10. I've been living in a 8' x 16' insulated shed for 3 years now

I have an outhouse with flushing toilet and running water and a porch surrounded by my veggie and weed garden. I live in town but can pay my entire years rent and utilities with one month of weed trimming($3000).I rent from a friend who appreciates my support (everyone's working poor now it seems)and I have time for myself and my friends and community and I love it. I'll never live in a "real" house again. The comments to this thread are disappointing. Living in someones backyard isn't camping. I pay my way and have improved my friends backyard with my garden. Fuck you and your bullshit "oh pee and poop, leech etc.etc." Judge people on their carbon footprint, not your distaste for their lifestyles. You are the weird ones, not this guy.
