lived in my car for 3 years. I usually kept everything in my trunk so I had more space in the cab. I would mostly sleep in Walmart parking lots where the semi trucks would park. tried to sleep in the front seat once and woke up with my feet and ankles so swollen it was painful. never again. I had the hardest time trying to sleep in a bed after that. I slept better on my couch. after a while I finally ventured back to a bed. I hope I never have to go back to living in my car again but it definitely made me stronger and more appreciative of the minor things people take for granted. good luck to you.
@@ahmedmushtaq3814 You can make window covers with reflectix and a dark fabric facing the outside on all windows. You can also use perforated vinyl on the rear windows and rear winshield and a windshield reflectix in the front. Stay in places like walmart, truck stops, hospitals, hotels and your good to go. Always take precautions
I've been living in my car with my husband and 3 kids for the past few months. Loved seeing this video pop up into my feed. Most people don't understand the daily routine and struggles car dwelling entails. Stat safe out there!
My first time watching another car sleeper. I’ve secretly slept in my truck all winter . Have a job and work 40 hrs a week . No one knows my secret . Thanks for the vid .
MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A METAL HAMMER OR CROWBAR IN THE BACK SEAT WITH/NEAR YOU FOR WHEN YOU SLEEP - IT'S A GREAT (LEGAL!) PROTECTION DEVICE & ALSO SERVES AS A WAY TO QUICKLY BREAK A WINDOW FOR AN EXIT SHOULD YOUR CAR EVER CATCH FIRE!!
@Xen Foes - GOOD POINT!! HAMMER WOULD BE BEST! IF CAR EVER CATCHES FIRE OR SOMEONE HITS IT WHILE SHE'S SLEEPING AND JAMS HER DOORS SHUT, SHE'LL BE GLAD SHE HAD THAT TOOL FOR A QUICK EXIT!
its not fun or safe. I've been there. trying to find a place to sleep without police or sheriffs hassling you and running you off, not being able to cook or heat up food you had to get from the food pantry, having to use baby wipes to clean yourself, or the embarrassment of going into a gas station restroom with a bag of clothes and hygiene gear and coming out with wet hair and different clothes on. asking gas station attendant's to use their microwave to heat up food you brought with you. having to explain your self to police or management of the businesses where your trying to sleep or use their facilities. its not fun at all. you don't run around bragging about it to anyone, let alone making TH-cam channel's. you also don't have brand new, name brand, expensive items laying around your car while your playing around on your expensive phone with your new phone holder. none of this is what you see if someone is honestly HOMELESS. she's choosing/scamming everyone for money and attention. smh. she wouldn't be so perky about it if she didn't have a choice and all her brand name luxuries.
MadRobot_Malfunction I’ve slept in my car for 2 weeks until I found a room for rent I’m a school bus driver and didn’t make enough to rent a 2 bedroom which I needed because I have a son even tried to do efficiency to 1 bedroom but in jersey even that is steep I would have to get another job and that would be just to make ends meet not to save . I sent my son to live with his father until I became stable . Keep in mind his father is in a relationship as well so his survival chance with my son was doable . On my end it’s just me . While living in my car I was very scared at night in the city because of crime . It was no way in shape or form safe but I did it for two weeks . Like this woman I would go to well lit gas stations and truck stops for needs such as hygiene and food and gas . Most times I’d park in the suburbs or outskirts of the city where it was safer I never got a goods night rest tho . I did have my dog with me as well he helped me through most of my nights but I couldn’t help to think that this had to be animal neglect we had everything we needed and he protected me but a car was no place for us both especially in the city and especially at night . Nobody at work knew sometimes I’d sneak into the bus yard and sleep on my schoolbus if they saw me on camera they never said anything to me about it . I like the fact that she is upbeat and has a positive attitude it’s not so bad when you’re by yourself but when you have a child and pet the anxiety and sense of failure you feel as well as just surviving is overwhelming at times .. the struggle doesn’t last forever but it is definitely real and can happen to anyone . Living proof
Tioni Blackert I agree it is not fun but I do believe if you are in a situation for a period of time you have to be able to cope maybe she is documenting for a purpose maybe she has decided to make lemons outta lemonade whatever it is I think it was a great idea . If she works I feel she can put her money to what she wants . It’s not easy to peel layers of yourself to the world and welcoming all forms of judgement from people who may or may not understand I applaud her for her courage
I like how you said "Okay...love you...and JESUS loves you too!" That's great!! I'll watch more later. I lived in my car for 7 months. The worst part was feeling so alone. Not having anywhere to go after work.
This is bringing up so many memories from when I slept in my car. It's nice seeing other people do it and be so open! I didn't feel too bad about it, but anytime I brought it up, people looked at me like I was crazy.
It’s such a shame how judgmental we are as a society, please stop being so closed minded and respect other’s people’s way of living if they’re not even hurting anyone Ps. A) she CAN afford an apartment if she wanted. B) even if she couldn’t, not spending an extra ~$70-$100 on skincare would definitely not be enough to afford housing lol you guys saying stupid stuff like “living in car but buying expensive moisturizer” have no sense of money quantity
actually yes, if you can’t afford an apartment you can’t afford a $70 moisturizer. i’m sorry. yes, $70 won’t get you an apartment, but if you save that money you are now using on ridiculously expensive skincare, you WILL be able to afford an apartment. this isn’t an opinion, this is just facts
i dont like arguing so i wont say more past this, rent is usually biweekly or monthly, those skincare products last WAY longer than that, going a entire year without those products might only pay for one month of rent if at all, I dont assume you to understand, Im going to assume youre someone very young that has never had to fend for themselves, trust me, it is NOT enough
She can afford an apartment, so buying expensive skincare is her prerogative. Beside spending $70 on a skincare product every 3-6 months is definitely not affecting her lifestyle. That averages to around $25 per month. Saving that is definitely not going to affect whether or not she has an apartment if she cannot afford it. She might as well care for herself while she can considering the $25-$30 per month won’t do anything for her. Saying that purchasing drunk elephant skincare products affect whether or not she lives in her car is asinine. 🙄🙄🙄🙄
Hey Katie hope you are doing well! happy new years! haha I just wanted to show some appreciation to your boldness of being exactly who you are, AND all the honesty you keep with telling things exactly how it is and thats amazing! the world needs more people like you Katie and as i was saying in the beginning, you are very much appreciated! thanks for being you. -Jonathan
I would invest in window tint. It gives privacy. I finally got some on my truck cause sometimes I sleep in my truck. And I also hate people watching me eat lol
Your positive attitude in your situation gives new meaning to life. Always stay this way. I don't have to say this because I already know that you are hopeful for a better future. You are one tough lady. Idol for my future young ones.
Ok so quick tip. Tint your Windows!!! It's worth it. My routine is the same, but I don't have to wait until it's dark to go to my sleeping spot. And I usually get work done on my computer, etc.etc. No one knows I'm there. It's amazing!! The only thing is that I do freak people out when i get out my car. Lol. 😆😆
Sisi it's $200 or less to tint all windows front and back. And she probably don't have a car payment since she had the car for 7+ years. Why buy a van?! That's an unnecessary expense.
tinting your car is obviously a better option but it may also draw some attention .. cops or security might pass by and wonder why a tinted car is parked here
Shannon How can you afford to live in a motel but not afford to rent your own apartment or room in a house? The cheapest motels are like $40 a night....
newthrash1221 Simple. It's called getting evicted and living in an expensive town. I get paid every week, and it's nearly impossible to find apartments affordable for one person.. I had a roommate but they bailed on me.
Hospitals are good places to sleep. If you park near the back where most of the employees park. They usually put their sun visor shield up and you can tell they will be parked there for awhile. Parking in that proximity will keep you safe. It’s good to be in a lot that has some cars but not a lot. And also helps if there are trees and such. But my job has me running to drop off at hospitals and that’s how I know it’s a safe place. I’ve now tried this out at several hospitals. It’s better tho if the hospital has a lot of parking lot.
That moment you realize ...you go to a job to work all day to have enough money to pay rent /bills to have a place to live why your never there because you work all day to pay bills/rent to have a place your never at .....this does not make sense . Living in a car/van /camper/motorhome is getting to be the norm . Greed and high rent has pushed most into this way of living.KUDOS to anyone who dares to live this way .
🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 I lived in my car w my son 7 at the time for almost a year. Not kidding. What was worse there werent any homeless shelters available due to the Hurricane Katrina aftermath. They were sending people all over. We lived in walmart parking lots. library was our 2nd home. We washed up brush teeth etc in the gas stations . So many people wondered hnth I did it. I know bout everything about surviving in the car. 🚕 What was worse i have diabetes and complications w it. Plus anxiety and ocd. Im def a survivor. I have zero family and friends. And people couldn't believe that i could be in the situation and not be a drug addict or drunk etc. Its simply called NO HELP! Not everyone has someone or family. Its rare but i didnt and still dont. People dont bother u really tho
AtomMom TV I live in Pearl River I survived KATRINA I was so happy my mobile home was still in tact if your still homeless come live with me,I could use a friend,,I have big family we are close I am disabled but I'm weird cause I'm awake with what's happening in this world. God bless
Vonda Berryman Where were u when i needed u then huh lol. Ty that is so sweet but after a yr living in my car i found a place. Im doin ok now. Gettin by as u can on ssi ugh. Again ty tho. More than most people would do
AtomMom TV I wish I knew where you were when you needed me I would have helped no questions asked. Do you know where pearl river Louisiana is ,,I live right on hwy 11 by exit,right by the river. Hoping your ok sorry I wished I was there for you. God bless. If you ever need me I'm at pearl river trailer park by first Baptist church on hwy 11,,I'm trailer lot 5. 😊🤗💛
If she's happy living in her car let a queen be! You save more money that way too and she can afford to treat herself to some luxury things. I'm a new sub and I absolutely love you. Let a queen live her life and be happy ❤️
why do people want to live in a car? I don't understand it. I refuse to live in a car to save money or whatever the reason might be and I can't date anyone who lives in a car. I'm more worthy than that. I'll prefer to live in a motel/hotel before I live in a car.
Briana Willette I'm not closed minded. it's my opinion, my preference, my life style. it's like me saying you are closed minded if you don't eat human if someone offer to eat human flesh. you wouldn't do it because it's not who you are. people wouldn't do things because that's not who they are/up bringing
People in the comments are so rude. They automatically assume that because you are living in a car that it means you cannot afford any other means of shelter. Even if you couldn’t, why is that anyone’s business? I personally find your channel extremely inspiring. I think living in a car (if optional) could have potential to be a cool and interesting experience. It seems like a cost efficient way to travel. Keep doing what you’re doing and please continue to update us on your journey.
I recently started this lifestyle living in my van. The feelings and emotions I'm going throug made me question my sanity. But watching another person's experience making me feel it's pretty normal. Companionship would definitely make a big difference but hey what can you do. I want to be free fro from societies manual script. Free from attachments and burden. Theres no turning back now. I have to see it through
The loneliness is def one of the tougher things about living in a car. Ive been living in mine for 1 1/2 years. But i love not being stressed about the ever soaring rent. Just make sure to get out from time to time where there are people and you wont feel as alone. Take walks outside. Ive learned that staying caged up inside the car vs going outside of your car, even if I'm alone has a huge impact on my sanity. Humans like communication... So if you can, call friends from time to time and talk, laugh, joke around.. You'll feel rejuvinated mentally and emotionally. Also I find that watching funny TH-cam videos helps curb depression enough to keep me going, endorphins and whatnot. Maybe do a live stream on youtube and chat with some of us in similar situations. Its not the best situation, but taking what we can get definitely makes the difference as opposed to just sitting in the car 100% unfulfilled. Hope this helps 👍
@@RandomBros88 i realized on my travels i learned i love to grow cannabis. i currently renting in Florida and started my own indoor garden where now loneliness never even crosses my mind anymore. life has never been this good it feels unfair.
I know it may not seem like it but Katie is living a life of extreme luxury. I used to be a homeless drug addict and everything Katie has in her car is so many steps up than what I had when I was getting loaded.
Samantha Mills I think you are confusing the word "home" with "house" There are many who live in houses who are homeless and those who haven't set foot in a house for many years who have rich and full homes.
Katy I'm moving into my 2018 Jeep Renegade next week! I've gotten a lot of ideas off of TH-cam so I'm excited but, I ordered one of those smoking cases on top of my Jeep for my blankets shoes, pillows and, other crap that I need I'm so excited 😁 it's 5ft long and pretty deep 😉
Much better than working hard your entire life and handing over all your money to all those greedy realtors or property owners at least in the end you'll have something to show for it . Many blessings friend as long as your happy that's all that counts .
RetrO GameBeard it isn't realtors or property owners it's the nature of the system itself. We live in a scam, a pyramid scheme. End the federal reserve and we would be all living in style in no time
Im on board, but boo..You gotta stop spitting toothpaste in the parking lot😅 If you’re using the restroom before you park for the night anyway, why not brush/spit there? Lots of ppl carry a toothbrush to brush after meals or just midday-no one would think anything of it🙂
I feel like I've seen your videos in my recommended before but this is the first one I've clicked on and instantly your personality and down to earth spirit intrigued me. I subscribed and I'm now going to binge your videos to learn more about your lifestyle :)
Marilyn Rose same, I’ve seen them recommended before but this is the first I’ve actually clicked on and w/in seconds I subbed. It’s just so interesting.
I find the best way to sleep in a car is with an airbed on the seat, a duvet pillow and earplugs and possibly a t shirt over the eyes if it's light or there are street lights. This worked even when I had a painful butt swelling/blister injury, although I only had a bin bag for my eyes which got sweaty and I woke up after the first cycle at 8:30am instead of 10:00am which was what I wanted to pick up my friend in the morning. I tried a camping mat on the seat and I didn't have a duvet when I got lost in birmingham and needed to wait for the shops to open again to buy a Sat Nav. I found parking that was unlimited from 7pm to 7am but got insomnia as in 3-4 hours lying there with my eyes closed checking the time every hour, then a dream about some groovy bass lines, then another two hours lying there and a bit more sleep before my alarm went off at 7:30 am just in case I went over parking. This was after only sleeping 6am to 9am the night before due to the night shift. So yeah get an airbed. Also the car got quite cold in the wee hours, and it's didn't help that people were using the dual lane road in droves even at 2-3 o'clock in the morning! I saw some guy on youtube camper-ize his car with a slide out bed. He needed to remove the back seats though.
Yo girl I’m gonna live in my car too very very soon! This was very helpful thank you. I liked the tip of getting ready for bed before arriving at your sleeping spot.
maddybeams why would you live in your car?🤔 its financial circumstances or just that you want to live that adventure. Because if it's the first one, there is help out there. Best luck
Princess Smith hey, thank you for your concern! I just want to live the adventure. I lived in a van for 3 months in 2015 traveling all over the US and it was the happiest I’ve ever been. I’ve been dying to get back to that lifestyle ever since. I just love living on the road. I’ve actually been saving up to be able to do it and have a big emergency fund too just in case. For right now I feel like there is so much I haven’t seen, I’m not ready to settle in one town yet!
Kyle Føster have you done it because of financial reasons? I’ve lived in a converted van by choice and it is my favorite way to live because I’m forced to be outside exploring for most of the day. I also like having a home with me wherever I am
okay perhaps you have already answered this but, why do you keep the tags on to everything. And what made you start living in your car? i would so have done this at a young age to save up to buy a house or start a business.
These type of videos are the future of infomercials. “Real people, not actors” Telling you what brand toothpaste ,mouth wash and skin care “oops , i almost forgot to do my skincare...i like to use bare minerals...” they’re using ..and I’m willing to bet a ton of people just had this video show up on their feed.
I live in my car because I have to, I can't afford a home. You how ever live in your car as a choice, you should let viewers know of this before asking for money on PayPal. It's wrong....
Professional Wrestling Music I guess you didn’t consider it, but she never actually asks anyone for money. The link and info is just posted there. I am really sorry you live in your car, being homeless is terrible and I’ve been there so I sympathize a lot with your situation and how you must feel about it. But please don’t claim someone is asking for something when they aren’t. Even if she was asking for donations, it could be so she has money in an emergency situation where she lost her credit or debit card and needs to pay for something, you never know. I hope your situation changes for the better soon, but it’s no reason to say things that aren’t true. The only time you ever see that information is if you look in the description, I watched several of her videos before this and never clicked it and never felt like she needed help with money. She very obviously wants this life, and never asked in a video I’ve seen at least, for help. Off topic, I hope if you’re able to get some sort of income or money that you can find maybe a roommate type situation or someplace to stay that’s safe until you can secure an income.
If you try to make some friends in the area you’re staying in online, I would try to ask if you could stay there with a low rent or until you can afford somewhere to live, Ive never had to live in a car specifically myself so I don’t know your situation if you have any income or not or how often you have access to Internet etc, but that’s what I would try to do if I was able
I actually don’t think she need to her life style clearly states she isn’t poor 5 step beauty routine fancy suit case Clearly fancy toothpaste and mouth wash Not cheap water
JohnKeen Where do she state that she's poor?! Like do you k ow her personally, or her background?! Have you watched her videos clearly thru to know why she's living in her car?! Why assume?
tailer organ pf is a target for criminal activity. So many car thefts and break in s superdangerous. Wal-Mart is the best. They put cameras everywhere add have an open policy for parking. Pf DOES have a policy of you're homeless or without water that you can shower there for free
hi, your videos are so helpful. i'm going to live out of my dodge magnum... not by choice but due to financial reasons. this is helping me be prepared... thanks and good luck
I'm new to your channel, and I'm really enjoying watching your routine's because I think it's really inspirational and almost empowering to see a single woman not be afraid to live her way.
I just ordered me some of the black toothpaste in peppermint and cinnamon. I love all the products you use, the Portland bee balm is great and I love the coconut wipes you use. Your videos are the bomb!!! Keep em’ coming!!! You be safe on the road
You have a very mesmerising way about you.. Seen a few vids of yours and always watch them from start to finish... Ive had a few vehicles to sleep in but never in something small as a yaris... Your doing great and look Fantastic x
It's the black toothpaste that kept me watching homeless my as.. these products aren't cheap .my Coldgate set me back late fees on Bill's she lucky and she so close to doing zumba I feel fit .cheaper than commercial time $$$$$ lol ha ha ha
Hey Katie, I know this is an old video but I LOVE your car night time routines ❤❤ I would watch a million more of them if you made them. They're so calming to me ❤
This video was recommended for me & i have to say, it was interesting! And as i got more into the video i noticed what a cool personality & vibe you have. You’re awesome. I subscribed! Keep it up :’)
those reflectors to block the sun from heat damage and overheating your car would be perfect for you AND they have these little window blinds for cars that might also suit you for the side windows.. how creative of you to use the tees and buttons to pin though!
Omg I'm not sure how old this video is and omg this made me feel so much better. I was homeless as well and your personality just made my day. I love how positive you are. Now that I'm not homeless and I'm with someone that wasn't ever homeless don't understand what I went through really sucks and don't understand why I dont really socialize. Just watching this really hit my heart and made me realize what I went through in life and made me realized never to judge a book by it's cover.
Life would be so much better if we didn't need cars, the insurance, maintenance, gas, accidents, parking, the list of hassles is long. Hillary Clinton wouldn't be wrecking the country like Trump is now would she? See the gas prices? Just the tip, next your internet will be taken away. It's like some people forgot the recession Bush and Republicans put us in the last time forcing people to live in their cars.
Curious Nomad Get your liberal ass out of here. How tf is Trump wrecking the country? Lol he’s been president for close to 2 years now, and this country is doing fine. Hilary’s lying ass smh
Curious Nomad Bitch STFU Trump is doing great I support Trump glad he's building the wall to keep THOSE DRUG SMUGGLING MEXICANS AND FOREIGNERS OUT OUR COUNTRY our country is fine Trump doing WAYYYY BETTER THAN Obama he didn't do shit
How does she keep warm? It get cold in some areas . I’m in Long Beach California and after leaving a Xmas party I couldn’t drive so I passed out in my car and woke up at 3 am freezing my ass off! I used the car heater but I found out I had to start it every 30 to An hour to stay comfortable. And my temperature gage said it was 45 deg I’m sure it gets way colder in other areas . 🤔
Steven Pereira I had done exactly the same and must admit back in the mid to late 90s i had done pretty much the same. For some strange reason i was far more content then than i was and am in bricks and mortar here in s.e. eng uk
Right I mean I was homeless living out motel to motel almost being under bridge every week, not once did I think about filming my life this has to be fake real people in the struggle are to focused on getting out the struggle not filming it, its humiliating why would anyone make sure they film there life, no you will be to focused on your next meal If you are going to sleep warm or cold it's to many personal concerns to go live unless this is the new thing smh
No disrespect if this is a lifestyle choice but i admire you so much for this video. Being homeless is so hard and its amazing that youre helping people make it easier. So inspired. And your attitude is on totally point. Best of luck you are amazing.
Renting is a total waste of money! You get none of that $ back. Rent prices as well as utilities are constantly going up the past few yrs. Having money saved and financial freedom feels good. What guy doesn't like a low maintenance girl. 👍🏻
I've also been living in my car for a few months. Tbh it's not as hard to adjust as I initially expected. Still can shower, do laundry, go to work, etc. The worst part is feeling vulnerable at night sometimes. No one 'in my life' even knows
I slept in my car for 2 years in Los Angeles. I just recently moved in with my man. Not sure where you are but it is so darn hot and humid and awful to sleep in LA in your car lol. Also noticed towards the end of the video, do you not cover your front windshield??? Id be so nervous sleeping with it uncovered. I also always had to crack my windows a bit because the windows would get foggy and then ppl would know im in my car.
Hi katie, are you still living in your car, i am thinking to start living on my fifth wheel camper any tips and how moving around and going to work at the same time
I was a truck driver for 6 years. Living in a car is notmuch different just less room. So when you see those drivers realize there not just sitting on there ass .they are surviving and living like this like nomads except not as much needing to hide.it is a different way of life.
If you live in your car out of choice, and not necessity (as I'm seeing people state you're doing it because you like to travel), you should state that fact in your description where you're posting your PayPal, etc. It's very misleading.
Con artist,REAL homeless people are NOT buying expensive makeup,toothpaste,and camera holders...they would buy the basics,and save for a place,not ask for donations,SMDH! I know a con when I see one.
Being homeless is a serious issue. I agree. She needs a disclaimer that she's not homeless especially when you accepting donation. Not all people will go through all the videos to see if she's homeless or not.
Darke Deviant fully agree! I lived in my car bc I had no choice! I was in a different state than where I was from and got kicked out. I had no where to do and i worked . I waited tables so sometimes I could afford a cheap hotel room. There was no pay pal I had no phone. Ppl who lie and beg for money make me sick
How do you receive mail while living in car? Don't say PO Box bc a lot of forms require a physical address these days. Can you just meet with a lawyer or accountant and ask if they receive mail for any of their clients? Would that work?
lived in my car for 3 years. I usually kept everything in my trunk so I had more space in the cab. I would mostly sleep in Walmart parking lots where the semi trucks would park. tried to sleep in the front seat once and woke up with my feet and ankles so swollen it was painful. never again. I had the hardest time trying to sleep in a bed after that. I slept better on my couch. after a while I finally ventured back to a bed. I hope I never have to go back to living in my car again but it definitely made me stronger and more appreciative of the minor things people take for granted. good luck to you.
What about the windows in the car? How did you manage this? Wouldn’t it be unsafe? Looking forward to a response. Thanks
@@ahmedmushtaq3814 You can make window covers with reflectix and a dark fabric facing the outside on all windows. You can also use perforated vinyl on the rear windows and rear winshield and a windshield reflectix in the front. Stay in places like walmart, truck stops, hospitals, hotels and your good to go. Always take precautions
Tioni Adkins how/where did you shower?
I sleep better in my front seat than in a bed . I have an apartment now but slept in my truck hundreds of nights.
God Bless You 💚💚💚

@@Efreet17 no I have pickup sleep in front seat . It’s actually nice , cozy and everything’s at reach .
@@injusticeforallmaheu5354 do you still live in your truck or do it every now and then?
MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A METAL HAMMER OR CROWBAR IN THE BACK SEAT WITH/NEAR YOU FOR WHEN YOU SLEEP - IT'S A GREAT (LEGAL!) PROTECTION DEVICE & ALSO SERVES AS A WAY TO QUICKLY BREAK A WINDOW FOR AN EXIT SHOULD YOUR CAR EVER CATCH FIRE!!
Gypsy Magic hammer is better than crowbar, because a crowbar could still be illegal as it may be constituted as a “burglary tool”.
@Xen Foes - GOOD POINT!! HAMMER WOULD BE BEST! IF CAR EVER CATCHES FIRE OR SOMEONE HITS IT WHILE SHE'S SLEEPING AND JAMS HER DOORS SHUT, SHE'LL BE GLAD SHE HAD THAT TOOL FOR A QUICK EXIT!
For some reason the all capitals makes this fucking hilarious
@cermet - ...CERTAINLY GOT YOUR ATTENTION ;)

Please share any of your scary experience as living in a car.
Ppl please thumb up if you also wanna hear.
MadRobot_Malfunction people need the full picture so they don't think it's all fun and safe, I agree
its not fun or safe. I've been there. trying to find a place to sleep without police or sheriffs hassling you and running you off, not being able to cook or heat up food you had to get from the food pantry, having to use baby wipes to clean yourself, or the embarrassment of going into a gas station restroom with a bag of clothes and hygiene gear and coming out with wet hair and different clothes on. asking gas station attendant's to use their microwave to heat up food you brought with you. having to explain your self to police or management of the businesses where your trying to sleep or use their facilities. its not fun at all. you don't run around bragging about it to anyone, let alone making TH-cam channel's. you also don't have brand new, name brand, expensive items laying around your car while your playing around on your expensive phone with your new phone holder. none of this is what you see if someone is honestly HOMELESS. she's choosing/scamming everyone for money and attention. smh. she wouldn't be so perky about it if she didn't have a choice and all her brand name luxuries.
MadRobot_Malfunction I’ve slept in my car for 2 weeks until I found a room for rent I’m a school bus driver and didn’t make enough to rent a 2 bedroom which I needed because I have a son even tried to do efficiency to 1 bedroom but in jersey even that is steep I would have to get another job and that would be just to make ends meet not to save . I sent my son to live with his father until I became stable . Keep in mind his father is in a relationship as well so his survival chance with my son was doable . On my end it’s just me . While living in my car I was very scared at night in the city because of crime . It was no way in shape or form safe but I did it for two weeks . Like this woman I would go to well lit gas stations and truck stops for needs such as hygiene and food and gas . Most times I’d park in the suburbs or outskirts of the city where it was safer I never got a goods night rest tho . I did have my dog with me as well he helped me through most of my nights but I couldn’t help to think that this had to be animal neglect we had everything we needed and he protected me but a car was no place for us both especially in the city and especially at night . Nobody at work knew sometimes I’d sneak into the bus yard and sleep on my schoolbus if they saw me on camera they never said anything to me about it . I like the fact that she is upbeat and has a positive attitude it’s not so bad when you’re by yourself but when you have a child and pet the anxiety and sense of failure you feel as well as just surviving is overwhelming at times .. the struggle doesn’t last forever but it is definitely real and can happen to anyone . Living proof
Tioni Blackert I agree it is not fun but I do believe if you are in a situation for a period of time you have to be able to cope maybe she is documenting for a purpose maybe she has decided to make lemons outta lemonade whatever it is I think it was a great idea . If she works I feel she can put her money to what she wants . It’s not easy to peel layers of yourself to the world and welcoming all forms of judgement from people who may or may not understand I applaud her for her courage
😂**Lemonade outta lemons
I like how you said "Okay...love you...and JESUS loves you too!" That's great!! I'll watch more later. I lived in my car for 7 months. The worst part was feeling so alone. Not having anywhere to go after work.
This is bringing up so many memories from when I slept in my car. It's nice seeing other people do it and be so open! I didn't feel too bad about it, but anytime I brought it up, people looked at me like I was crazy.
It’s such a shame how judgmental we are as a society, please stop being so closed minded and respect other’s people’s way of living if they’re not even hurting anyone
Ps. A) she CAN afford an apartment if she wanted. B) even if she couldn’t, not spending an extra ~$70-$100 on skincare would definitely not be enough to afford housing lol you guys saying stupid stuff like “living in car but buying expensive moisturizer” have no sense of money quantity
actually yes, if you can’t afford an apartment you can’t afford a $70 moisturizer. i’m sorry. yes, $70 won’t get you an apartment, but if you save that money you are now using on ridiculously expensive skincare, you WILL be able to afford an apartment. this isn’t an opinion, this is just facts
Lauren .... but she can afford an apartment
i dont like arguing so i wont say more past this, rent is usually biweekly or monthly, those skincare products last WAY longer than that, going a entire year without those products might only pay for one month of rent if at all, I dont assume you to understand, Im going to assume youre someone very young that has never had to fend for themselves, trust me, it is NOT enough
Don't know where yalls live but rent where I live is usually around $1000-$2000 dollars. . . so yeah not buying products will do absolutely nothing
She can afford an apartment, so buying expensive skincare is her prerogative. Beside spending $70 on a skincare product every 3-6 months is definitely not affecting her lifestyle. That averages to around $25 per month. Saving that is definitely not going to affect whether or not she has an apartment if she cannot afford it. She might as well care for herself while she can considering the $25-$30 per month won’t do anything for her. Saying that purchasing drunk elephant skincare products affect whether or not she lives in her car is asinine. 🙄🙄🙄🙄
Hey Katie hope you are doing well! happy new years! haha I just wanted to show some appreciation to your boldness of being exactly who you are, AND all the honesty you keep with telling things exactly how it is and thats amazing! the world needs more people like you Katie and as i was saying in the beginning, you are very much appreciated! thanks for being you. -Jonathan
I would invest in window tint. It gives privacy. I finally got some on my truck cause sometimes I sleep in my truck. And I also hate people watching me eat lol
Jamie Lee .
i definately should look into this...I'm living out of my car right now too!
Johnny James Jamrock it definitely gives a more secure feeling.
I think tinted windows are illegal in some places
StabletoCity yep, illegal here. But everyone has them. And the shops still do it. It's illegal to have them done up front mostly.
this came up in my recommended and i’m so glad it did, i love your personality and i’m super glad to be subscribed to you now!!
Your positive attitude in your situation gives new meaning to life. Always stay this way. I don't have to say this because I already know that you are hopeful for a better future. You are one tough lady. Idol for my future young ones.
Ok so quick tip. Tint your Windows!!! It's worth it. My routine is the same, but I don't have to wait until it's dark to go to my sleeping spot. And I usually get work done on my computer, etc.etc. No one knows I'm there. It's amazing!! The only thing is that I do freak people out when i get out my car. Lol. 😆😆
Sisi it's $200 or less to tint all windows front and back. And she probably don't have a car payment since she had the car for 7+ years. Why buy a van?! That's an unnecessary expense.
Not sure if she’s still in NY but tinta are illegal here now..so you can get fined for them
michelle smith that's inspiring
tinting your car is obviously a better option but it may also draw some attention .. cops or security might pass by and wonder why a tinted car is parked here
they may also think that if they see tshirts blocking all windows lol
I'm living in a motel. You make me feel like theirs hope and it isn't the end of the world. I'll be okay! WE'LL BE OKAY❤️
Shannon same here! Hang in there
Shannon
How can you afford to live in a motel but not afford to rent your own apartment or room in a house? The cheapest motels are like $40 a night....
newthrash1221 Simple. It's called getting evicted and living in an expensive town. I get paid every week, and it's nearly impossible to find apartments affordable for one person.. I had a roommate but they bailed on me.
Shannon :(
Ron Swanson It's okay Ron. ❤️
Hospitals are good places to sleep. If you park near the back where most of the employees park. They usually put their sun visor shield up and you can tell they will be parked there for awhile. Parking in that proximity will keep you safe. It’s good to be in a lot that has some cars but not a lot. And also helps if there are trees and such. But my job has me running to drop off at hospitals and that’s how I know it’s a safe place. I’ve now tried this out at several hospitals. It’s better tho if the hospital has a lot of parking lot.
That moment you realize ...you go to a job to work all day to have enough money to pay rent /bills to have a place to live why your never there because you work all day to pay bills/rent to have a place your never at .....this does not make sense . Living in a car/van /camper/motorhome is getting to be the norm . Greed and high rent has pushed most into this way of living.KUDOS to anyone who dares to live this way .
Lauren There are lots of places to take showers. They are coin operated. You get a certain amount of time per quarter.
Hippie Heather and if you have a gym membership you can always shower there! :)
+Hippie Heather, I've never seen those. I used to sleep on the road and use my gym membership.
Where are the coin operated showers?
Mia Strong Mostly at truck stops and RV parks.

I lived in my car w my son 7 at the time for almost a year. Not kidding. What was worse there werent any homeless shelters available due to the Hurricane Katrina aftermath. They were sending people all over. We lived in walmart parking lots. library was our 2nd home. We washed up brush teeth etc in the gas stations . So many people wondered hnth I did it. I know bout everything about surviving in the car. 🚕 What was worse i have diabetes and complications w it. Plus anxiety and ocd. Im def a survivor. I have zero family and friends. And people couldn't believe that i could be in the situation and not be a drug addict or drunk etc. Its simply called NO HELP! Not everyone has someone or family. Its rare but i didnt and still dont. People dont bother u really tho
AtomMom TV I live in Pearl River I survived KATRINA I was so happy my mobile home was still in tact if your still homeless come live with me,I could use a friend,,I have big family we are close I am disabled but I'm weird cause I'm awake with what's happening in this world. God bless
Vonda Berryman Where were u when i needed u then huh lol. Ty that is so sweet but after a yr living in my car i found a place. Im doin ok now. Gettin by as u can on ssi ugh. Again ty tho. More than most people would do
AtomMom TV I wish I knew where you were when you needed me I would have helped no questions asked.
Do you know where pearl river Louisiana is ,,I live right on hwy 11 by exit,right by the river.
Hoping your ok sorry I wished I was there for you.
God bless. If you ever need me I'm at pearl river trailer park by first Baptist church on hwy 11,,I'm trailer lot 5.
😊🤗💛
Vonda Berryman never been to Louisiana. And sure thing 👌 ty for bein nice again. Have a gday
AtomMom TV oh i was under impression you were from Louisiana.
Blessings to you and your son.😊🤗❤💛💖
you remind me of fiona gallagher 😍😍
Gabi Fernandez i was thinking the same thing!!
Ahhh same!!
Gabi Fernandez I was hoping I wasn’t the only one who thought that lol
was literallyyyyyy thinking this
Gabi Fernandez omg, i thought i was the only one who thought that!
literally 10 secs into the video and i'm already loving your personality. you earned a new subscriber!!
If she's happy living in her car let a queen be! You save more money that way too and she can afford to treat herself to some luxury things. I'm a new sub and I absolutely love you. Let a queen live her life and be happy ❤️
Briana Willette beautiful comment
why do people want to live in a car? I don't understand it. I refuse to live in a car to save money or whatever the reason might be and I can't date anyone who lives in a car. I'm more worthy than that. I'll prefer to live in a motel/hotel before I live in a car.
SunShine Love you're just close minded
Briana Willette I'm not closed minded. it's my opinion, my preference, my life style. it's like me saying you are closed minded if you don't eat human if someone offer to eat human flesh. you wouldn't do it because it's not who you are. people wouldn't do things because that's not who they are/up bringing
You should tint your windows
Right...? The t-shirts is a bit weird...like obviously someones sleeping inside...
i dont know how i got here but im not mad this is highkey cool as hell
Same.
Nicole Nguyen same
Wtffffff she has a better skin and teeth care routine than me and she lives in her car I’m mad 😂😂
I'Shawn Same lol
Right lol
Hi
LOL
For real 😂
Why is this me when I “move out” 😂
me 😂😂
People in the comments are so rude. They automatically assume that because you are living in a car that it means you cannot afford any other means of shelter. Even if you couldn’t, why is that anyone’s business? I personally find your channel extremely inspiring. I think living in a car (if optional) could have potential to be a cool and interesting experience. It seems like a cost efficient way to travel. Keep doing what you’re doing and please continue to update us on your journey.
Since making this comment I have binged a ton of your videos. I just found you today. I am inspired and intrigued.💛
Its natural to assume that the reason someone is living in their car is because they can’t afford housing.
I bought this car mattress of wish for 25$ and a car pump and it’s such a life saver. It turns your backseat in a 1.5person bed. Love it
No disrespect intended here, but this does not look like a good time. I do love your attitude though.
Casey Dae Drapeaux what do you mean?
Naomi Mard, I mean just what I said. Not sure where you are needing clarification. 😁
Don’t know why this wouldn’t be a good time?
Casey Dae Drapeaux that makes no sense? She’s just giving tips to others
I recently started this lifestyle living in my van. The feelings and emotions I'm going throug made me question my sanity. But watching another person's experience making me feel it's pretty normal. Companionship would definitely make a big difference but hey what can you do. I want to be free fro from societies manual script. Free from attachments and burden. Theres no turning back now. I have to see it through
The loneliness is def one of the tougher things about living in a car. Ive been living in mine for 1 1/2 years. But i love not being stressed about the ever soaring rent. Just make sure to get out from time to time where there are people and you wont feel as alone. Take walks outside. Ive learned that staying caged up inside the car vs going outside of your car, even if I'm alone has a huge impact on my sanity. Humans like communication... So if you can, call friends from time to time and talk, laugh, joke around.. You'll feel rejuvinated mentally and emotionally. Also I find that watching funny TH-cam videos helps curb depression enough to keep me going, endorphins and whatnot. Maybe do a live stream on youtube and chat with some of us in similar situations. Its not the best situation, but taking what we can get definitely makes the difference as opposed to just sitting in the car 100% unfulfilled. Hope this helps 👍
@@RandomBros88 i realized on my travels i learned i love to grow cannabis. i currently renting in Florida and started my own indoor garden where now loneliness never even crosses my mind anymore. life has never been this good it feels unfair.
Do you guys pay for car insurance?
I had no idea you were 32, you look 10 years younger
Yet2b4Sakn I was thinking the same thing.
It’s all that skin care my dude
this is so interesting and she seems so cool and down to earth wow
rebecca interesting sure...cool yeah.... but down to earth? She seems like the most agitated person ever lol
Godspeed, stranger.
sneakysnickersnoopy it will be over soon, it's ok.
Why wouldnt She be down to earth! She lives in her car!!!
basma jalloul You don't have to be rude, they commented something nice, in which you decided to twist.
I know it may not seem like it but Katie is living a life of extreme luxury. I used to be a homeless drug addict and everything Katie has in her car is so many steps up than what I had when I was getting loaded.
I was gonna said that I been homeless before she is been able to purchase a expensive toothpaste!!
Katie you should absolutely get a van so you can have some more space!
I mean, if she wants the space, but she’s been doing this for so long, I would assume she’d have upgraded by now if she wanted to.
or u know.. a real home
Samantha Mills I think you are confusing the word "home" with "house" There are many who live in houses who are homeless and those who haven't set foot in a house for many years who have rich and full homes.
She should get an apartment:)
Abby Rose she doesn't want an apartment. She would if she did want one. She can afford one.
Katy I'm moving into my 2018 Jeep Renegade next week! I've gotten a lot of ideas off of TH-cam so I'm excited but, I ordered one of those smoking cases on top of my Jeep for my blankets shoes, pillows and, other crap that I need I'm so excited 😁 it's 5ft long and pretty deep 😉
Katie, I lived like this for about 6 years. Watching you prepare for the night makes me miss the freedom and adventure of each day.
Literally Fiona from Shameless!!!
Tiny Pixie Fairy yes!!! Thought the same exact thing!
Omg I just said this before I seen your comment 💞💞 great minds think alike
It took me a while to figure out who she looked like! Glad I'm not the only one.
!!!!!!!
Even sounds like her kinda 🙌
This was recommended to me exactly when I needed it. Thank you.
Emma Earl do you live in your car ?
Much better than working hard your entire life and handing over all your money to all those greedy realtors or property owners at least in the end you'll have something to show for it . Many blessings friend as long as your happy that's all that counts .
RetrO GameBeard it isn't realtors or property owners it's the nature of the system itself. We live in a scam, a pyramid scheme. End the federal reserve and we would be all living in style in no time
I am seriously 38 seconds in and I am aboslutly in love with you And your channel haha love you girl!
New subscriber here! 🙋🏽♀️ I seriously subscribed within the first minute. Your personality has me so intrigued.
Eileen Rodriguez Aguirre Same this is the first video I’ve ever watched
Me too. I’m binge watching all of her other videos.
I'm,so glad I watched this video because I'm recently homeless but living in my car
Same. Good luck out there and hope you get back on your feet
@Veronica Moody one homeless guy asked me are u homeless I said - yes , than he saw my van and said - at least u driving 😂😂😂
Omggggg, this is so interesting, i absolutely love your personality! TH-cam finally recommended me something nice!
My boyfriend and have been living in my car too for almost a year now 😑 it's so hard...thanks for posting
I lived in my car for 2.5 years in portland oregon. I eventually found a beuatiful huge house in lower SE.
Z.S.N. Did you say you found a huge house?!
Im on board, but boo..You gotta stop spitting toothpaste in the parking lot😅
If you’re using the restroom before you park for the night anyway, why not brush/spit there? Lots of ppl carry a toothbrush to brush after meals or just midday-no one would think anything of it🙂
yup, they would actually be embarassed because they dont brush their teeth after meals :P
Definitely thats nasty spitting in the parking lot id be annoyed if i got out of my van and realized i was standing in something gross
I have had nasty responses when brushing my teeth in public restrooms at businesses.
I feel the same! But, I bet people would be mean if they saw her doing that in a public restroom. People are weird.
Many places have a “family restroom” where you could go in there alone. My Target has a private-type restroom next to the pharmacy.
I feel like I've seen your videos in my recommended before but this is the first one I've clicked on and instantly your personality and down to earth spirit intrigued me. I subscribed and I'm now going to binge your videos to learn more about your lifestyle :)
Marilyn Rose same, I’ve seen them recommended before but this is the first I’ve actually clicked on and w/in seconds I subbed. It’s just so interesting.
Marilyn Rose it’s Really Not Don’t Do It Trust Me
we have the same name!
Girl: Take makeup off, skincare routine, brush teeth, floss, find safe place, park, move shit around, sleep.
Guy: Brush teeth then sleep
Where do you send your mail / parcels ???
SONNY TURNER maybe she has a P.O. box?
It’s such a free feeling living on wheels. Not homeless more like house less. Car dwellers unite! 💙✌🏻💪🏼✊🏻
I find the best way to sleep in a car is with an airbed on the seat, a duvet pillow and earplugs and possibly a t shirt over the eyes if it's light or there are street lights. This worked even when I had a painful butt swelling/blister injury, although I only had a bin bag for my eyes which got sweaty and I woke up after the first cycle at 8:30am instead of 10:00am which was what I wanted to pick up my friend in the morning. I tried a camping mat on the seat and I didn't have a duvet when I got lost in birmingham and needed to wait for the shops to open again to buy a Sat Nav.
I found parking that was unlimited from 7pm to 7am but got insomnia as in 3-4 hours lying there with my eyes closed checking the time every hour, then a dream about some groovy bass lines, then another two hours lying there and a bit more sleep before my alarm went off at 7:30 am just in case I went over parking.
This was after only sleeping 6am to 9am the night before due to the night shift. So yeah get an airbed. Also the car got quite cold in the wee hours, and it's didn't help that people were using the dual lane road in droves even at 2-3 o'clock in the morning! I saw some guy on youtube camper-ize his car with a slide out bed. He needed to remove the back seats though.
You have the most beautiful skin. 😀
cherry m girl your in Burbank! I swear I saw you there the other day! Omgosh how crazy
cherry m It's very wearable
Brittani McCormick lol... Can I borrow your smile?
cherry m wtf I saw you at Burbank mall
cherry m she does
New sub! 😁
omg this was so interesting girl! The thought of living out of my small car gives me so much anxiety so much kudos to you!
yeah i'm living in my little 94 toyota corolla , sometimes I get like that too
So much kulos to you
I know! You have to crap and pee in a bucket! Kudos for not smearing it all over the steering wheel! And cheers!
Rod kulos
The worst is when your car gets stolen or towed and all your shit is gone and you have no money for the fee's
It’s amazing how fast you talk, awesome video, thx Katy 🙂
Yo girl I’m gonna live in my car too very very soon! This was very helpful thank you. I liked the tip of getting ready for bed before arriving at your sleeping spot.
maddybeams why would you live in your car?🤔 its financial circumstances or just that you want to live that adventure. Because if it's the first one, there is help out there. Best luck
Princess Smith hey, thank you for your concern! I just want to live the adventure. I lived in a van for 3 months in 2015 traveling all over the US and it was the happiest I’ve ever been. I’ve been dying to get back to that lifestyle ever since. I just love living on the road. I’ve actually been saving up to be able to do it and have a big emergency fund too just in case. For right now I feel like there is so much I haven’t seen, I’m not ready to settle in one town yet!
maddybeams I feel you
it’s not fun. at all..
Kyle Føster have you done it because of financial reasons? I’ve lived in a converted van by choice and it is my favorite way to live because I’m forced to be outside exploring for most of the day. I also like having a home with me wherever I am
I love this girls energy. Given her situation (willing or not), it's actually inspiring. Subscribed.
Edit: what about showers 😂
okay perhaps you have already answered this but, why do you keep the tags on to everything. And what made you start living in your car? i would so have done this at a young age to save up to buy a house or start a business.
These type of videos are the future of infomercials. “Real people, not actors” Telling you what brand toothpaste ,mouth wash and skin care “oops , i almost forgot to do my skincare...i like to use bare minerals...” they’re using ..and I’m willing to bet a ton of people just had this video show up on their feed.
She said Jesus loves you. & I love you for saying that 😭💕
I live in my car because I have to, I can't afford a home. You how ever live in your car as a choice, you should let viewers know of this before asking for money on PayPal. It's wrong....
Professional Wrestling Music I guess you didn’t consider it, but she never actually asks anyone for money.
The link and info is just posted there. I am really sorry you live in your car, being homeless is terrible and I’ve been there so I sympathize a lot with your situation and how you must feel about it.
But please don’t claim someone is asking for something when they aren’t. Even if she was asking for donations, it could be so she has money in an emergency situation where she lost her credit or debit card and needs to pay for something, you never know. I hope your situation changes for the better soon, but it’s no reason to say things that aren’t true. The only time you ever see that information is if you look in the description, I watched several of her videos before this and never clicked it and never felt like she needed help with money. She very obviously wants this life, and never asked in a video I’ve seen at least, for help.
Off topic, I hope if you’re able to get some sort of income or money that you can find maybe a roommate type situation or someplace to stay that’s safe until you can secure an income.
If you try to make some friends in the area you’re staying in online, I would try to ask if you could stay there with a low rent or until you can afford somewhere to live, Ive never had to live in a car specifically myself so I don’t know your situation if you have any income or not or how often you have access to Internet etc, but that’s what I would try to do if I was able
Professional Wrestling Music Do you work anywhere?!
I actually don’t think she need to her life style clearly states she isn’t poor 5 step beauty routine fancy suit case
Clearly fancy toothpaste and mouth wash
Not cheap water
JohnKeen Where do she state that she's poor?! Like do you k ow her personally, or her background?! Have you watched her videos clearly thru to know why she's living in her car?! Why assume?
from my experience i liked parking at walmart at night or planet fitness since theyre open 24 hours
tailer organ pf is a target for criminal activity. So many car thefts and break in s superdangerous. Wal-Mart is the best. They put cameras everywhere add have an open policy for parking. Pf DOES have a policy of you're homeless or without water that you can shower there for free
Tailor it isn’t safe I would never allow a lady to be by herself exposed to unsafe conditions I would do something about it
hi, your videos are so helpful. i'm going to live out of my dodge magnum... not by choice but due to financial reasons. this is helping me be prepared... thanks and good luck
That's a good car to live in no? Spacious? Lol funny that now I consider livable in my future car choices just in case 😆😂🤣
I'm new to your channel, and I'm really enjoying watching your routine's because I think it's really inspirational and almost empowering to see a single woman not be afraid to live her way.
I just ordered me some of the black toothpaste in peppermint and cinnamon. I love all the products you use, the Portland bee balm is great and I love the coconut wipes you use. Your videos are the bomb!!! Keep em’ coming!!! You be safe on the road
You have a very mesmerising way about you.. Seen a few vids of yours and always watch them from start to finish... Ive had a few vehicles to sleep in but never in something small as a yaris... Your doing great and look Fantastic x
atinamoon yeah she reminds me of Anne Hathaway
I feel safer in car versus roomates..lol
@Zlatko Toric say whaaaat?
It's the black toothpaste that kept me watching homeless my as.. these products aren't cheap .my Coldgate set me back late fees on Bill's she lucky and she so close to doing zumba I feel fit .cheaper than commercial time $$$$$ lol ha ha ha
Hey Katie, I know this is an old video but I LOVE your car night time routines ❤❤ I would watch a million more of them if you made them. They're so calming to me ❤
She just love this life, she look so, so, happy, like I never see someone
This video was recommended for me & i have to say, it was interesting! And as i got more into the video i noticed what a cool personality & vibe you have. You’re awesome. I subscribed! Keep it up :’)
I am going to live in my car but I have 3 cats. I live somewhere hot. I also go to school and work full time. Any suggestions for keeping them cool?
those reflectors to block the sun from heat damage and overheating your car would be perfect for you AND they have these little window blinds for cars that might also suit you for the side windows.. how creative of you to use the tees and buttons to pin though!
New sub here- all the way from the Philippines! A Jesus- follower like you. Blessings of His best for you always. 😇🙏
Omg I'm not sure how old this video is and omg this made me feel so much better. I was homeless as well and your personality just made my day. I love how positive you are. Now that I'm not homeless and I'm with someone that wasn't ever homeless don't understand what I went through really sucks and don't understand why I dont really socialize. Just watching this really hit my heart and made me realize what I went through in life and made me realized never to judge a book by it's cover.
She's not homeless, she just chooses to live out of her car because she likes to travel
Do you choose to live in your car? Or do u have to ? I'm curious..
Angy D She chooses to because she likes to travel.
With all the expensive tooth and skin care stuff, it’s def not have to... (I’ve had to... you can’t afford coconut water skin care stuff)
Especially Drunk elephant skincare 😜
She making TH-cam money she definitely could be living somewhere else, or is. Idk how she editing and uploading without WiFi.
Maybe she uses the public library. The ones in my town allow you to use the computers up to 2 hours for free.
Life is so much better when one has a car.
Charlie Sanchez Salinas who wouldn’t have a car unless you live in a huge city or something, or your name is Hillary Clinton.
Oh my goodness so many people don't have cars
Out of touch
Life would be so much better if we didn't need cars, the insurance, maintenance, gas, accidents, parking, the list of hassles is long. Hillary Clinton wouldn't be wrecking the country like Trump is now would she? See the gas prices? Just the tip, next your internet will be taken away. It's like some people forgot the recession Bush and Republicans put us in the last time forcing people to live in their cars.
Curious Nomad
Get your liberal ass out of here. How tf is Trump wrecking the country? Lol he’s been president for close to 2 years now, and this country is doing fine. Hilary’s lying ass smh
Curious Nomad Bitch STFU Trump is doing great I support Trump glad he's building the wall to keep THOSE DRUG SMUGGLING MEXICANS AND FOREIGNERS OUT OUR COUNTRY our country is fine Trump doing WAYYYY BETTER THAN Obama he didn't do shit
Rocked this life for awhile and watched your video back in 18’ when I was too, glad u getting good views!
Doesn’t If get stuffy . What do you do to get air circulation ??
Man, i could save SO MUCH money if I did this..
Really. Do you know this kind of life takes you money in food?
Do it...we have to break out of this slave system....the rent and bills will never stop..
How did you go washroom and taken a bath?
You won't save money on chiropractors due to the back problems you will develop in the future from sleeping on a car seat lol
Life is too short too live in a car trust me
How does she keep warm? It get cold in some areas . I’m in Long Beach California and after leaving a Xmas party I couldn’t drive so I passed out in my car and woke up at 3 am freezing my ass off! I used the car heater but I found out I had to start it every 30 to An hour to stay comfortable. And my temperature gage said it was 45 deg I’m sure it gets way colder in other areas . 🤔
I subscribed about twenty seconds into this video. I can already tell that you're super cool.
Steven Pereira same

Steven Pereira I had done exactly the same and must admit back in the mid to late 90s i had done pretty much the same. For some strange reason i was far more content then than i was and am in bricks and mortar here in s.e. eng uk
i came across your youtube accidently and instantly subscribed. you are so amazing and really interesting to watch
idk how I got here but it seems like once she's done filming she just drives to her house and hops in bed.
😂😂😂
Fo sho
😂😂😂😂😂
Ya-feel-meh
Right I mean I was homeless living out motel to motel almost being under bridge every week, not once did I think about filming my life this has to be fake real people in the struggle are to focused on getting out the struggle not filming it, its humiliating why would anyone make sure they film there life, no you will be to focused on your next meal If you are going to sleep warm or cold it's to many personal concerns to go live unless this is the new thing smh
No disrespect if this is a lifestyle choice but i admire you so much for this video. Being homeless is so hard and its amazing that youre helping people make it easier. So inspired. And your attitude is on totally point. Best of luck you are amazing.
32?? girl I legit thought you were 22 at the most
hope
I thought she's 42 at the least
Hope you look cute
People in their 30s don’t look old
I agree
Erica Elizabeth it's a compliment ya dingus
😂Living in a car and USING EXPENSIVE SKIN CARE😊
I know, right!
Thought the same thing.
butterification I don't she ever said she was broke! She said many times she can afford an apartment but like living in her car.
Literally my first thought
She can afford that living in a car and not an expensive house lol
New subbie here. I'm about to binge watch your videos so I can learn your story 💜

Neil542 ??
I've lived in my car for a whole year not so fun and it's lonely but I finally got into my place
Yeah it sucks sleeping in a car it's like punishing urself with torture
What type of place do you park at? Don't most places not allow overnight parking? Doesn't security come by and hassle you?
Renting is a total waste of money! You get none of that $ back. Rent prices as well as utilities are constantly going up the past few yrs. Having money saved and financial freedom feels good. What guy doesn't like a low maintenance girl. 👍🏻
what i really want to know is where you take a shower?
I've also been living in my car for a few months. Tbh it's not as hard to adjust as I initially expected. Still can shower, do laundry, go to work, etc. The worst part is feeling vulnerable at night sometimes. No one 'in my life' even knows
I slept in my car for 2 years in Los Angeles. I just recently moved in with my man. Not sure where you are but it is so darn hot and humid and awful to sleep in LA in your car lol. Also noticed towards the end of the video, do you not cover your front windshield??? Id be so nervous sleeping with it uncovered. I also always had to crack my windows a bit because the windows would get foggy and then ppl would know im in my car.
How do you breathe in there? I've always wondered this.
John doe crack the windows?
@@kylasneed5545 I'm sure it still gets hot!!! Not only that but is it safe?
@@Johndoe-us8ob if u leave windows open rain or snow will fuck u up not including animals and insects + other hobo can break in
Hi katie, are you still living in your car, i am thinking to start living on my fifth wheel camper any tips and how moving around and going to work at the same time
Why dont you get a sun cover for your windshield?
I was a truck driver for 6 years. Living in a car is notmuch different just less room. So when you see those drivers realize there not just sitting on there ass .they are surviving and living like this like nomads except not as much needing to hide.it is a different way of life.
I am planning to drive almost cross country and your videos give me so much information and confidence. Thank you for being you.
starting to notice that you keep tags or boxes for everything.. do you use and then return things?
If you live in your car out of choice, and not necessity (as I'm seeing people state you're doing it because you like to travel), you should state that fact in your description where you're posting your PayPal, etc. It's very misleading.
Con artist,REAL homeless people are NOT buying expensive makeup,toothpaste,and camera holders...they would buy the basics,and save for a place,not ask for donations,SMDH! I know a con when I see one.
This is a stupid suggestion.
Being homeless is a serious issue. I agree. She needs a disclaimer that she's not homeless especially when you accepting donation. Not all people will go through all the videos to see if she's homeless or not.
she is very clear. your misconceptions are the problem. also if you follow her, it becomes clear that it really works for her for a lot of reasons.
Darke Deviant fully agree! I lived in my car bc I had no choice! I was in a different state than where I was from and got kicked out. I had no where to do and i worked . I waited tables so sometimes I could afford a cheap hotel room. There was no pay pal I had no phone. Ppl who lie and beg for money make me sick
Do you get your toothpaste and rinse at Target? I heard Charcoal toothpaste can heal the gums and so the mouth rinse makes sense too
Kathy Fann she got it from Tjmaxx. had the tag still on it.
Be careful if you take medication tho cus activated charcoal absorbs medications
How do you receive mail while living in car? Don't say PO Box bc a lot of forms require a physical address these days. Can you just meet with a lawyer or accountant and ask if they receive mail for any of their clients? Would that work?
Brave girl. Just came across your channel and am super intrigued. New subscriber now lol❤
