This 150 Dollar Island Car Just Made Boat Life Easier! #japan #boatlife #travel

Living on a boat in remote Japan has its beauty… and its challenges. I’m moored in a quiet bay, in a remote spot on Amami Island, where the bus comes just a couple of times a day. With typhoon season approaching and writing deadlines too, I needed something on land: a shelter, an escape pod, and a way to move. So I took the ferry to Kakeroma Island to check out a $150 car. Something simple, something I could sleep in if needed, especially during storms. Spoiler: I bought it. Sometimes boat life needs a little help from land life. #BoatLife #TyphoonPrep #islandlife #japan
