    041 | Transitioning From Vanlife To House Life

    This week we're back with 5 things that are easier in a house, along with 5 things that have been harder for us as we move into our new house and take up part time van life. 5 things that are easier 1. Grocery shopping and bulk food buying 2. Internet bill is much cheaper 3. Getting up and going to bed at different times 4. More space for cooking and cleaning.  Unlimited hot water 5. A daily routine 5 things that are harder 1. Lot’s more things to buy or have.  Need to “fill whatever space you have” 2. Chore take longer.  4 hours to shovel our driveway and roof?! 3. More expensive.  Things to buy, utilities, etc.. 4. Going on trips.  Have to PACK now. 5. Adventure access - everything is a trip somewhere now 5+. Projects all the time.  Floors.  Painting.  Electrical outlets.  Old kitchen.  Old bathrooms.
