VIDEO DESCRIPTION:
Meet Rosa, a resilient and resourceful individual who has embraced the art of living minimally and adventurously in her Honda Element for the past six years. In this enlightening video, Rosa shares her journey from working multiple jobs to making a bold decision to live on the road. She reveals her thought process behind choosing the Honda Element, a car praised for its suitability for compact living, and walks you through the practicalities and challenges of car life.
From her functional cooking setup featuring a Coleman two-burner stove to her unique bed that doubles as a couch, Rosa's ingenuity in maximizing a small space is remarkable. She delves into the clever storage solutions she's employed, including a pantry area she plans to improve, and illustrates how every inch of space in her car has been thoughtfully utilized.
Despite the confines of her car, Rosa highlights the importance of getting outside and exploring, an ethos central to her lifestyle choice. She also shares practical tips for living comfortably in a small space, like her window shades for privacy and her innovative rear hatch release for safety and convenience.
Rosa's story is not just about living in a car; it's about the freedom and self-discovery that come with this lifestyle. She discusses her work journey, from seasonal jobs in national parks to gig work and eventually starting a UKposts channel. Her approach to power needs is refreshingly simple, relying on public spaces for her electricity requirements.
Finally, Rosa offers sage advice to those considering a similar lifestyle. She emphasizes the feasibility of starting with any vehicle and gradually working your way up, if desired. This video isn't just a tour of a tiny home on wheels; it's an invitation to reconsider what you need to live a fulfilling life.
For more insights into Rosa's life on the road and tips on tiny car living, visit her UKposts channel, Life in My Element. Join her as she continues to explore the possibilities and joys of living minimally.

I think it's fantastic. You've broken away from the rat race and created a life and a home that makes you happy. I enjoy that you are showing other young people that less material stuff = more freedom. Freedom = true happiness. I lived in my vehicle more than 10 years ago now. Times have changed, but as long as you have some sort of self defense, you should be good to go. I love it.

@bitty_beastly47 13 днів тому

This isn't breaking away from the rat race. You still need gas, insurance, maintenance, food, water. You can grow a garden when you're traveling, you can store enough water either. This is the bad ending to the rat race. Putting on a happy face and being resigned to it doesn't change that. It's good that she's happy, but this is not a win in any way

@@Venus-gn5oi She probably doesn't have as much stress as people who live in the city. And let's be real here, stress is the cause of most common illnesses. Even a lot of uncommon ones. Also, it doesn't work like that. She isn't in the workforce or the city (mostly), so she's objectively not in the system. Your way of thinking is what's forcing her back in. It's crazy to me how people on the internet do that.

@BumbleGee 2 місяці тому

@@DylonsBBGorlNo it's not just one person's way of thinking. If a poor person wants to live this lifestyle they'll have a hard time. As a matter of fact there are many people who bought into this liftstyle and tried it who are now homeless because its harder than people make it seem. This type of living is not stress free, especially as a woman doing it alone. You need to make sure you take the proper safety precautions, you have places planned to go for the night and money to refuel because you aren't allowed go stay in one place for a long time. You need to worry about constantly being properly supplied without too much or too little. Also many things cause disabilities and illness not just stress. Sadly living like this just isn't a long term option for many people, especially when you don't have much money or you get old enough that you need people taking care of you. Short term it's probably a very freeing experience that shows people an alternate form of living but long term is next to impossible. Bordering on abuse too if you try to bring children into this.

We, your subscribers love you Rosa🧡 You're honest, open, becoming quite the vanlifer, excellent UKpostsr, and sweet as can be✨️ I've been VanLife living for over 23 years and I like being very stealth in mini vans. I keep it very open and simple. I always have my sheer black curtains over my original factory tired windows, so I can see out yet no one at all can see in. Like you said, it's about trying with what you have, and, taking it minimally plus slowly, making adjustments along the way, vanlife is very do-able. I've been wanting to start a yt channel yet I'm not sure anyone would want to see or hear what I have to share. I might go ahead and get a decent tripod and 'not too expensive' 35mm lightweight waterproof camera (maybe a GoPro?) and learn the editing part and just see what happens. Yet, I'm still not sure. There's already so many vloggers out there. There's about 8 that I subscribed to and you are one of them and I love your style Rosa... you are pure sweet and a good "spirit girl!"

I’ve been watching a lot of van and car conversion videos, and this video really gave me a nomad vibe which I didn’t get from the other videos. Usually people are roughing it out or they do recreational car camping or they build fancy motor homes in vans. People roughing it out are nomadic but they have no choice. Those who do recreational car or van camping are just having a holiday. Those living fancy van builds might be nomadic but they’re lugging around a home on wheels. In contrast this girl really gave me a “cowboy” vibe…you know, the Lone Ranger on his horse kind of thing, or people in wagons heading west….real nomadic lifestyle, and it’s by choice. I like it.

You are such a cool car camper, glad I found you on UKposts. I took an aluminum bike trailer, light weight, and secured two large plastic tote containers on it then add 4 hiking poles (2 taped together) making a rickshaw plus added a harness with a basket so I could go hands free when pulling using my hand for other things like taking a drinking or filling my cannabis pipe, hehehe. If I didn't want to throw up my tent or hammock I'd place a tarp between the poles and fix my bedding on that and use the tarp as a cover as well. If traveling by city bus I could stand it up next to my seat and by greyhound remove the poles collapsing them and packing them away. Almost 70 now and don't know if I'll hit the trail again. I do have lots of great memories of hiking and camping and some bad ones as well, like the 2 men that followed me up the trail only to shoot at me for sport. Today I live in my house but I always carry 1 to 3 firearms with me so I can shoot back. Ya. Happy New Year and see ya on the other side.

I did very similar but without the shelf storage. Just a full on platform in the back of my CX-5. Not fastened in at all so it's fully removable and the top surface is carpeted and not attached to the support frame either. Everything is sized to fit into the available space from the seats to the walls so nothing moves around. My friend I was living with said the frame would never last because of how I built it but here we are nearly a decade longer and it's still going almost as strong as then. It would be cool to have some shelving and if I redo it here in the next year or two I've been thinking of a build nearly identical to Rosa's. It's been amazing for road trips across the country to visit family without needing to pay for hotels, camping out at events, and is useful enough that I've only taken it out once when friends visited and I needed more seats. Dogs are at the perfect height to stick snouts out windows and watch the world go bye and I definitely need to get back to using it more. These kinds of builds are awesome but it's crazy to see someone actually living out of one!
