Solo Bikepacking: How I Live Under a Tarp on the Mediterranean Coast

I’m Kiwi, and I’m currently living life on the road.* After being made homeless in London three years ago despite working a full-time job, I decided to take my life in a different direction. Now, I’m fully self-supported through this YouTube community, traveling the world on my "steaded"—a fully loaded bike—and living under a tarp.    • Homeless But Free | The Reality of Life on...   In today’s video, I’m setting up a makeshift home on the beautiful (but rugged) Mediterranean coast near Montpellier, France. From dealing with the "Monday shutdown" in France to managing a "Groundhog Day" routine of packing and unpacking, this is the reality of minimalist outdoor living. *In this episode:* *The Reality of Homelessness:* How I went from the streets of London to a self-supported life on YouTube. *Coastal Stealth Camping:* Building a temporary shelter on the rocky shores of the Mediterranean. *Outdoor Cooking:* Making a €28 supermarket haul (Tagliatellé Bolognese) stretch while using a struggling JetBoil. *The Highs and Lows:* Dealing with a string of bad luck—lost gear, a broken bike, and a ripped DD 4x4 tarp—while staying joyous. Living outdoors isn't always easy, but the freedom to cycle anywhere makes it worth it. Grab a cup of tea, sit back, and join me for a few nights under the stars. --- *SUPPORT THE JOURNEY* If you enjoyed this video, the best way to help is to watch until the end, give it a *Thumbs Up**, and **Share* the link!
