When I hear people live in a van (or boat, or tiny house) I get very excited, and promptly start quizzing them........which I'm not sure is any better. Van life is one of the things I am currently working towards, and I can't wait. 😁
I plan to go with a compact composting toilet. I have done a lot of research. 😁 I get very enthusiastic and all the different options for different parts of van life.
What surprised me when we sold our house and moved onto the boat was the amount of people who said 'what happens when you get really old and can't manage the boat' as if maintaining a house and garden/climbing stairs was easier than a boat!? It's interesting how narrow some people's view of life can be and I don't mean that in a derogatory way. It's great to open our minds (and hearts) and have an adventure in later life 😎

We get a lot of questions, many based around our ablutions 😂. But almost all are curious and positive, and we’re happy to share our experiences

We have a compost / separating loo. They’re fantastic

We’ve had very similar comments since moving into the van and I think I’d deal with things the same way they would. Great outlook.
