A man named Harry shares his experience living in a van, highlighting the flexibility and freedom of the van life style. He details his journey from London to a nomadic lifestyle, showcasing the cost-effective setup and the unique experiences he has encountered.
A van-lifer has revealed how he bought a used white Citroen van on Facebook Marketplace and moved in. Harry packed up London life to take advantage of remote-work perks and now he lives and travels in a van. The Isle of Man native was living in Putney, London, when he started working remotely and decided to take the plunge. So he packed his bags, moved home, and bought a Citroen Relay 06 on Facebook Marketplace for £1,600.
Over the course of a year, Harry built the bed and cupboards from scratch but used flatpack furniture for the rest of his home. Harry also installed a gaming PC in his van, this is an internet satellite known as a Starlink, along with solar panels to enable him to work remotely. Drivers brace for major rule change as classic cars face MoTs for the 1st time Harry spends around £1,000 a month - £400 on cash withdrawals, £220 on fuel, £200 on groceries and £180 on internet/subscriptions.

Harry believes people should take advantage of working remotely and that freedom is 'the best thing'. He said: 'I get to go where I want, do what I want, work when I want. So, I think that's rich in itself.' He explained: 'For the first couple of weeks travelling around Europe I didn't really have much contact with people. I don't really do many touristy things, or go to any touristy places, I like to distance myself and go to to places that not many tourists go.' Harry doesn't really plan his routes but uses an app called Park 4 Night to pick a nice spot for the night. The TikToker recalled the night that led him to consider whether van life was for him. During the early hours of the morning, on a stormy night on the Isle of Man, Harry's Starlink flew off the van roof and smashed against the groun
