VW T3 - Polarekspressen with his owner
Moving from an apartment into a car
A lot of things is in a way. Stuff I collected during all those years has to go. Furniture I do not longer need and all my clothes I think I'm ever gonna use has to be sorted and 70% of them all have to go as garbage.
Simplicity is my only goal now. Everything needs to fit in a small room which is becoming my kitchen, my living room, my car and my castle of safety.
Where to put my dry food?... I need to build a shell. I have some camping equipment I may use in the future. Do I need this? - Yeah. It may happen you are going to need it. In this way my conversation with myself continuous for a couple of weeks.
This process takes time. A lot of time.
Everything you think you have planned and figured out turns different. Still.
Even after I was finished. I'm not finished. I still need to sort out things and trow away things i do not use or need. For now it is the trial period.

Michael Winall Youget in Røros
First week on the road living in a car
My name is Michael and I have been on many trips with my car - Polarekspressen. But this is different. This is something I need to get used to. I feel I am leaving everything behind. Everything I may had worked for and every establishment I ever created. Friendships, family and this form of daily life most of us living and breathing.
All the space that I have has to be practically arranged. It has to work well. If it doesn't I may not have enough space for myself or even worst, do not sleep well getting tired. Motivation is important to keep up. All those thoughts of insecurity must be overpowered by curiosity.
Where to go next?
This is the question I asked myself a lot of times lately. Driving without any direction or destination is a challenge. This kind of the freedom costs choices. You have to decide. Make a statement for yourself every time a decision is made.
My first week is about adopting. Adopting to this feeling of this king of freedom.

Documenting my travel and sharing my journey
All this work. I wonder how it is like to succeed living of Internet? What comes next?
Is this something I can do? Will I be the one living of travelling?

I decided to create my videos as a weekly show which will be coming out every Wednesday. Before I moved into my Volkswagen T3 I was making daily videos. See this playlist on Youtube.
Now the conditions had changed and I need to make some adjustments. In between there will be Travel Tip videos about interesting destinations.
Thank you for watching and follow me on Facebook.
