Ever heard of “homesteading”? This movement, focused on a self-sufficient lifestyle often off the grid, is gaining popularity amid rising inflation, making it an alternative for those struggling to maintain their standard of living.
Meet Mama V, a resilient woman who embraced this lifestyle by leaving city life behind for an old mini school bus, with plans to build a sustainable cabin in the woods. Facing space constraints, a kind neighbor gifted her an old camping trailer, affectionately dubbed “ugly but mine.”
After selling her bus, Mama V, with the help of friends Jayme and Kevin, embarked on transforming the neglected trailer. Post-cleaning and stocking up, Mama V settled into her temporary, yet cozy, new home, featuring two propane tanks, a full kitchen, twin beds, and more.
Though not her forever home, Mama V is thrilled with the comfort it provides for her and her pets. As she dreams of planting a garden and embracing a simple, peaceful life, Mama V is grateful for friends, pets, and the neighbor’s generosity that paved the way for this new chapter in her life.
