How I really live Van Life

Is it glamorous? No, not always. But it is how I love living!
I really think it's important to show what is behind the highlight reel. What happens in the in between moments? What do I do when I need rest? Because, I need a lot of rest.
In this video I answer some questions about why I chose van life in the first place and then how I choose to live now that I live and travel in my van full time with my husband Brian.
I hope you enjoy joining me during my rest and recovery time after a wonderful trip home to Canada. Most of this video was shot at Sunset Camping on the coast of Albania near the town of Golem.
Thank you so so much for being here and for watching! I very much appreciate you!
Much love,
Krys

    This is by far one of my favourite vlogs!! I can relate in so many ways but also know there’s more I can do to refine the ingredients in my own recipe, especially as I embark on a new chapter in my life💙 thanks for opening up and sharing how you find joy 🌅

    Aw yay I’m glad you enjoyed and also feel as though I’m in good company if you can relate 💜. It’s kind of a fun process to refine our own ingredients.

    Downtime and campervan seem synonymous! Like PB&J, perfect together and meant to work together. Complimentary. I use a Sienna temp converted for campjng w my dog and LOVE how it works for us and appreciate the roof and quiet safe space. Keep living your pace!!!

    You hear about a lot of people say they wish they stayed longer in certain locations in their travels or burned out from all the driving. Your thought process should be part of a van life training guide😊. All jokes aside you always have to do what's best for you. Enjoy!

    It feels like I’m on the right track, but I’m sure I have quite a ways to go! I’m glad you got there in time. We sure learn a lot about ourselves as we navigate life’s ups and downs.

    This mentality is something I struggle with. Too much time doing nothing or not enough and then the oppositional, doing too much all the time and NOT listening to my body. Thanks for your tips on this, as well. Nice to know I'm not the only one. :)

    Thanks for sharing. You are definitely not alone in that! I have struggled often with allowing myself enough rest versus falling into a slump. I hope we can both listen to our bodies 💜

    True! We actually are often amongst retirees. Expect we are working during the day from our laptops 😂
