Maye Musk, Tesla Inc. and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk‘s mother, recently shared insights into her sleeping arrangements when visiting her son. In a tweet, she said, “I have many memories of sleeping on mattresses or blankets on the floor, on couches or a bed in the garage” at her son’s place. 

Maye Musk also mentioned that her other two children, Kimbal and Tosca, have encountered similar situations. “We adapt. It’s still better than sleeping on the ground in the Kalahari Desert with lions or hyenas nearby, which I did as a child,” she said. Maye Musk’s tweet was in response to Elon Musk’s mention of sleeping on a friend’s couch over the weekend. Her comments shed light on the down-to-earth accommodations at her son’s residence and her own flexibility in adjusting to different circumstances.
