I’m a proud traveller but live in a house – people slam it and say my taste is tacky but they know nothing
A TRAVELLER woman has revealed why she is proud to live in a house instead of a mobile home – and people are amazed how spotless it is.
TikTok user Wendy Louise Jones uploaded a video showing around her pristine home, but said cruel trolls slam it as “tacky.”
On her @miss_wendy_louise_jones account, she showed inside her bedroom which had a pretty dressing table and full-length mirror.
Replying to a rude comment which criticised her taste, she said: “Why can’t people keep their nasty comments to themselves?
“Nothing nice to say, then say nothing at all I was taught.”
She previously showed viewers around her kitchen and dining room, which was decorated in a white and grey colour scheme.

Wendy said of the clip: “I’m proud to be a traveller in a house.
“Just because I don’t live in a caravan doesn’t mean I’m not a traveller, it’s our blood.”
The large room had a stylish dining room table and chairs, along with a fish tank and cake stand on the counter.
Many people were amazed at her immaculate pad, with one saying: “Never ever seen a dirty traveller house or caravan, always so so clean.”
