Living Adjustments

We are still deciding what route to take as far as the rusty floor holes go. 

Of course, we want the repair to be done well, to avoid later issues down the road. 

Only after the floor rust is under control, 

can we start adding layers of 

insulation, vapor reduction panel, and sound absorbing panel to the interior.

So for now, I am giving you a window 

into how the thought of living in a van 

has already began to transform our lifestyles.

Tom and I had been brainstorming and toying with the idea of tiny living. 

We both see great value 

in simple living and minimalism as far as material possessions go. 

Now that we have a van space with realistic measurements of storage space, 

we have really started the refining process of our possessions.

I don't have much, but when I look at the van

I still think there is so much more that I could get rid of.

I've managed to shrink my entire wardrobe into this little set up pictured below.

It includes all underwear, outerwear, tops, bottoms, both warm and lite.

Also included is by BJJ bag and a bag for dirty clothes.

Plus, the cat, who insists on photo bombing as much as possible.

This is everything in the "packed-up" phase.

Here's how I've narrowed down everyday clothing.

Tops in the top bin.

Bottoms in the middle bin.

Underwear/Swimsuits in bottom bin.

At some point, I think it would feel good to layout all my possessions.

Take a little inventory to see exactly just what I need.

Will post an update photo of that whenever I do it :D

Stay tuned for more happenings with our

SUPER AWESOME VAN PLAN.
