I quit my job to live in lorry with my hubby – yes, we bicker but we have a double bed, TV & air fryer, it’s all we need

A WOMAN quit her job to travel the US in a truck with her husband and despite bickering a lot, the pair wouldn't have it any other way. Mila Horton, 29, grew up dreaming of travelling the world - but until she met her now-husband, Jermaine, 31, she had never considered doing it in a truck and making it her home.

Now she's able to be a 'passenger princess' as her husband drives nearly 500 miles a day delivering refrigerators. In 2021, the pair decided to put their possessions into storage and ditch their home to transform the truck into their tiny home. Mila, a content creator who documents their travels on TikToks, originally from Atlanta, Georgia, US, said: "Trucking wasn't part of my plan - it was never a desire of mine.

"But I also never thought I'd be able to see nearly all 50 states in a year - so it's been a dream come true. "We still make sure we get out and do things - we always told ourselves we wouldn't let it stop us having fun. "A lot of people see us online and think our life is fake because it looks so fun - but it really is great.".

They've been to every state except for Vermont, New York, New Hampshire, Maine, Connecticut, Massachusetts and Rhode Island. They decorated the small living space in their truck so it's cosy - with a rug, fairy lights, plants, wallpaper and personal photos - because it's where they eat, sleep and relax.
