Congratulations on a full year of every week! For someone who is phobic of any kind of commitment (with the exception you are well aware of), that is a stunning thing, that kind of consistency.

My one comment about van life is that -- and I know you know this -- the majority of people live that way aren't doing it because they wouldn't like to have a more permanent and larger home. They're doing it because they can't afford one in our housing market (I have several friends like this) and because they are who they are, they turn it into an adventure. I suspect they are they are the majority, and the people who are doing it even though they have better options are the exceptions.

There's a really good book about this called Nomadland that paints the picture in vivid detail. It's a good and sobering read, if you're interested. https://www.amazon.com/Nomadland-Surviving-America-Twenty-First-Century/
