Camping by myself
Hey all you hivers 🐝 I am just making a post to glorify my position of contentment in life.
This is my first time posting to faces of hive and I wanted to introduce myself to you all!
Hiii I am @rilo 

![img_0.9221110846470045.jpg](https://images.ecency.com/DQmTW7TiRHfQxmaLkDrBQghkn3Zb19CtxAPgVA22Y4ZjcKK/img_0.9221110846470045.jpg)

Currently, I am camping right now to save money in between housing and life is good(currently paying only $50 for access to monthly internet and electricity as well as washroom facilities).

 Unfortunately, I lost my taxpaying job in January before the corona virus really hit and have had hardluck securing a stable income until very recently ensuing this episode of tent life.

'Home is where the heart is' anyways right?

![img_0.7684331986871704.jpg](https://images.ecency.com/DQmdNc6nC1royt16XgbKT2WZghVX46MR2wKhUg4tysQkAxz/img_0.7684331986871704.jpg)

It's my day off from my fast food job πŸ˜’ Just tryna reflect and think about what is my next best steps in life.

![img_0.3828597226201806.jpg](https://images.ecency.com/DQme4ptJvKtXYrJ33wfFG5J8iWv6XEyVmpccuwMimidfq4A/img_0.3828597226201806.jpg)

Been chillin with my cybertronic son BMO 😝 making plans for the future. He is the one who got me into cryptocurrency πŸ˜‚

I went shopping today and was able to get enough groceries to last me a week on $25!

![img_0.6888441254381892.jpg](https://images.ecency.com/DQmezmstkNLi8PbdzRpEbHk2GVAYDiMjPiptMxugEswFE1q/img_0.6888441254381892.jpg)

A little about me:

I am a visual artist living in the US and I am working at Popeye's to alleviate some stress and begin to lift myself out of homelessness.

![img_0.49952294401003305.jpg](https://images.ecency.com/DQmeg8z41jkh6ZfMUASjVi2fTSPYLnqXS76MX5QtaKWgxqU/img_0.49952294401003305.jpg)

Its not so bad to be honest I am excited to be able to do this and save money while I work a tax paying job as a productive contributing member of society. With internet the night time has been great because I can still game and connect with you guys! HMU if you play League of Legends or any other Riot Games✨❀πŸ”₯

Thankfully I was able to secure a car before I was forced to leave my last place of residence so I have a "safe" space to store my laptop and belongings while I work.

![img_0.9108140141878848.jpg](https://images.ecency.com/DQmWP6Z2Xat8As4FKdcQeBUFDzmnPAQwn8TDBkT35kEGUdN/img_0.9108140141878848.jpg)

I am able to survive by using the backyard of a property I manage and making the best of every opportunity encountered. 

If I can manage to save $2K in the next 2 months I will be able to buy an RV and setup shop on someones land. 

![img_0.8493421953966489.jpg](https://images.ecency.com/DQmQbGRVsQdMPqxBersyfdF2EC5nWuraXKYpGftQimmysJW/img_0.8493421953966489.jpg)

It may be difficult but I have to try and lift myself out of this place and this is the only feasible option.

![img_0.9407803027325623.jpg](https://images.ecency.com/DQmX2ffNb7HTGcu1RJchtA55fsE1vn97mnkVvv7b75fSdcY/img_0.9407803027325623.jpg)

Enjoy this skellicorn sketch I studied and further developed into a rilo style chibiskellicorn that is going to be vectored and made into a proper graphic.

Anyways Whats buzzin with the hive tribe?
Any of you fine folks ever experience homelessness? I would love to connect so please drop me a line or two 😊

Im certainly going to try and treat it as such.  So far this is the longest I have ever been "camping", at a little over a month now. Given the circumstances it really isnt that bad and I have already grown to become less reliant on others in this time but I seek for even more self reliance. As an artist I see this as an issue of marketing or more to the point: capital to actually reach my audience. I should probably just take more time to document my daily thoughts and creations. If I share more content here I may be doing myself a favor. Maybe I will develop a process of monetization of my content and services through the hive ecosystem? A habit of posting daily would improve my stats immensely but I seem to find myself reluctant nevertheless.

Look at the post I reblogged on my profile. It is about tokenizing art. It may be useful to you.

Wow. That is a lot happening in your life right now.
I don't know how it would feel to be homeless as I am lucky enough to have held the same job for the last 12 years which gives stability. At least you have a plan and a goal to improve your current situation. Hopefully you can work your way to that rv and keep going from there.

@rilo · 
I would never be able to sit still for 12 years mate that is one helluva a track record to dedication and loyalty! You can be on my team anydayπŸ˜‰

For me it was a natural transition after the situation that occurred put me in the streets(break up with a long time off and on partner).

I like to think of myself as being able to conquer any situation and make the best of it!

At the root of this issue in my life(lack of resources) is the centralization of power and access to currency/fruitful opportunity for better quality of life.

By being on the blockchain right now in this format and on this platform we are both already taking steps to alleviate this problem.

Kudos to you my friend! 

The RV isnt a necessity but it sure would improve my lot in life at the moment. These types of situations force people like me(people of solitude) into meeting new faces and shaking new hands so it could just be a matter of who you know. 

In the past couple of days I have been busy with logo design for myself and a friend who plays Teamfight Tactics 
(a Riot Games autochess game) with me. 

I have a lot of projects going on to keep me busy as an artist but I truly need to devote more time to marketing materials and actual digital graphics rather than traditional/conceptual creation.

Please let me know if you have any tips for my professional development or growing my presence here!
