Get Mobile. Here's How.
Gwen
Most of you know I'm now living a mobile lifestyle. (I prefer this terminology to "vagrant" or Capshaw's more euphemistic "nomad.") The plan is emerging, but I know for sure that I don't want to pay another deposit (yesterday's sticker shocker? $975 for a one-room in downtown Boulder) for a house that hasn't gotten a deep clean since the '40s, a landlord that neglects to check her fire extinguishers and looks like it might go up in flames any minute. Yesterday, a tenant that's moving out showed me the fireplace and said, "it really works!" Oh, goody!
So, it's either tent-living (nylon condo), overseas travel or house-sitting for me, for now...which brings me to... The latest from Plunge Artist, a one-page PDF checklist for anyone looking to break their lease to live on the streets, in their car, or in the skies while still being able to work.

Okay, I don’t think I can get rid of my kids, family and pets but it looks like a great checklist for those who want to downsize even if we can’t be mobile. My question though is where is the portable shower :) You could also house crash and trade work/yoga lessons for lodging/food :)
