I wrote last year about our plan to homeschool while traveling full-time but we were derailed by a few especially vile people.
Not to worry, it takes more than that to keep us down for long. Despite ending our fundraising campaign early I was able to take the $2,000 we did raise and purchase a {smaller and older} camper for us to renovate and travel in.

The interior makes the potential a little harder to see but...

| The spot where the kitchen should be but clearly isn't. |
Wheeeeee!
So far we've had the pleasure of ripping out all of the random built-ins and painting. Next up is fixing the {very weird and haphazard} wiring job and installing the floors.
Here's what I expect it to look like when I'm done:

| Hardwood floors, compost toilet, hand pump sink built in storage closet and sleeping bunks... |
Nothing too ambitious, eh?
Eventually {once I can afford it} we'll go completely off grid by installing a solar power system. The toilet {compost}, shower {solar camp shower} and sink {convertible hand pump system for plugging in at campgrounds and using stored water when boondocking} should make the transition pretty easy.
And for the naysayers who think living in 60 sq ft is crazy/stupid/IMPOSSIBLE, check out these peeps who've already done it.
And my previous musings on The Benefits of Living Small.
Namaste,
