-====== Living out of the van ======
-There are two main philosophies to vandwelling:
-  * **living //out// of the van**, as if it were a camping tent one sleeps in
-  * **living //in// the van**, as if it were a tiny apartment
-===== living out of the van =====
-This approach basically spends as little time in the van as possible.   One might sleep, bathe and use the toilet in the van (for privacy) but otherwise life is lived outdoors.  Cooking is outdoors, hobbies are outdoors.
-**Benefits:**
-  * [[electrical:12v:intro|house power systems]] can be minimal since the 'dweller unlikely to be running a bunch of electronics
-  * the van can be low-roof, a [[rv:minicargo_van|mini-cargo]], mommy van, etc.   This can cost less in initial price, maintenance, insurance, and fuel.
-  * the build can be minimal - cot and sleeping bag.
