    Well I'm not a software engineer but I'm glad to be reminded smart people live in their car too right? Ugh this life is getting old

      Especially seeing how far he's come so far, wonder how his time at Columbia is going?

    it's an insult to call yourself "homeless" smh. You have a nice car, can get gas, and you're an engineer who live in a car by choice.

      hmmm. This is a tough one. homeless people dont live on streets out of choice. He doesn't live in a house, he is a software engineer and has a job. We must conclusively ascertain whether he lives in a car because he really can't afford house or whether he thinks it's cool.

    Do you have any advise on keeping people from seeing light in the car at night? The social stigmas against car camping are pretty high. I'd like to not get caught because people and even police will harass car campers.
    So how do people block up the windows? Is there some kind of kit to do it yourself? It would seem it'd have to be good enough to not let light be seen from nearby on the outside at night.
    Thank you.

      I agree, it shoudlnt be taboo. I think many make their own using reflectix from a hardware store.
      If cops dont wake you sleeping in your apartment, why would they do it to people forced to sleep in their car?

    I love this new trend of leaving in your car/van life ... the "homeless life" looks great. I would call your life the" Smart homeless life"...

    At 3:45 when he said "most beautiful place in all of North America" I immediately thought "ok let's see how this compares to Lake Louise" and then he said "Lake Louise".

    Im a software engineer too and this is something i want to do. My biggest concern is making sure i have reliable internet during the 9-5. Do you ever have problems with this? Do you always try to go to coffee shops or do you work off a phone hotspot sometimes too? Any tips, tricks, or products to buy to help with this??

    Thanks Toemas. I ran a free google map based webpage with a simple form. I'm trying to put together safe and unsafe places to car living. If you have a free 1 or 2 minutes to add a couple of spots, I and the nomad community would be very grateful to you!

      Safe parking spaces are truckstops which have all amenities a person would need(mostly all of them) along along with casinos and rest stops/areas. You will never be bothered at those places because people are expected to be there.

    What are you doing now? Why you sleep at your car? It’s super hot now. You’re try something challenging yourself or try something new? And also, I thought it’s your third year of university, right? You already find a job now? Maybe just I forgot you already finished your four years of bachelor degree.

    @realmaddyson Před měsícem

    The true daylife of software engineer is not including 3 meetings and strange hackathon with awards. Seriously, you are working first year? The true software development includes one daily meeting (10-15 minutes) and probably +1 on the week (retro\demo or something like that). And hard work all rest of the day. Fixing bugs on calls, really? Did you hear about version control systems? Chats? I guess you are tipically zoomer who wanna be a software developer because of hype\money\macbook etc.
