Van Dweller
by CRASHAPPY69 on SEPTEMBER 8, 2010 - 3 Comments in I AM OFF GRID AND I WANT OTHERS TO JOIN ME
Im already off grid in my self converted ambulance using leisure batteries for my power — needs generator for back up and solar and multiple input for charging

gas is on propane as butane freezes in the winter

heat is provided by a wood burner cooking by the cooker and washing via local campsites till i finish the shower — all this i did my self and would love to pass on the knowlage to others

its not as hard as you would think to go off grid — give it a try — its addictive.

Been looking to get off grid for the past 18 months and I am now making plans to equip a van and find land/wood to start living on.
Lots of ideas and hopes but these things take time.

Do you have land to live on??
I am only over the border in Scotland.

Hey CRASHAPPY69! Keswick must be a beautiful place to live off-grid. I’m looking into the lifestyle myself and wanting to make moves towards reality as soon as possible. I assume you move from place to place in your ambulance?
