Vans

The origins of van living are connected to poor nomads of Europe who used wagons to caravan as entertainers and laborers during the late 1800s and early 1900s. Modern van living has taken hold among millennials seeking a mobile life.

Vans are best suited for level sites that can be easily accessed by a road. Vans can access some remote places depending on their make and model.

Yurts were designed specifically for mobility, so that nomadic people could quickly and easily transport them by horse. A yurt is a great option if you foresee a relocation.

Yurts are an extremely sustainable alternative habitat. Not only do they make minimal impact in terms of material use, yurts that utilize recycled materials can be easily bought and built.

A yurt may be best suited for a mild climate, but the structural elements and insulation options of a yurt make it more suitable for wind and snow. There are also many options for comfort control.

Used Vans can be relatively inexpensive to buy when you are remodeling them yourself, in the range of $20,000. Custom van conversions by one of the many emerging camper vn companies can cost around $120,000.
