How to “go” when you are on the go

Food goes in and it must come out, that goes for you, me and even folk who live on the road. It’s one of the things that people either don’t think about or that’s all they think about. For those who live in their van, you can choose to toilet and bathe in your van, or you can stay close enough to places where you can toilet and bathe. It’s possible to go a few days (or even longer) between showers, you can so what my parents referred to as a spit bath (my dad used to say chorus girl bath), but you have to use the toilet on a daily basis.

For me, I would do the bucket method like Will Burson, I think he has a good setup, I’d personally want a better “seat”, but other than that, his setup is great, a double layer of trash bags in a 5 gallon bucket, a bit of kitty litter and a Gamma Seal lid and he’s setup.

He also shows a bit how he cleans himself, using baby wipes, and using a small sink to shampoo his hair. I understand he goes to a gym for regular showers, but when he’s not close to that gym, he cleans up between time in this manner. I read some of the comments people left on his YouTube page, most understand but it’s amazing at the number of people who say how gross this is… hello? Everyone poops, EVERYONE, how can that be gross? Do these people not use the toilet themselves?

Here is the video, enjoy!
