Jessica Rost, a 55-year-old artist, has embraced a nomadic lifestyle, residing in a handmade bender tent in the Cheshire countryside. Her unique home features solar power, a gas cooker, carpeted floors, and even a bath on wheels. She keeps her monthly expenses to around £300 by growing her own food.
A mother-of-two who decided to adopt a nomadic lifestyle now resides in a handmade tent in the countryside, complete with solar power, homegrown food and monthly expenses of just £300.
In 2019, Jessica put traditional house living to one side and first started living nomadically full-time in her van. “I took to it very easily, because I’ve always lived an outdoor life,” she said. “It’s made of hazel poles bent into a dome shape, it’s got five windows, a door, a small boot room, a gas cooker, a good, strong ground sheet, a couple of layers of carpet, lots of insulation, and some tarpaulin over the top,” Jessica explained. “Outside, I can see lots of hedgerows, a walnut tree, and a little fire pit.”
However, living in a tent full-time means she often encounters unexpected visitors – it is usually home to spiders, shrews, slugs and toads.
