Cheap Travel

You can’t live cheaply if you eat out all the time. The easiest (and healthiest) thing is to eat fruits, vegetables, salads, and sandwiches. If you want regular meals, it isn’t that hard to cook in your car/van. Here are a few things you will need: 1) an extreme cooler that will keep cold for five days, 2) a Coleman two burner stove, 3) a frying pan and spatula, two quart pot and lid, one plate, one bowl, lexan knife fork and spoon 4) a medium dishpan to wash and rinse your dishes in, 5) a spray bottle to rinse your dishes off after you wash them. With these few things you can prepare almost any meal and they take up very little room. I keep them tucked under my bed in a Rubbermaid tote. I slide it out when I am ready to cook a meal, empty it, turn it over, and cook on top of it.
