Obviously when living in a van, you have to find a place to park when you need to rest or you're planning on staying somewhere for a stretch of time. I never anticipated this to be an issue, but there are so many things that can go wrong. Particularly, I found that even if you're in a public place that's well-lit and safe, people get uneasy about a van never moving. We even had the police called on us once just to check what we were doing. And while I totally understand this, it was still an annoying struggle.
