      @Bobbie B It isn't about race! Did you even bother to listen to what this young man said? It is about him and other people of color setting an example! When you see nomadic life, it's normally done NOT by people of color and if there's nobody to show them that they can do it too, and how beautiful a life it truly is, alot of them may never see the possibility....How would they know that it is a positive and freeing way of life that they can be a part of if they never saw anybody that looked like them and that goes for any other ethnicity so NOPE absolutely nothing to do with race, but more about showing alot of other black guys that there really is more to life than sticks & bricks, paying rent forever, living outside of your comfort zone, and that the world really can be a wonderful place!!💯💯💯 Nomadic life can bring you a more stress-free existence if you're willing to give it a try......

    Unfortunately, I've seen very few people of colour doing van life. Usually, it is white people, especially white women. It is always a pleasure to see a person of colour breaking free of societal molds like this wonderful young man. I agree that his community needs more great examples like him and laud him for stepping into that role. Indeed, MY community (I'm an elderly white woman) needs to see more great examples like him! We need to open our eyes and hearts better. While he deserves to be respected and accepted simply for being a marvelous and thoughtful human being, I completely understand his statement/s regarding being a man of colour in the van life world. The world needs more people like him. All the best to him.

    On the subject of simplifying things, I enjoy washing the dishes by hand. It's incredible how my mind wanders, some make me laugh out loud, some are reliving fond memories & there's never been anything stressful to spoil the moment.
    Best of all, I've had some solutions to lingering problems just magically reveal themselves.

    We had one of the first box truck conversions back in 1971. It was an Arnold Bread truck. We bought it for $400.00, rebuilt the clutch and converted it to a camper to tour Eastern Canada and Prince Edward Island for the summer. Little did we know to what degree someone like you would take this concept!
    The market is open to you. So many Americans are facing evictions or just overwhelmed with student loans and high rents. We are out of that loop and farming, but I could see myself in a tiny house someday if I needed to down size. You have done an amazing job of form/fit/function to suit your personal lifestyle. I can see you helping others to realize their dream of having a home that is simple and theirs. ~ Diane

Some people like to just blame it on the media and say the media is exaggerating, but if you have friends and family of color, and see and hear what some have been through, you learn how bad it still is.

    I can't put into words how much I like this home. It's loaded with color and art (art is a must in my tiny home as well,) it's off grid, and it's contained spaciousness. I'm so excited to be coming away with the brilliant "work out" idea. I live in a small toy hauler, and the anchors in the floor are perfect for this application. It never occurred to me to use them. Thank you!
    It's great that you're sharing your creativity, and love for this life style, with others by building these beautiful homes for others.

    Well done! I think my favorite thing about the whole truck is that it's unique to you and a different thought process on the layout. It's nice that's it's simple; but you've covered every necessity well.

    Dang, man! That is sweet! I so understand what you were saying about stuff and things taking up mental space, and bogging us down. I wouldn't label myself a minimalist (yet?), but I am finding, the more I get rid of, the better I feel.
    Beautiful build. I hope you continue to enjoy it, and your company prospers.

    Thank you for the review of your box truck. It beautiful. My work partner before I retired was a lovely black lady. We worked together since 2008. I retired 2019 and moved to Utah from Georgia, but my friend and I still stay in touch along with several of her clients. We are cosmetologists. I’m white. I pray that one day color will mean nothing. Only heart. I send you light and blessings.

    This home is great but the man is even better. He is definitely a great example.

    I do not believe I have watched a single van tour that I actually want to listen to what the person has to say until now. Usually they go on and on for an entire hour about all the crap they have in each cupboard. You have some really great pearls of wisdom to bestow upon us. You have an old soul . I wish you the best of luck!🥰

    I am an introvert woman and feel concerned about safety also. This build is lovely and inspiring.

    If only more people understood how much happier a simple life is. Wonderful video. Serious props to you. You have done a great job and are I'm sure a pioneer for a man of color into this way of life. Keep up the inspiration. I'll be rooting for you!!!
