If you are in fairly good physical health, you have to believe in yourself and broaden your horizons. Get exercise and eat to live so that you can get out and do things. Visit libraries and read. You don't have to check out books. Read part of a book and put it back on the shelf. If it really interests you, go back and read some more of the same book. If it has been checked out, start another book and repeat the process. Volunteer at a charity business such as Boys and Girls Club stores or a food pantry. Make your life more interesting for you and others will benefit from the good deeds you do.

Ok time for my annual story about an experience I had a couple of years ago. I've just started full time vanlife (Ram Promaster High Top) and at the time I was still a bit stressed about the new lifestyle. I just pulled into the parking lot at Cracker Barrell in Flagstaff , got out to stretch my legs a bit when a truck camper (truck with the removable RV shell on the back) pulled in. Nose first and then the lady decided she'd rather reverse in. So I helped with directions. Afterwards she got out, walked over to thank me. She was little (5ft and not an inch more) , told me that she was 85 and has been doing this for the last 15 years. Yes , she started at 70. She told me that all her friends are dead and those who are not dead just sit and stare in front of them. She continued by saying that one day they'll just find her in her truck camper, and that is fine by her. When she walked off I thought to myself, Wow I'm pushing 60 and I think that I just met my very first role model.

Lindy, Figured out how to live in a small space. She built it out with what she had available and makes it work for her. She has a sort of nest with everything she needs within her reach. She identifies with her living arrangement and is both minded with her van and satisfied with her system for living. She knows that if she weakens physically or cognitive lying that she might not be able to sustain her nomadic life. She uses a cane and walker in part. Apparently she has a son who provides some support for her. She is proud of her independence and is very aware of the contingencies many people face associated with loneliness and depression. Wellness checks are essential for the aged who live alone in cars vans campers and such. She does have a very strong life strength and positive attitude that will help her through many obstacles associated with the process of ageing.

God bless her ! Good attitude. I get my stubbornness from my parents, God rest their souls. My dad was a marine in his youth, strong and honorable. And my mom was energetic and smart. I am 62 with leukemia for over 20 years now, I took care of myself with the excellent start my parents gave me, staying healthy. I now have room mates temporarily that I don't get along with and in my two co op apartments there is always neighbors and street noise . I would LOVE quiet. I am a nomad and I am also taking steps for my life. Good luck Linda !

Lindy makes some excellent points especially regard costs to do van life. When she said most people do not have the funds to buy an expensive van ( RV, my words). That reminds me of the Tiny House dilemma where unless you have access to $100K be it from the sale of a home or Life Insurance policy most that lifestyle becomes a dream. The longer it takes to save for that lifestyle prices, the more that lifestyle increases. Congrats to Lindy and may she enjoy many more years of freedom.

She reminds me a bit of my parents and grandparents, in various ways. Survivors, creative thinkers - hard stock, they were. This woman may live to be 100 and still living & loving the nomad life. I too like small spaces, and tend to view space as a challenge to be functional in. Oddly, I do feel a bit claustrophobic in a full elevator. 🤔 Or folks camping near me.

Such a lovely lady. Absolutely love her down to earth, easy living arrangement. She has made a home to suit her needs and comfort. She is a genius. Some might say society puts pressure on us to want and feel we need more. This lovely lady knows what she wants and needs. Not only that she has it. ❤ My own is far from fancy. As a northerners my needs in terms of insulation, HVAC are a little more demanding. I wasted some money on stuff I really didn't need, consequently don't use. For the mist part it was a matter of putting in a heating system when I figured out what might work best for me and when I needed it. More and more folks are needing to find a way to live in reasonable comfort at an affordable cost. Housing in Canada is out of reach for the average person not to mention folks on pension, disability or minimum wage. I am going to share this video. Gaining confidence in living a good life on small budget lifts a person's spirit. Every so often someone says to me, " Oh, I could never live like that and I know they are right, they could not, at least not without an attitude change. There are many ways to measure success. I don't think success is truly achieved when we set a standard of living that exceeds more than we really need.

She is one of the most honest beautiful spirits I have seen. She has courage intelligence and resourcefulness! She is an example of a person living independently and on their own terms. Mist would not accept her lifestyle but I thing she is a modern day pioneer like you bob thanks for the good content

its so interesting to me that people lose confidence as they get older. why ? you got to be older by being confident and knowing how to do anything and everything life came at you with.

I am 46....age 43 my eyesight really changed...especially at night....I figure by age 55 or 60 I probably shouldn't climb ladders or go up to the attic anymore....maybe with help. It's hard to imagine being told you need to start using a walker...or you can't drive anymore. Feels like your independence and freedom being taken away.....maybe it's just me.

It's entirely possibly that an individual might have confidence in one area of life (career), and not in another. For example, a surviving spouse that everything (domestic duties) done for them. Add a few maladies (physical & mental) that they find difficult, or even "impossible" to do. One has to want to live, to begin with. Now, for me, that's not an issue. For some it debilitating - they feel like any physical or mental effort is just too much. A deep funk, so to speak.

The loss of confidence (for me) comes with the realization that I can't do the things that used to come easily. So I have to work around things more.

I think some lose confidence because the people around them tell them they can’t do this or that. It’s like many decades ago when people told girls they couldn’t do stuff cause they were a girl. Now we know that’s crap. Of course, some people haven’t taken care of themselves and age quickly and badly, and lose hope along with confidence.

Hah!! I also will be turning 76 in February and I’m on my second kayak tool. This time it’s a blowup I keep in my van as I live in a second floor walk up no storage.

Lindey, is awesome, and a true inspiration to living on the road. Personally i live in a 23ft Class C RV, but i get awesome ideas from people likke this. We are all simply trying to survive, and live the best life we can, and she has opened my eyes to new ideas, and ways to do things. Lindey, you are awesome, and i would love to, some day, meet you....that would be awesome. Good luck to you, and you go girl :)

First you are so sweet. My grandma was 96 when I started spending everyday with her. She died four years ago. In a lot of ways you remind me of her.
