Sleeping Spaces

Sleeeeep. One of my favorite things to do. I’ve lived short term in my car for years and never put a lot of effort into my bed. I had a sleeping mat, like you would use while camping, and my awesome giant comforter, which I’ve had for years and will someday be buried with. When I moved back into the car a few months ago I knew that a good night’s sleep would be vital if I was going to be at work and school during the day. After some research I found a free futon mattress that fits great (it’s a little long) and that’s been working great for me. People have all sorts of great ideas for making their car a home. Check these out!
