Do you know what “homesteading” is? It’s a fad that has grown
in popularity recently, particularly with people in the 45–65
age range. The main goal of homesteading is to live off the grid
and independently, away from the bustle of the metropolis. Allow
me to introduce you to Mama V, a courageous, capable woman who
boldly chose to dedicate herself to this way of life. Mama V yearned
for a calmer, more tranquil living since she was sick of the hectic
pace of the city. She made the decision to live in an old mini-school
bus and left everything behind. But as time passed, Mama V became aware
that the bus was becoming a little crowded and her furry family—which now
included two dogs and many cats—was expanding. She wasn’t sure what to do and
needed more space. Fortunately, a kind neighbor intervened and offered Mama V
an old camper that had been sitting in his yard for years. Mama V accepted her
new trailer and said goodbye to her cherished bus, grateful for this thoughtful act.
Nevertheless, after being abandoned for so long, the trailer required some maintenance and a thorough cleaning.
Mama V had a nice and comfortable space in the trailer. It included two twin beds,
a working microwave, oven/stove combo, refrigerator, bathroom with shower and bathtub,
and a plenty of storage space—all the essentials she could ask for. Though it was
temporary, Mama V was happy to have a spacious and comfortable place to sleep.
Mama V couldn’t help but think about the calm, peaceful life she planned to create in the neighboring woods and the garden she wanted to establish as she settled into her new trailer. She viewed this as a chance for a new beginning and a more satisfying and sustainable way of life. Mama V is grateful for the support she has received on this new adventure from her friends, neighbors, and furry pets.
