Grace, love your minimalistic spirit. Think about extending the outdoor space around your 4Runner either w/ an awning(one that you could add to later if wanted) or a trailer hitch hammock. You won't regret!! Stay safe.
I have made a sleeping platform just for the 60% side of my Jeep and I can sit up right on it (mostly) with my feet on the passenger seat (or the floor below for leggings) and it makes getting dressed not too bad. I do have to keep the passenger seat pretty clear though as that is also how I get in and out of the sleeping setup. It’s always a tight fit and I’m not a small person lol
Get an electric blanket. I use a foldable toilet, idk how you do it lol. For washing my face and brushing teeth in the morning I use a lil water bottle sprayer and a foldable bucket. I got a trash can the size of a cup its about 20oz and its for random lil trash, very helpful also a trasharoo. Good luck! Awesome setup, love the vidz.
Hi Grace, great channel. 4:52 Breathlessness after normal activity could be due to anaemia, which in turn could be due to iron deficiency. When the oxygen carrying capacity of red blood cells is reduced, the heart and lungs have to work more to deliver the oxygen that is needed. Athletes are one of the risk groups for iron deficiency, so working out 7 days a week could strangely be making the breathlessness worse. I'm not an expert, just been reading about iron deficiency recently.
Honestly life would be so much easier if you just redid that set up and made your sleeping platform much lower so you could sit up, change clothes, and have a TON more living space if you made a 60/40 split. A 4Runner has got alot of room if you set it up the right way; the way you have it set up now restricts so much of your activities it makes everything really so much more difficult IMO….Downsize your stuff and give yourself some living and breathing space. That can’t be comfortable when the weather gets really hot with no air space up there🤔
I appreciate your ideas, but the reason it is built this way is because I wanted maximum storage. I didn’t want it to be super comfy inside because I knew then I’d spend too much time in the car. I’m living out of a 4Runner, not in a 4Runner. I’ve got plenty of sleeping space. I rarely have to change in the car since I go to the gym every morning. This works for me and stores all my adventure gear! My living space is outside and the local towns, just as I intended. 😃
I am currently working a seasonal job and making a little off of affiliate income! Although, I got my start and was able to focus on my channel 100% because I temporarily lived off my savings from my previous corporate job. Definitely wouldn't recommend as a long term solution, but it's what I did and thankfully I was able to live very cheaply.
Holy cow!!! That's some intense living. There's no way I could get around inside my vehicle like that. 😜 Kudos to you. I don't think I could put my clothes on. I'd have to lay in the back and do it. 😜 You know how many people would give up just based on that alone? 😜😜 And when we meet to make pancakes I'll be the judge of the smell. 😂😂😂
@@NoPerfectPlan Try one pair (assuming all your wool socks are from the same brand). If that one pair still fits you, then just start drying all of them!
What I need to do is start doing what you young athletes do like drinking tea and eating protein bars and the like. However as you age you may find yourself eating chips and burgers 😂
I would say it would be a pretty tight squeeze. Sleeping would be fine. I think I’d have to find a different way to navigate around the car/put on clothes. I’ll get one of my tall friends to try this week and let you know!
Are you really living on 4 runner full time. You look too clean for me to believe. I try living in it but I find it hard to get showers everyday some places have no accommodation. I think you should downsize a little and carry what you need at a minimum and create bigger space inside your truck bed to lounge on raining day.
I make a concerted effort to find a gym everywhere I go. I may go two or three days without a shower, but that’s about the longest. My setup has to carry all of my adventure gear, so I’ve already reduced it as much as I can right now. I can’t remember the last time it rained. I have plenty of space for my lifestyle :) it may not work for others, but it works perfect for me.
I just sit in the driver seat or passenger seat and put on pants while sitting down. Legit just put one foot in and then the second one. And pull up while sitting down normal. It honestly shouldn’t be this hard lol
Any other burning questions about living in a 4Runner?!
Cat...or dog?
None yet :) Just can't wait til winter leaves Wyoming so I can get my 4 runner Toyoda!!! butt back out on the road!
I use 50/50 water and distilled vinegar to clean food dishes and containers
She should put it in a squirt bottle
your ganna be a big star when the algarythems kick in
A jet boil heats up water in less than 2mins and has a coffee press built in. I lived in my truck at work for about 4yrs.
I couldn’t do that sleeping setup. I need more room. But whatever works for you!
Grace, love your minimalistic spirit. Think about extending the outdoor space around your 4Runner either w/ an awning(one that you could add to later if wanted) or a trailer hitch hammock. You won't regret!! Stay safe.
A hitch hammock sounds like something I could get on board with. Thank you!
How do you typically get your hands clean to put contacts in ?
Grace you rock!!! I love the outdoors as well!! I have camped in my tent in 29 degree weather!! I think your amazing!!!
My go to is green tea plus peach.

I use the Talenti jars for a different purpose. 😅
Awesome set up! Thanks for sharing! Have a nice day!
Thanks for watching!
This video is fun to watch. Glad you had some fun too! Blessings 💐
Thank you!!
If you plan on cold-weather camping in the forerunner get you a portable diesel heater we slept at -8!! we were so comfortable

I did a build similar to this me and my girlfriend travel around I’m 6’2 she’s 5 foot and we still have enough room it’s still doable
Great video keep it up
Thank you for the support!

Great vid as always!! :)
That amazing. Merry Christmas, by the way
Love you 💗

your setup seems pretty comfy for just yourself haha :)
Do a rooftop conversion
I could not sleep like that so close to the car ceiling. Can you not lower the bed ?
Its like a Cat scan machine Lol.. rooftop tent you have now is nice but myself would feel safer in the vehicle
How much to start van life
I told some of my subscribers to check your channel and they all said … I’m already subscribed 😂
Thanks for recommending me to them regardless 😊
J 'aimerais vivre comme ça. Bon courage.
Yes how do you make money !!! Not in a "how much" but how are you sustaining yourself while living in a car? Always interesting!

That's smart to pay attention. I'm the same. 🤘
Oatmeal!!!!! ❤️
Is that a Garmin watch?
Yes. Out living life!!! 🤘😎
Another fun video!!!🤘✌️🖖🤓😎😜
you have a really nice voice
Just found your channel, subbed. Hope you make it to Alaska..I think you would do very well here.
I thought I was the only person that would cook a mountain house with a Soto stove while driving down the mountain hahaha 😅
I throw my wool socks in the dryer 😱
Keep livin life!
Me too. Are we not supposed to???
No way?!! I’m googling this right now. This could be a massive help 🤣 I had in my head that it shrunk them!
@@NoPerfectPlan Try one pair (assuming all your wool socks are from the same brand). If that one pair still fits you, then just start drying all of them!
I live in a house and dry my wool socks. They are a little tight but stretch back out. It’s better to use the low heat setting.
@@NoPerfectPlan I use the medium heat setting, using fabric softeners is the worst thing for wool and polyester!
Cool 😎
"From the top!"
Cute routine!
If you are camping and need to put your shorts, open the sunroof for more space
What I need to do is start doing what you young athletes do like drinking tea and eating protein bars and the like. However as you age you may find yourself eating chips and burgers 😂
You need a netted laundry bag / sack.
🌹🌹👍👍
You are indeed a superwoman, with no need for toileting in your SUV.
👍🙋♀
If you were taller, say 5’8 or 5’10, will you still be able to do everything the same way?
I would say it would be a pretty tight squeeze. Sleeping would be fine. I think I’d have to find a different way to navigate around the car/put on clothes. I’ll get one of my tall friends to try this week and let you know!
I'm 5'8. I moved around my Toyota Yaris the same way and I just sat down in the driver or passenger seat and got dressed.
So there is a full moon out the driver's window every morning ?
Just found you, love your videos! But I have to say it… You look so much like Malin Akerman! ok that’s all lol.
Why don't you stick your head out the sunroof to put pants on silly 😅
I'm the leader of the movement. I turned Wolf Cayote Bird... Into human body beings? Magic... Come .
At least it doesn’t smell like farts!
You are going to have good stories to tell when you are old and a silver fox.

I tried that method and it didn’t work for me😅 every person has their own method that works for them. Glad you found yours!
@@NoPerfectPlan lol well at least you found one that works.
Honey, just open your sunroof and then you can stand straight up to put your clothes on. :-)
Trust fund baby!
Thanks for the good chuckle when I saw that you commented this on both my channels 🤣
Ca va?
Admire you and the way that you are living in the car.take care cute
Your hair is so beautiful. I would love to meet you on the road sometime and take you out to lunch or something.
No !!! No !!! No !!! Can't sleep in that . Give me a tent.
Don't swallow the toothpaste ! It's not good for you !lol
I see what you're doing, and I agree with you 100%. But I don't see your point.
I always spit my toothpaste on the ground at my door, rain washes it away and it's not harming the environment really. No guilt!
