2000 Toyota 4Runner at first, and now I reside in my newer, larger tiny house... a 2005 Toyota Sequoia. Let me know if you had any questions below! Thanks for watching.

      I have to agree. I’m a medic. I come in contact with a lot of homeless, and even though I like Bob Wells channel, it was hard for me to deal with the ones around here. Pretty sure they’re just homeless drug addicts. On that note I’ve been converting my Suburban off and on for years because I like to be mobile when I hunt. I think I finally figured out the configuration I want and im now building it out.

    It's funny, initially when you hear that someone "lives in their car," you immediately imagine a horrid situation of a person who is doing it unwillingly, is unkempt and doesn't shower regularly. I'm seeing more and more videos of people who willingly live like this and are having a BLAST exploring this country.

When that wasn't enough, I started to look in to the tiniest of house builds (110sqft or so) and then found my way to van life. From high tops to low tops to minivans. Still, as much as I enjoyed watching and planning out all of those lodgings, it wasn't until i stumbled up on this video that everything felt just right. I was actually in the process of buying a cargo van this week but after watching this video I pulled out. Now looking for something much much smaller. You see, after watching your video, I realized, it's not a small house I'm after, not even a super tiny one. It's a tent i want! A solid one. On wheels. And the life style that goes with it 😍 And as far as selling my stuff goes, I've noticed how ever much I get rid of I still end up only using apx 10% of what I own 😄 So that part doesn't worry me at all. Stuff can always be bought again, if you miss it 😊

    You are very organized, you should provide links to where you get all your containers/pods and your other living essentials ie fridge, solar panels, fan etc.

    Thank you so much for showing us your setup. It’s super well thought out and I live the simple yet incredibly organized vibe. I would absolutely adore a video on building the platform/more details around that. I don’t have any building skills but it looks pretty simple if I had more info. Thanks again!

    You're the most organized van/car/suv dweller that I've seen on CZcams so far. Everything seem so simple yet practical. Would love to see a video about how you started this life, how it's been and do you do it full time?

    I have a 2011 Sequoia road tripped and slept in the back on a queen sized mattress. I bought it for this reason, but you took yours to another level man. I love it and am going to use some of your ideas especially the bed platform that lifts up. When I put all my seats down in the back of my truck it's not level across. The seats directly behind the driver and passenger our little higher than the middle and back row seats when they're down. Which makes the mattress uneven and sleeping uncomfortable

    • @NathanielWise

    Very nice video, love the set up.
    Stove recommendation: Jetboil Genesis Basecamp System Camp Stove
    I got it last October and absolutely love it. 2 burner stove and uses the same propane cans you currently use.
    It has great simmer controls. It’s a little pricey but you get what you pay for.
    It’s very compact as well.

    Love the fact that you can take everything out easily and have a regular car again! I’m a college student with interest in having a car that can function for living and as just a regular vehicle. Totally going to show this to my dad!! Maybe have a new building project on our hands....
