The family-of-four living off-grid
The government proposes reducing UK greenhouse gas emissions to almost zero by 2050, under a new plan to tackle climate change. The Victoria Derbyshire programme met a family who live self sufficiently and provide a glimpse of the kind of changes we may all need to make.
Hello!
We bought a van last month! You’re probably wondering “You quit sailing and started living in a van?!”
No,
we did not quit, and we are still sailing! We still have lots and lots
of plans with the boat, and we enjoy having it. We are still on it right
now, in fact, and couldn't be happier.
So then, why did we get a van?
Last
hurricane season, we mainly stayed on our boat. We did several short
sails, but we wanted to do something different this hurricane season.
We
talked to so many sailors, and we have quickly realized that many take a
few months away from their boat each year during hurricane season, and
we completely get it.
To
have the best of both worlds (in our minds), mountains and beaches, we
quickly realized that having a 4×4 van along with the boat is exactly
what we want.
We’ll
mainly be living/cruising on the boat, but we will also be occasionally
living in our van so that we can still do all the hiking, biking, and
rock climbing that we’ve been wanting to do. We’ve been feeling like
something has been missing from our lives, and now we feel refreshed and
ready again!
We
have a lot of travel off the boat this summer, for family reasons, a
wedding, and events, so having the van will make traveling everywhere
much more comfortable for us and our two dogs too.
Also,
another positive of living in a van is that the systems are pretty
simple, and there isn't a whole lot that goes into it. So, it's less
likely that we'll have large repairs that take up a lot of time and
money.
We
really wanted it to be as simple as possible. Since we already have a
sailboat that is quite complex (when compared to a van or RV), we wanted
our time in our van to be as carefree as possible.
I
know that some of you will think that we are nuts, so I won’t lie – I
hesitated talking about this until we drove the van off the lot because I
was afraid of being judged. When we sold our motorhome last year, we
already agreed at that point that we’d like to try living in a van when
we’re off the boat. So, yes, this was all in the original plan. And, the
van makes us even more excited for our future sailing plans!
We are so excited for the future and cannot wait to start exploring!
Thanks!
