As a child, I really liked to sleep in the car rather than in the house. Now it turns out it was car camping! Such a vanlife! I live in my car quite professionally. In Western countries, a special term was coined during the night in the car and in Vanlife - boondocking. It means a VanLife night in a car in a random place not intended for overnight stays in a car with a completely absent VanLife infrastructure in this place. For some reason, in our country another definition of vanlife is more common - carcamping, that is, a narrower phenomenon. People on the way somewhere spend the night in a car somewhere in the middle of the forest.
