vanlife

Van-dwelling or vanlife is an unconventional lifestyle of living in a car, van or other motor vehicle. A person who lives in such a manner, either on a full or part-time basis, is known as a vanlifer, van dweller, car dweller or vehicle dweller. People who live this way by choice are typically seeking a more self-sufficient lifestyle characterized by freedom and mobility. They may perceive it as being a less regulated form of housing, or one that offers a lower cost advantage over standard housing, especially in regions susceptible to housing shortages. Other vehicle dwellers may be one step away from living on the street or in a shelter.
In the late 2010s, an idealized version has been popularized through social media with the hashtag #vanlife which gained significant momentum during the COVID-19 pandemic.
