I prefer to consider myself a free spirit but am sure some people have thought I was not right in the head. I lived in a SUV for a little over a year driving around visiting National Parks in the US. I really enjoyed it but know some of my family thought I was a nutter. Living on a camper/car for a year BECAUSE you are traveling and want to see the Natl parks sounds totally normal. Not because you have a pathological fear of spending your own money because you worry it will run out. I’d rather die broke. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely, I am not recommending this "money saving" strategy. But the person said join the gym to save on the water bill right? How else is it gonna affect the water bill?

ripstanley Posted April 15, 2023 Share Posted April 15, 2023 I always check my bills. I have been over charged and undercharged. If over i ask and if under I tell them. The best was a lottery seller gave me 500 baht too much. I gave it back and the look on her face was amazing. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im sure he ment it as one of the bonuses to join a gym, and also shower with other men added to the obvious joining a gym for health benefits. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 500 to much was a gift from Buddha, and you gave it back giving you double luck and happiness. If Christianity it was a test, and not to mention Islam, who would cut your hands of for not giving it back if you noticed. Just a joke, a bad joke 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really enjoyed it but know some of my family thought I was a nutter. If I ever returned to the USA, that is exactly what I have in mind to do. Wouldn't be for a year, but till my end of days. Really can't think of a better existence if I returned. Being nomadic works for me, always has. And NO ... family would think that's way too cool, and not a nutter. We're like minded in that aspect.

I used to shower at work, only because I was hungover, and or running late. Or never made it home to begin with, the night prior. After the first wave of flights, (1 hr) I'd shower and be fresh for the rest of the day. Edited April 16, 2023 by KhunLA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Golly, but that name brings back memories! I used to have a stalker that kept getting banned and coming back as someone else. I think he died or something as did stop eventually.
