Our research is related to nomadic life in mobile homes. Life on the move is a strong phenomenon of today but at the same time has a great historical background. Wanting to define the practice of nomadism on wheels, we carried out a historical retrospect by collecting data on the first accommodations of nomads and the architectural thinking around them. These primitive constructions combined with the invention of the wheel and the carriage, sparked the thought of creating mobile homes. The first examples of caravans are found in Roman culture and have been a springboard for the technological and morphological development of the caravan as we know it today. The caravan industry experienced great growth relatively quickly as the unprecedented idea of travelling with one's home at the time seemed dreamy. However, due to the profitable industry more and more were the companies that were inaugurated, which resulted in a rapid increase in competition. The mobile home industry was in an ongoing process of finding new ideas to cope with the competition that existed and the emergency conditions it faced, such as that of the World War II.

In this day, there is a significant spread of the nomadic way of life and there is no clear count of the number of people living nomadically, as it is constantly increasing. This fluidity seems to be reflected in all aspects of a nomad's everyday life, as their nature is characterized by changing identities and motivations. The nomad seems to waver between conditions such as emergency or recreation, solitude or collegiality. These dipoles reinforce the variability that is distinguished in nomadic life, as the individual nomad is very likely to pass from one condition to another during his life. Wanting to further dive into the nomadic way of life, through the eyes of the subject, we collected recordings of nomadic life from the cinema, the small screen and also from social media. We therefore investigate the everyday life and the special characteristics of a modern nomad, the reasons why they follow the nomadism on wheels and the special relationship created between subject and vehicle, while at the same time questioning the idyllic image of life without obligations and commitments presented by the mobile home industry and social media.
