Legit, these days that's just waterfront #VanLife, y'know?

What do you do about an address? How do you keep your license and van registration?

In my country the national postal service offers locked PO boxes for a very small fee, and it's fairly normal for even people who have a street address to use them to receive mail, so you could probably just do that. That said, I'm not personally partial to the "Van Life" so I haven't thought about it very deeply.

That’s a good point. I don’t believe you need a physical address to purchase a PO Box in the US either.

Getting your driver's licence can be a hassle though

There's plenty of Boomers and Gen X thinking the same thing.
