Freelance journalist Lexi Inks, 32, moved into an 18-square-meter motorhome on her parents' 48-hectare rural property in western Georgia (USA). Facing unstable income and rising living costs, she accepted her parents' offer to buy the motorhome in exchange for cooking dinner every night and helping with chores.
