This is nuts. People living in Versas for months and years on end. Been watching a bunch of these videos now. It's strangely interesting to see what people go though to make it work.

That was fucking depressing. Imagine moving closer to someone who didn't want you to move in with them.

Good lord. Once he got to the part where he talks about how he sleeps, I felt extremely claustrophobic.

I am kinda claustrophobic too and I can't imagine sleeping like that. I actually thought it would be better to sleep under the shelving and seats he made (where he keeps the adidas bag). With your head facing the trunk, your body is under all that stuff but your head and shoulders would be exposed. If I built one of these I would probably do that.

I just could not sleep with the "ceiling" being a few inches from my face.

People will do anything to justify living in California and the perceived "prestige" that comes with it.

Alright, this is a lot better. Still a depressing lifestyle for me, but more power to him.

that's pretty sweet imo. I mean, it's wacky that he decided to live that way in a damn VERSA, but the creativity is pretty awesome. the most depressing part of the video is that he listens to jack johnson

They have those. They are called tiny home villages. You sign up and they give you a key to a house the size of a large shed. Inside is two beds, a mini-safe, lights, desk, drawers, and heating/cooling. The bathroom and laundry is communal.

In the old days, you could just stay at the YMCA.

I can share a bathroom with family sure, but if you are asking if I ever shared a bathroom with a roommate, or had a communal bathroom or something, no I never have.
