Nationless Mobile Home

This is the Nationless Mobile Home. I have recently picked up one of these 'chrome' bags because it is going to serve as my mobile home while I am in Europe this Fall. Its is big enough for my essentials. Clothes + Cash + Camera + Notebook + Sillystring. On the plus side it is weatherproof, theftproof, incredibly comfortable and of course, stylish, but it doesn't make you stand out like a sore thumb. You want to stay low key. Blend in all chameleon-like. On the down side, it has no toilet, no shower, no clean sheets, nor a place to rinse a toothbrush. It does make a nice pillow though.

What is a home to a person who doesn't really have a home? What do they need essentially? Their heart seems to be all that they need to satisfy in order to live. The modern nomad needs a means to staying healthy and get by in a world that is constantly changing. Their home is a place that fuels their passionate curiosity, a storage system for their essentials, and a means of getting by (talent > cash). Currency will open doors for people. Whether they like it or not, the nomad needs to afford being a nomad, but their way of making money is not the same as a paycheck coming to their doorstep in the mail once a week.

Having the means, attitude, and vernacular for having no stable fit in a defined culture is the first step to becoming nationless. A homeless person's goal is to simply get by in life, home or no home. The modern nomad is an explorer who's curiosity helps them find a piece of home in all that they see and experience.

P.S. I love my new bag/home.
