A MUM-OF-TWO has spoken out about her ordeal as she struggles to find a house, leaving her family living in a tent.
Sushannah, from Australia, claims she can't find a house in Bundaberg due to the current rental crisis.
Housing prices in Australia have soared leaving many renters unable to keep up with the cost of rent as well as fewer properties available across major cities, like Bundaberg.
Since being made homeless the mum has shared what it's been like for the family on her TikTok account.
One video has gone viral with over one million views, which shows how Sushannah, her husband, Tristan, and their two children, two years old Delila and six months old Luna spend their day.
She said: "Another day in the life of a homeless family living in Australia, rental crisis edition."

They then head to the local library as Sushannah had to fill out some housing forms to apply for public housing.
"It was a lot of work, especially with these two (kids) as you can see – all Delila wanted to do was pick up books and put them in the wrong place," she said.

Once done, they headed back to their current home and picked up some food for dinner.
While eating, Luna takes a nap outside, and Sushannah addressed why they were both in swimsuits.
Living in the tent, the family spends a lot of time outside, and as the weather is unpredictable as it becomes winter, she said it was easier for her daughters to wear them.
The couple are also struggling with their living arrangements in the tent, with the bed constantly deflating.
She said: "Our air mattress also keeps deflating, so Tristan is going out to swap it, hopefully, it doesn't keep deflating."
In previous videos Sushannah shared that her family had already moved six hours away to be closer to family and to find work.
The mum-of-two was praised by followers for her strength in dealing with the tough living situation she is in.
One wrote: "Those two little legends are living their best lives which shows what an amazing job you are doing in such a challenging time. You are so admirable."
