Hope I won't regret this: Does anyone here live in a van? (aussie.zone)

That's the question. I am not very social so I never really talk to other people in their vans, but I get curious about their experience. Here being anonymous seems ok to ask.

I live in one, in case it's not clear. I know there's a lot of people who do the same so maybe there's someone here. Probably not but it's worth a try. There used to be a van dwellers community on reddit, but mostly americans and instagram people.

Sydney is not the worst. The worst one is Byron bay by far. I've never seen a more hostile place. But I certainly hope never to come back to Sydney either. NSW in general is pretty bad, with Queensland much more open to people living in cars.

I don't like doing stuff in the van. I do kind of well too, but the other person has to host. I don't feel well with random people coming in my van. But I know a lot of people are very social and do that. As long as they are quite... Party people destroy van life for everyone and end up making the councils hunt us. I imagine it's what happened in Byron bay.

Diet is an issue... I would still like to know how to fix that other than eating out, which is pretty expensive. I certainly eat better when I have a place to stay.
