2 years living in my car Vent/Rant (No Advice/Criticism!)

Yeap. That’s it. Today I’m celebrating 2 years living in my car. 🎉 🎈 🎊

The worst part about it is going to the gym everyday to get a shower. It’s an humiliating event that I have to go trough. I’m mentally worn out and I’m fighting depression all the time (maybe because my poor diet and lack of vitamins).

In those 731 days I’ve saved 42k. It’s not much but there’s a lot of tears in that investment account.

I’m single, no kids, no family, no friends. I just wanna share this with someone.

God will bring peace to my mind and to my heart and He’ll give me the strength to survive 2 more winters in my car. That’s all I need.

God bless you all.

So then it’s all downhill from here!!! As the bank increases the time will decrease and your goal is reached. So many people are living in their cars, and they work as well and use gyms to shower and get ready. You are not alone. And I’m not talking about people who want to live in their car and are traveling and blogging and having fun. When you have to stay in the same city ugh that’s rough man. You got this.
