Car Home TOUR: Living in my 2016 Toyota Corolla

Рік тому

Today I show you how I manage to live out of my tiny car day after day while I spend my time crossing off items on my bucket list. This lifestyle change has allowed me to travel the country affordably at this stage in my life. While it is not always ideal, I do have all the essentials I need to survive day to day and am grateful that my car is still chugging along! I try to stay in the mindset of gratitude for what I do have rather than focusing on what I do not have. If you have any tips for tiny home living, please share. I am new to this lifestyle and could use the help. Thank you all for watching!

I did this for a while (about a year) to save money. I moved into my midsized truck. Used my gym membership to take showers. It was a little easier for me, being a guy. I'm concerned about your safety. I fended off a couple of "animals" trying to break into my truck a few times with a ah'em.. protective device I had. Thank God I never had to actually see if it worked. I could tell a few more stories. Once I transitioned back to a normal living situation, I had a hard time sleeping at first. I was so used to the truck. The other thing to deal with was laundry and keeping my living situation private from my employer. I was afraid it would not look good professionally. I know this post is a little older now. Hope you are doing well and staying safe. God bless you ❤

Wow. I was homeless in high school and into my 20s. I often slept underneath the weatherproof tarps that covered the track and field equipment. Otherwise, I would be sleeping in my 2001 ford escort. Im 6’3’’ so i ended up sleeping vertically as well. I remember my classmates making fun of me as they started pulling into school in the morning and seeing my living situation. I felt like living in your car put you into this forsaken corner of society. Now, just discovering this video, I see someone who is living out of their vehicle is content creating and making an art out of living our of their car. If UKposts was what it was now back in 2005, I would definitely have made it through those years with more smiles and guidance. Thank you for this video.

I was forced to live in a 2002 Yukon XL Denali, I called it my "Hotel on wheels" since it was so big. Jersey winters were brutal at that time *unlike now*. Spending $100 everytime to fill the tank, just so I can have heat on those really cold nights suck, but I made it thru that time. I also put myself thru Technical school the entire time I was homeless. I say all this to say, if your choices are, sleeping on the streets, or sleeping in a car, make sure your car is big enough for you and all your gear.

We got 360,000miles out of our car.You made an excellent vehicle choice for your adventures 😊. Now we drive a used 2013 Toyota Sienna. We have recently built a bed in the back and look forward to a few adventures of our own. I’m 71 and my husband just retired. Best wishes to you on your journey ❤

@ethane83 Рік тому

You should consider tinting your windows! Legality varies by state but I think it would help to keep the car cool in the heat and allow for more privacy. You have a lot of useful things in the car and only you should be able to see it! You can also buy some more interior space and extra cargo if you get roof racks with a tortoise shell up top Edit: I just saw your solution to the tints which was great. But tints aren't too expensive in case you change your mind

@jemr1865 Рік тому

Agree on the tints only because I think it actually gives away the living situation. If someone is scanning a park lot to break in, those homemade ones would stand out since they dont look useful for driving, only for living in your car.

This is a very good setup! Very similar to mine! I lived out of my tiny Saturn sedan quite comfortably for 4 years at age 60+. I bought 4 sets of black standard window shades/coverings from Walmart for all the windows at night. They pop open and close up quite small. I had black throw blankets and dark colored sheets so everything would look dark and be covered when someone looked into the car during the day. I did add a roof top rack and a rooftop box for more storage, a kayak and my bicycle. It really was my mini-RV!!! Good job sharing budget and compact vehicle living!

I found your channel tonight. Congratulations on living the life you want! It's a gift from God that should never be taken for granted. When I was a kid, I was raised by my grandma, and me & her went all over Tennessee, Indiana, Kentucky, and Ohio, going to various antique malls. I've often said when I retire, if God forbid my wife passes away before me, I'd like to travel again, but next time, not only going to antique malls and flea markets, but also hiking in the wild. Just today, my family and I got back from the Smoky Mountains in east Tennessee, and while I'm not a fan of cold weather, it was a good trip. While there, we got to see a wild black bear. If you've never been to the Smoky Mountains, you should go. It has a lot of beautiful scenery with lots of trails, creeks, streams, and small waterfalls. Just make sure your brakes are in good shape! Btw, I just subscribed to your channel.

@toshawhatareyoudoing6410 Рік тому

Nice no-build set up. I particularly liked the two organizers you use for clothes and miscellaneous things. I think I'll borrow that idea from you as I have been living out of my Dodge Grand Caravan for almost two years and I like for things to not only be organized but easy to get to whether inside or outside of the vehicle. And on a personal note, I love the fact that you carry your Bible with you. Although I do love music, right now I'm really into audio books. So my suggestion would be Jane Eyre (great for a really long drive) or any of the Jane Austen books, if you're into that kind of thing.

You brought back memories of when I was in college. I removed the vertical part of the back seat of a rusty beat up 4 door 1967 Nova and removed the braces that ran vertically. This opened up the space into the trunk. I was able to put in a full size mattress into the back seat. This was my sleeping quarters. I lived in it for 2 years while attending college. I was able to use the gym at the college and shower there. My college parking pass was as good as gold. I blacked out my windows in the back and seldom drove the vehicle more than to occasionally move it to avoid suspicion.

Also a roof rack would be ideal to help when you leave your water heating baggie on the roof. Otherwise, awesome stealthy set-up for living in a car. Love! Love! Love! The bed situation where you removed the back seat backrest and utilize the trunk so didn’t have to mess with the passenger seat and have two useful front seats which makes the car blend in.

I'm sure I offset all of that though because I'm a weight lifter and I keep myself in great shape. If you didn't exercise and were very sedentary I can see how that would be a problem

Do cops ever knock on the window when you’re sleeping or do you use campsites only?

@nomaderic Рік тому

@Heather Storm no I don't think I've ever paid somewhere to sleep. Sleeping isn't as hard as people make it out to be. Find a spot where you blend in, don't draw attention, and go to sleep. Wake up when the sun is about to come up and leave. It's really that simple. In the hundreds of different places I've slept in my car I've only gotten told I had to leave twice.

Ive lived in a Prius 2009 for a little over a year, I’m moving into a Corolla so I will have to be creative and figure out my layout all over again. This definitely helps! Thank you

Girl...hats off to u seriously. 1st of all I never imagined that one could use a sedan as a camper and 2nd of all its mindblowing to see how many things u have tucked inside this car successfully. Its loaded with amazing ideas and hacks. Thanks for uoading this.Way to go..Happy camping🥰

@dianeschmiane Рік тому

Interesting setup, thanks for sharing! We've done a lot of things similarly, but there are some differences as well. Stacking two of those Amazon car baskets in the back seat is a good idea for really maximizing storage back there. And I love that note from your grandmother, happy adventuring! 😍

If you’re looking to save space I’d really recommend looking into solid shampoo and conditioner, the little bars are way easier to store. Also the brand I use ethique also has dishwashing and laundry bars which are great for camping and are way easier to travel with imo. I hope you’re staying safe and having a happy new year!

So nice to see a young woman in touch with herself and nature. Depending on your location it's always good to have bear spray, also pepper spray is a must! You may have mentioned this, and I missed it. As a young man I lived with 4 other people in Yosemite National Park for approx. 2 years, we all had our own tents. We had the time of our lives! Best of luck to you on your adventure. Stay Safe!

I am from Germany and I lived half a year in a Toyota Avensis Sedan, which has somewhat more space, but I can relate very well. It's certainly uncomfortable, but it is also comfortable to be able to reach and grab every single thing you posses with your feet being at the same place (as I could...). I am really happy to see like-minded people!

Hey Angie! New to your channel. Something we learned from using a van as a camper. In weather in the +30'c when the heat is unbearable. We found that screen netting for storm doors. If done correctly can be secured to the windows to allow air flow but not the bugs as well allowing the window to open and shut without wreaking the screen. If I remember correctly we used the back and front door to wedge it tight to the van. Maybe some magnetics could produce a more easy to remove alternative. Hopefully this helps !
