Ever wondered how much VanLife really costs in Australia? In this video, I track every single thing I spent money on over 31 days, including food, fuel, car expenses, charity, upgrades to my van, and all the random little purchases that add up. I don’t normally budget — I’ve always been the type of person who just spends carefully without tracking. But I was curious… and many of you kept asking… so here it is: my real, honest, unfiltered monthly expenses living in a van in Western Australia. In this video I share: • My week-by-week spending • How much I spent on fuel, food, and car costs • What surprised me (and what didn’t!) • The unexpected costs of VanLife • How cheap (or not) van living actually is • Where I could cut costs if I had to • And my thoughts on donating money while living frugally Whether you’re planning your own VanLife adventure, curious about the cost of living in Australia, or just like peeking into other people’s budgets, I hope this helps! Let me know in the comments what YOU spend per month — I’m genuinely curious how I compare. Thanks for watching ❤️🚐✨ #VanLifeAustralia #CostOfLivingAustralia #VanLifeBudget #VanLifeCosts #LivingInAVan #VanLife2025 #SoloFemaleVanLife #MinimalistLiving
