Hello everyone,

Just a quick update a few months on, for anyone who was following or cared.

We’re all settled in now, and I’ve actually started planning a book about escaping the “rat race.” It’s aimed at people who feel:

• pushed to their limits
• their quality of life has been reduced
• they claim nothing from the state
• they’re working simply to pay bills with nothing left over

What this lifestyle has given me is:

• Time – the most valuable currency, limited and never guaranteed
• Money – around 90% of what I earn is now mine to save or spend
• Mental freedom – feeling relaxed, free, and genuinely stimulated

Of course, you trade one set of problems for another — like finding somewhere to empty a toilet — but honestly, the challenges you gain are trivial compared to the stress people face while stuck in the system.

If anyone wants free advice on how to start this kind of life, it can begin with anything:

• a caravan
• a motorhome
• a narrowboat
• a stealth campervan conversion
• a 5th wheel
• or countless other options

Feel free to drop me a message. I’m happy to answer anything you want to know. In a way, I feel it’s my duty to help others who are looking for the same freedom.

Sounds like it'll be a great read - good luck!

Hello,

For anyone still interested in this story, I have started the book.

For anyone interested in the financial side of things, as of March until September i have saved £9000! and work less, simply not paying crippling bills.

If anyone is interested in this life, happy to answer any questions!
