I never want to live in a normal house so made my van a tiny home – I’ve been in it for five years & it’s perfect | The Sun

A WOMAN has revealed how she ditched her normal home for life on the road after transforming a van into a tiny apartment.

It was 2018 when TikTok user Nic bought a van and turned it into her dream home – but according to the young woman, from the UK, she is not done just yet. And may never be.


Nic, who regularly shares short snippets of her routine on TikTok, insisted that the traditional route is not the one she wants to take.
