> That's the first big strike against vanlife for me. In the US there's no cheap and reliable way to park and sleep without being harassed by police.
The US is large. There are tons of places you can park without issue. BLM land, for example, is explicitly available for anyone to use. Most cities don't have anti vehicle dwelling laws. All you have to do is go somewhere that doesn't care.
> The second is illness: I ate some bad chicken earlier this year and was violently ill, projectile liquid from both ends ill, for three whole days. It was miserable but bearable because I had an apartment with a bed and a bathroom. I can't imagine what it would have been like in a van.
OP has an RV with a bathroom. It'd be much like your apt but with less distance to travel between the toilet and your bed.
