Hiding in my room is live!

Testing.

Hi guys,

what's going on?

Yeah, I'm still camping.

2 weeks now.

It feels like I've been here forever.

Felt kind of bored, so decided to go live,

see how you guys are doing.

How long are you going to be camping for?

I don't know, really.

Um, I kind of have incentives to stay,

so

How do you have electricity?

Um, I've got a 62-kilowatt battery in the

car.

I lose about—

overnight I lose about 10 miles range from

the consumption.

Although, I mean, the car's not really

doing anything, so I don't know why I'm

losing anything.

I'm not charging anything and the car goes

into sleep mode.

So I don't really know why

it loses anything at all.

Total range, it's like 240 miles.

How's Spanish going?

Uh, I guess she's fine.

I haven't really seen her since that video

I made.

I guess it's only been 2 weeks.

It's not like we meet up every day.

Why are you camping?

Well, the weather was really good.

I felt bored at my mum's house.

The problem with staying at my mum's house

is, yeah, it's nice.

I don't have to do anything.

Oh wow, thanks, blessed bacon.

Yeah, I mean, it's nice having all my

cooked meals cooked and my laundry done,

and I don't have to worry about anything,

but it's boring.

It's like being a house cat where you

don't have to do anything.

It's not—

it's not challenging.

It's like life on easy mode, and that's

just boring.

I like there to be some kind of challenge,

like

I got— I've got to look after myself.

And you know, there's— okay, there's

always that safety net of the house being

there, so I don't— I'm not like completely

on my own,

but at least I get to like, um, I have

like a simulated version of life on a

slightly harder difficulty setting.

Yeah, when things get too much, I usually

end up going home.

But when I'm in a better, better mental

state, I feel like, yeah, I can do this.

Increase life difficulty a bit.

Also, nothing seems to happen when I'm at

my mom's house.

So I never meet any new people.

Nothing ever goes anywhere.

Life just is on freeze.

It seems like for anything to happen, I

have to leave the house and go somewhere.

What is the TOTK video?

I don't even know what that is.

So yeah, I like to have a bit of a

slightly more challenging life, which I

don't get when I'm at my mom's house.

It's nice for a bit of a break, but then,

then I'd like to try something new, like a

new location or country or lifestyle.

Tears of the Kingdom, I don't know.

I didn't even remember making that.

Hmm, so here's what's going on.

The weather has gotten much colder.

It rained all night yesterday, which was

quite relaxing until I remembered I left

my shoes outside and they were soaked.

Summer is probably ending now.

It's coming towards the end of August.

Another summer went by.

I had to spend it alone.

Be nice to be able to spend summer with

someone,

but I don't know why

I always end up for some reason alone

during the best months of the year.

I don't know if I can get a new

girlfriend,

but then even if I get a new girlfriend

now, it's probably going to end by the

time next summer starts if the current

trend continues.

Last summer I had with someone was 2024.

Didn't really do anything.

Like, I'd just really like to spend summer

with a special someone.

Would be nice.

I met a few people, but I haven't really

been able to like make a connection with

them.

So, what's going to happen is I have to

leave this campsite in about 5 days.

Um, the campsites here all close

after September,

But I don't really want to be spending any

more money in these campsites because it's

costing me like £20 a night, which adds up

to like £600 a month.

So I'm gonna try wild camping and just see

how that goes, and then I'm gonna get a

gym membership.

So I could use the showers and also work

out.

It's just I'm trying to figure out the

logistics, like the distance from the

charger.

The problem is you kind of have to go

pretty far out until there's anywhere

where you can wild camp.

I mean, I don't really— I don't really

want to just sleep in a car park.

It's kind of sketchy, and I don't want to

have the stress of someone knocking on my

window telling me to leave.

So I'm like thinking of going to some

remote area

where I could be in peace.

I'm also thinking I get like a, a long

plastic pipe so when I need to pee I can

stick it out the door and then just piss

down the pipe without having to get out

the car.

Could be quite nice.

What was for dinner?

I had a discounted curry katsu.

I ate it cold because I don't have a

microwave and it was disgusting.

I put it in the boot of the car for 4

hours hoping it would warm up And it

warmed up, I guess, but it wasn't cooked.

I mean, it was already cooked because it's

a ready meal, but it wasn't like back to

cooked status.

It was just like room temperature status.

I just swallowed it,

chewed and swallowed it.

I met this girl yesterday She was quite

nice.

The funny thing is she also does van life.

We hung out for a few hours.

She said she'd like to meet again,

so I'm hoping— she said her van is in MOT

right now,

so I'm wondering like where does she live

now she doesn't have the van?

I'm hoping like she knows places to park

up, or we could park up together

and hang out.

She can be in her van, I'll be in my car.

I think it would be nice to have a fellow

van lifer friend.

So we just hung out a couple hours and

then I asked for her phone number and she

said yes.

The problem is she takes ages to reply, so

it's hard to like get a conversation

going.

Did your mum kick you out?

No,

I wanted to try something new.

I wanted adventure.

A Spanish girl asked to meet up, but I

hadn't told her that I've moved out of

Devon, so I just said, oh yeah, I'll be in

Devon.

And then I drove back to Devon,

um, mainly to meet her and also try out

living in the car.

I thought about renting a new house, but I

don't know,

it's a lot of money and I just can't be

bothered with the whole process.

And then I'd have to get furniture all

over again.

I probably wouldn't get any though.

I'd probably just sleep on the floor with

my mattress.

And I just don't want to get into massive

debt again,

hence living in the car.

I'm just trying to meet more people so I

can create a network so I'm not completely

isolated and alone.

Like, it's not— I mean, it's going

Slow.

It's hard.

You're already in massive debt?

Yeah, only to my mum, not to like credit

cards or anything.

Been in the car, living in the car for

like 2 weeks now.

It's been—

I think it's been fairly easy because of

the campsites having showers and toilets,

but I

don't know,

I would like to save the £20 a night.

Because it would add up.

And also the campsites aren't going to be

open forever, so I'm gonna have to learn

how to do it anyway

unless I go to like some private farm site

that has a campsite all year round.

I think it's kind of a rip-off really.

I mean, £20 a night just to sit in a field

Should be like £10 a night, really.

Yeah, that's why I want to get the gym

membership, because I'd get toilets.

I mean, toilets aren't really a problem

because there's toilets everywhere.

The problem is when I'm bursting in the

morning and I can't really hold it in.

So I really need to poop in the morning.

It's like the food digests overnight and

then it's ready to come out in the

morning,

and you can't force it.

It would be ideal if I could just do it in

the evening, but my body doesn't work like

that.

But the gym would be mainly for the

shower.

I need a shower.

If I go a day without a shower, I just, I

feel grimy and sticky and gross.

Also, I'd like to work out.

I brought my dumbbell with me.

But if it's cold and raining, it'd be kind

of hard to work out, so it'd be nice to

have an indoor workout place.

So yeah, I'm just trying to figure out how

it's going to work,

like go to the gym at the end of the day,

shower

And then drive to the sleep location.

What would I do when it starts snowing?

I don't know.

I don't know how long I can last like

this.

I could turn the heating on in the car.

I don't know how long— I don't know how

much battery that's going to drain.

I guess I could blast the heating and then

turn it off.

And the heat should stay in the car with

the doors shut.

The problem is it gets kind of stuffy in

here and I want to open a window, but if

it's raining I get wet.

Did you hang out with Van Girl again?

No, we hung out yesterday.

She said we could meet again,

like we could go dog walking or something.

So that's a good sign.

It's always a good sign after the first

meet that the girl says she'd like to meet

again without me asking.

Surviving gives you purpose.

Yeah, I mean, if there's no problems in

life, then life gets kind of boring.

You're just like a house cat where

everything's done for you.

Easy mode.

It's, uh, it's fun having challenges and

trying to figure out solutions.

And the biggest problem is pooing

and having a private space to do it.

I guess I could just walk off into the

wilderness.

Um, but if there's people around, I

wouldn't be able to do it.

Do you feel misunderstood?

Yeah, all the time.

People always misunderstand me, and then I

try and explain it to them and they don't

believe it, or they think I'm just lying.

It's like I keep trying to say,

there's no such thing as a true self.

You have different versions of yourself

that you present to different audiences.

I, I guess the true self would be what I'm

like when there's no one around and

there's no cameras on.

When I'm just me being me for the sake of

being me.

Um, but yeah, I always,

I always edit my true self depending on

who I'm with.

I act differently with my mum compared to

how I act with my sister compared to how I

act with a girl compared to how I act on

stream.

I have many different masks.

True self is when you talk to the camera.

No, it's not.

It's a version of myself that I, I play

when the stream is on.

Sometimes I'm in a mood, I get angry and I

say stuff that I wish I didn't say, or I'm

in a weird mood

And I want to, you know, play devil's

advocate,

say some silly things.

It's kind of like being drunk

where you say stuff you didn't really mean

or you kind of regret saying.

But I hate this whole idea of, oh, you're

fake, or This is your true self, or that's

your true self.

No,

I don't have a true self.

I have different versions of myself

that I,

I curate depending on who I'm with.

I think that's pretty normal.

Everyone's like that to some degree.

I mean, who is— who just exists in one

consistent state

no matter who they're dealing with?

That's weird.

I mean, I guess you could say that's

consistent.

And maybe I'm not very consistent because

yet depending on who I'm talking to, I do

have the ability to alter who I am.

Do something to improve your life that

doesn't involve girls.

Like what?

I'm already doing it.

I'm working out.

I'm exploring, I'm meeting people,

learning new skills.

Like, what, what else can I be doing?

I am going to go to the gym.

It's just the gym I want to go to is

currently not open because they're doing

refurbishment.

I saw Keith the other day, chatted to him

for a bit.

Someone crashed into his car,

so he's getting a new car.

I don't like it when people ask me what my

hobbies are because I don't have any

hobbies,

and I feel,

I feel shamed for not having any hobbies,

like there's something wrong with me

because I don't have any hobbies.

And then I ask, okay, what's your hobby?

And they always just say boring stuff

like, oh, listening to music.

Or cooking.

These aren't hobbies, these are just

things everyone does.

Everyone cooks, everyone listens to music,

everyone watches movies.

It's not a hobby.

It's like saying, oh, breathing's my

hobby,

but I feel guilty for not having a hobby.

It's like if I don't have a hobby, then

I'm broken or something.

I mean, I don't really have— I used to

have hobbies like learning Japanese,

drawing,

stock market, but I got bored of them.

I don't really— my hobby now is like

living in my car.

Making videos is your hobby?

I don't even like making videos.

It's boring.

They don't even do well.

I made a bunch recently, all they got was

like 5K views.

Felt like a waste of time.

Why do you do them?

Try and make money, I guess.

I like to share what I'm doing.

I don't really—

I don't really enjoy editing and trying to

make an interesting video.

That's why I suck at it.

I mean, the only time I really enjoyed

doing YouTube was when I had drama and

something to talk about.

Um, and I could make some kind of series

out of it, but then I always get in some

kind of trouble because of it,

or it comes back to bite me later.

What are you up to these days?

I'm back in Devon.

I'm living in my car.

I'm trying to get a new girlfriend, but

it's hard.

At the start, there was no drama.

Why did you start?

Because I was lonely and I wanted to share

my experiences in life and, um,

Yeah, I wanted people to talk to,

and I also wanted to practice speaking.

I don't know if you remember my really old

videos, but I had like this weird lispy,

very unconfident way of speaking, and I, I

tried to fix my speech issues by making

videos and trying to become comfortable on

camera, which I think I did achieve.

I mean, yeah, if I wasn't lonely, I

probably wouldn't.

That's why I wasn't on YouTube for 9

months, because I wasn't lonely.

But now I'm lonely again,

and it's nice to have people to chat to.

Need to find a girl who's okay with being

used for views.

But I don't, I don't even want that.

Like, I don't want,

I don't want to use a girl for views.

I do YouTube for me, not because I want to

share it with someone.

Focusing on not living in a car would be a

good start.

It's a red flag.

Yeah, unless it's like a van life girl,

then she'd be cool with it, wouldn't she?

Unless the only reason she's interested in

me is because she's sick of van life and

she wants a free house to live in.

Then that way I'm filtering out

red flags in girls because, I mean, I

don't want her to like me because I got a

place.

Camping gets a lot of views.

Not when I do it.

Living in your Tesla gets a lot of views,

but when I do it, I only get 5K views.

So I don't know how other people do this,

do what I'm doing, they get like a million

views.

So either the channel's shadow banned or

my videos just suck so much

that no one cares.

It's just, I don't know what makes a good

video.

You gotta have charisma and charm.

Or if you don't have that, then you gotta

have video quality and editing.

If you have neither, then you're kind of

screwed.

The car light keeps going off if I open

the door.

If I shut the door,

or if I close it— oh, the Tesla doors are

so heavy.

It feels like so much effort to open them

sometimes.

People like storytelling, which you used

to have.

Yeah, but I've, I've told all my stories.

That's why I end up telling the same

stories over and over again,

because I've got nothing really else,

nothing else to talk about.

It's off again.

Why does it keep going off?

If I open it and leave it open a little

bit, it stays on longer,

I

think.

What people are interested in are

characters, but when it's just me on my

own, gets a bit stale.

But it's, it's hard to find people who

don't mind me talking about them.

Most people don't want to be talked about

because they end up getting mocked by my

viewers.

So they would need extremely thick skin

and a good sense of humor, which

unfortunately most girls just don't have.

So then I end up having to talk about them

behind her back.

And then they find out, and then they get

mad, and then I get hit with an NMO.

So then what you end up with is just me on

my own.

Yeah, I could go somewhere, but then at

the end of the day, it's just me by

myself.

So it's kind of tricky to find stuff to do

that I could talk about.

It's like, oh, I could go to a nice place

and then I just say, yeah, I went to this

nice place and it was nice.

Do I still have a laptop?

I actually didn't bring it with me for

some reason.

I don't really use it.

I only used it to update my spreadsheet,

but I can do that on my phone, so I

thought

there's no point bringing it then.

I also didn't think I'd be staying here

for so long, but now that I've met a few

people,

um, trying to build a, a network,

I feel like, yeah, I actually would like

to stay

I don't need the laptop anyway.

I only used to need it because I used to

game and I used to use it for live

streams, but now I just use my phone

because this is good enough.

I don't, I don't need Streamlabs and

overlays and a mic and all this nonsense.

Just keep it simple.

I don't even use the Starlink anymore.

I needed the Starlink in the previous

campsite, but in my new campsite I've got

5G here, so I don't need it.

Why not stay at home, pay your mum off

properly, then you can decide to start a

fresh new life instead of this half-assed

stuff?

Number 1, staying at my mum's house is

boring.

I feel like a house cat.

I don't have any autonomy or privacy.

Uh, number 2, I am still paying off the

debt.

Okay, it's gonna be a bit slower now.

I have to spend money on other things.

And number 3,

I don't need to pay off the entire debt to

start a new life.

I can do what I want whilst having the

debt.

The debt doesn't stop me from doing what I

want.

I'll still pay it off, just a bit slower

than I expected.

But there's no rush.

My mum just said just send me 500 a month

and that's fine.

She's not desperate for money.

I'll pay back whatever I can,

but

I just, I just don't feel like

I should put my whole life on hold just

because I've got debt.

I can do both.

I can do what I want in life and pay her

back.

Don't see why I have to put one thing on

hold to do the other.

And, um, I wanted to take advantage of

summer before it was over without having

to wait until next summer, which is gonna

be, what,

8 months away?

Clearing the obstacle of debt is important

to set up success in the future.

Um.

What success?

Like, if I magically received $20K now and

paid off all the debt,

what would change apart from I don't have

the debt anymore?

Like, what would I be able to now do Now I

don't have the debt.

I would still be doing this.

Am I worried about thunderstorms coming?

I think it should be fine.

The car's pretty secure.

It's better than a tent.

It's not going to blow away, is it?

Got 2,000 grams— no, I've got 2,000

kilograms of car protecting me from the

elements,

so I feel pretty safe in here.

The main problem is

I have to get out the car to get stuff

done, like make my coffee, do my exercise,

um, brush my teeth.

So I'm gonna have to learn how to do

everything within the car if it's raining,

which is gonna be challenging.

You know, it'd be pretty nice to actually

get a van so I could stand up.

Maybe I'll trade in the Tesla for a van.

How about that for the next crazy idea?

I go to a car dealership,

they'll take my Tesla, I'll get a van.

I'll get an electric van.

Yeah, so I took a shit this morning.

And I didn't wipe because I couldn't be

bothered,

and I thought it was fine.

But then I had a shower this evening to

wash it finally, and it was burning.

My asshole was fucking burning.

I do not recommend not wiping.

I don't know if people could smell it.

Sometimes I could smell shit a little bit,

but it dried up over the day.

And then at the end of the day, it was so

fucking itchy and like burning.

Not doing that again.

I do not recommend no wipe.

It was like burning my butthole.

I'll probably use the wet wipes next time.

You need a portable bidet?

How interesting you suggest that,

because I had one.

But I didn't bring it with me and it

wasn't mine.

So yeah, I'm gonna, um,

Next week I've got to leave the campsite

and find somewhere to sleep

in the middle.

I'm not sleeping on the side of the road.

I mean, it will be the side of the road,

but not like a busy road.

It'll be in the moors, probably.

Um,

Somewhere secluded.

Maybe Kit Hill.

Kit Hill's pretty quiet.

Aren't you bored?

Um, kind of.

I don't know what van life people do all

day.

They just sit in the van and then take

pictures for Instagram, I guess.

Are the back windows tinted?

Yeah, back windows, boot window, sunroof's

all tinted.

You will freeze to death.

I've got heating in the car.

I thought maybe I'd get the Jackery power

thing.

It can put out 1,500 watts, which is

enough to power anything really.

I could get an electric blanket, but those

Jackery things are like £1,000.

It would easily charge up in the car

and you can plug a 3-pin plug into it.

It's pretty expensive though.

Have you ever been arrested?

Yeah, I got arrested last year in October.

They took me to the station and they

interrogated me, and then they booted me

out on pre-charge bail.

And I said, can I get a lift home?

And they were like, oh, I think the

arresting officer's gone home.

And what's the fucking point arresting me?

Why don't you just say come to the police

station and I could have driven myself

there?

I had to get the bus and 2 taxis home.

They took my phone, I couldn't get an

Uber.

Thank God I had cash in my wallet,

although I could have just used an ATM.

Why'd they arrest you?

They said I breached my NMO,

but I didn't, so they dropped it.

How about figure that out before fucking

arresting me then?

Like, imagine arresting someone when you

don't even have enough evidence.

To make a case and then you just drop the

case.

How about, like, sort that out before

actually arresting me?

Fucking waste my fucking time.

I mean, I'm glad I didn't go to jail, but

at the same time I'm pissed off that I had

to go through the stress of— it was like 6

months of stress.

Kept saying, you gotta come back to the

station next month.

And then the next month will come and

they'll say, uh, you don't have to come,

we're still investigating, come back next

month.

And then next month will come and then

they'll say the same thing.

And then after 5 months, they just said

the case has been dropped.

Still didn't get my phone back though.

It was pretty stressful.

Worst experience of my life.

So boring being stuck in a cell.

I was stuck in— they put me in the cell

for like 6 hours.

It was so fucking boring.

I don't know how people survive in prison

for like years.

I guess they just work out and talk to the

other prisoners because that's all you can

do.

Yeah, the NMO expired, so I can talk about

it.

The food— they did offer me

sandwiches, cheese and onion crisps, but I

was too stressed out to have an appetite.

They took my fingerprints and a saliva

swab.

It took ages to do the fingerprints.

It wouldn't register my fingerprints.

I had to keep rolling my fingers over and

over.

So annoying.

Makes me wonder what happens if you're one

of those disabled people who don't have

hands.

What are they gonna fingerprint, your

toes?

I got charged with breaching the NMO and,

uh, non-violent harassment.

But they dropped both of

them.

No, nothing happened with Spanish girl.

We're just friends

that hang out.

Told you she was the devil.

Yeah,

I learned my lesson.

Don't talk shit about exes

until at least a year's passed, I guess.

Car living is one of your dumbest ideas.

Unhealthy and dangerous.

I think it's pretty interesting.

I've always kind of clickbaited the whole

I'm homeless thing.

Now I'm actually homeless.

In a way, it's kind of liberating not

being tied down by a rental contract,

landlords pestering you.

Oh God, I got an email from the previous

real estate agent saying—

so what happened with the previous place

was they wanted me to weed the garden,

empty the septic tank, top up the oil

tank, clean the house, and I just said,

nah, I'm not gonna do it, just take it out

my deposit.

So they took out the deposit, but there's

still £70 left in the deposit that they

want to give back to me.

So then they're like, can you log into the

deposit website so you can get your £70

back?

So I tried, I logged back in, but there's

nothing there to click on.

It's just got my previous tenancy in

Chillerton Park Court, but not my second

house.

So I don't know, I just don't really care.

£70 in it, let's keep it.

As if I'm gonna go back there and weed the

garden, pluck out every single weed.

Got better things to do.

I mean, I tried weeding it and then the

weeds just grow back.

How about don't have these stupid gravel

stone

garden things?

Just put grass or concrete.

Why are they— they gotta cheap out and do

the lazy thing and just cover the area in

little stones and then weeds will grow

through it.

And then what am I expected to do, spend

hours plucking out every single weed?

Fuck off.

Yeah, I, I sprayed weed killer on it.

It didn't do anything.

And then even if you spray weed killer,

okay, the weeds die, but then instead of

green weeds you now got brown weeds, and

then you gotta pluck those out.

Otherwise, you just got a bunch of dead

weeds everywhere instead of green weeds.

You know what I don't understand about

weeds?

So because it's been so hot and it hasn't

rained, all the grass everywhere is brown,

but the weeds are green.

How come the weeds stay green But the

grass goes brown.

Grass is fucking stupid.

Billions of years of evolution and they

can't even not go brown.

They need to take a leaf out of the weeds

book because weeds know what they're

doing.

How do the weeds stay green when there's

no rain?

Stupid grass, innit?

We— I mean, grass is just pathetic.

It just purely exists to be eaten by

ruminators.

Grass just grows and it's like, oh, please

eat me.

I just exist to be eaten because I'm

stupid fucking grass.

Get a life.

Imagine your whole existence is just so

you can get eaten by a cow.

Why did Moon bail on you?

Uh, she demanded I ban Crypt and I refused

to ban Crypt, and then she got mad.

I didn't get any new girls from the

channel.

And when I restarted the channel, there

were some girls in my DMs,

but

they all live so far away.

I mean, no one's going to get on a plane

and come and see me, are they?

They're all too young as well, like

20-something.

I'm just not really, not really interested

in 21, 20-year-olds.

I'd prefer a nice 30-something any day.

Didn't some girls actually take a plane to

see you?

Yeah, back when I was YouTube famous.

Who the hell is gonna jump on a plane to

go see some dead channel who barely gets

5K views?

When you got clout,

like, girls get on a plane, fly to you,

won't they?

No, I don't think Crip's interested

anymore.

She's always sick as well recently.

You're the man, you travel.

Yeah, but I don't want to go to their

country,

and I'm broke,

and I've got a cart,

so I can't just ditch the cart.

It would be too expensive.

So unless there's any girls in the UK

who want to do van life with me—

and there's plenty of space in here for 2

people.

You don't even have a van.

Yeah, I get an electric van because they

would be pretty— they should have a big

battery because it's a bigger vehicle.

But driving a van looks rubbish.

I like my Tesla because it's fast and fun

to drive.

Driving a van looks shit.

Plus, you're only allowed to go 60 on the

motorway, aren't you, in a van?

And then when— wouldn't everything just

fly around in the back?

Whilst you're driving.

How do you keep stuff in place when you're

driving?

I mean, all the plates and stuff will just

crash everywhere.

Why doesn't Tesla make a van?

They made a stupid semi thing and an ugly

truck.

I thought maybe you can like DIY a van out

of a Tesla.

You cut the roof off.

And then you Frankenstein on a van roof

if you had the know-how how to do that.

It would be nice to be able to stand up in

the vehicle.

I can't even sit up.

I mean, I can kind of sit up like this.

But not properly.

Oh wow, thanks, Late Tea Crate,

very generous.

Oh wow, thanks, Young Money, very

generous.

Give life recap since London apartment

arc.

There was what London apartment?

I had a Manchester apartment back in 2021.

When was the last time you watched?

I lived in Thailand for 2 years, went to

Japan,

and then I had a house in— had 2 houses in

Devon for a year and a half, and then I

had a mental breakdown and moved back in

with my mom for 3 months.

And then I came back to Devon to live in

my car.

So much happened since Manchester.

The whole Thailand thing went on for ages.

Is Sabrina okay with your lifestyle?

She hasn't even messaged me once since

I've started it.

Zero interest.

Not even a, how's it going?

What's it like?

You're saving good money living in your

car.

Yeah, it's true.

No council tax, no water bill,

no deposit, no

spending thousands going straight into the

landlord's pocket.

It does feel good.

It did not feel good renting And just

sending off £1,000 every month into my

landlord's pocket

just for the privilege to live in a house

that will never be mine.

I wouldn't want a house anyway.

So the thing is with me,

um, when I have a breakup I don't want to

be in the same house anymore.

It's too sad.

Everything reminds me of the relationship.

I want to get out of that place and start

fresh.

So if I bought a house and then had a

relationship and it didn't work out, which

let's face it is guaranteed basically,

then I'll be stuck in this sad house full

of sad memories.

I'd have to sell the house or just live in

this prison of memories.

So I don't think I ever want to have a

house really, because you, you just end up

stuck with it,

and having to sell it or rent it out is

such a pain in the backside, isn't it?

So much you have to deal with.

You know what I would like?

Buy a bit of land and then I just live on

the land in my car like a gypsy.

That's literally what the gypsies do.

They just buy a bit of land, they don't

need planning permission because they just

live in the mobile home.

Gypsies are basically just like pro-level

van lifers.

Buy some woodlands.

They're like 20K.

Lights out again.

Light seems to stay on for 30 minutes.

Yeah, I wonder how cheap you can buy a bit

of land for.

It's just so you have somewhere where you

could park up without having to,

uh, worry about

being told to leave or having to keep

paying every night.

But let's say a piece of land is like 20K.

And a campsite is what, £20 a night?

£600 a month,

that's £7,000 a year.

I guess you would break even after 3 years

if you got your own bit of land.

So I guess— oh, it's off again.

It only stays on for 30 minutes when the

doors are open.

So yeah, I mean, I guess if you're gonna

do this long term, after 3 years owning

your own bit of land would be much better

than living on a campsite.

I'll just dig a hole and have like a

hobbit hole.

Car arc isn't gonna last 3 years.

Yeah, yeah, I don't know.

I mean, either I get a girlfriend and then

I end up getting the house, or she has her

own house and then I just move into her

house, or I give up and I go back to my

mum's house.

Basically, this is like a war of

attrition.

How long can I hold out?

Doing this before I either cave and go

home or actually get a girlfriend.

I don't— the van thing isn't really the

issue.

The issue is where do I park the van?

I'm quite comfortable in the car,

although a van would be nice if it had a

shower

and a toilet.

You could park in any street.

Yeah, I mean, I could.

But then cars are going to be driving past

and people are going to be walking past.

It's not going to be nice.

I wouldn't feel— I wouldn't feel secure

or, um,

I want privacy.

Then you're driving around in a van would

be a red flag.

Get in the van.

Maybe if it's an electric van, like a nice

van.

Probably cost the same as my Tesla.

I don't know.

I mean, if the goal is to get a

girlfriend, I'm gonna need a house at some

point.

I don't know what kind of girl is going to

be okay with me living in my car.

Most people think it's kind of sad.

I used to think it was pretty sad.

If someone told me, oh, I want to live in

a van, I'd think that's just kind of sad.

Don't you want to live in a house?

It's like you've just given up on

having a house because it's too hard.

But I've had 2 houses,

and yeah, okay, it's, it's comfortable,

and yeah, it definitely was convenient

when I had a girlfriend to have her come

over to the house.

But it's such a pain.

You've got to get furniture, and then if

you've got to move out, you've got to move

the furniture,

and you've got to

keep the landlords happy.

I really don't know.

It's like 3 options, really.

You live in a car or van, You rent a house

or you own a house and pay a mortgage, and

then you're trapped,

stuck with the house.

Or you rent and then you're just giving

your money to a landlord,

and it's not permanent.

Really, really don't know what the best

course of action is.

Ideally, the girl would have her own

house, but the problem is everyone is so

broke in the UK, no one lives alone,

unlike in Japan.

In Japan

It's cheap to have your own place, your

own apartment in the city.

Used to be like £300, £400 a month.

Most, most people in Japan in their 30s or

even in the 20s have their own place, but

in the UK everyone's fucking broke and

lives with their fucking parents.

Unless they're like 40.

So if you want a woman who has her own

place, you gotta date some 40-year-old

woman who's probably a single mom at that

point.

But if you want a girl around your age—

although I'm 37 now,

but for some reason I keep ending up with

late 20s women who don't have their own

place.

In the UK, no one in their 20s has their

own place unless they're highly successful

with their career, but then

they're not going to want to date you.

Because they are high-value people

who would only want to date another

high-value person.

So the only option is I've got to get a

place,

and getting a place ends up put me in a

lot of debt.

Deposit, holding fee, furniture.

I went into £7,000 credit card debt when I

first moved to Devon.

I spent £3,000 on Airbnbs whilst looking

for a place when I should have just lived

in my car whilst looking for a place.

And then I probably spent like £4,000 on

furniture, kitchen appliances.

I don't know, maybe it was £2,000 to

£3,000.

Personality is everything in the dating

scene.

Yeah.

I mean, it's not just personality though,

it's ambition.

Women don't want to date a guy

who has no hobbies, no passions, no plan

in life, no ambition.

I mean, if you don't have any of those

things, then at least they might respect

that you've got a passion about something.

Or at least you might be funny and really

nice.

I mean, I can fake being nice for a bit

until I start getting annoyed.

What's my passion?

I don't have a passion, that's the

problem.

Nothing excites me.

I'm not really intrigued by anything.

There's not like one subject I could talk

your head off about.

I'm not really funny.

There's, there's certain people who do

find me funny,

but they're very rare.

I think,

I think I am quite— I can be quite funny

in an unconventional way.
