I feel like he has very artistic videos and therefore requires alot more time to create them before uploading. Where as if you Ryan Twomey his are very relatable and down to earth.
This video is a masterpiece . the vibe , the emotions , the editing , the color grading , the sound mixing ...immaculate .

Subscribed and saved so I can come back to it. This was gorgeous. Watched it 💯 percent through. Editing, sound, colour grading, the story telling through the diary and the transition from toy van on the map to real van in the parking lot, brilliant. The ideas were non-stop. I’m sure the editing took forever to do but bro, soooooo worth it. Inspiring.
Without noticing it in first place, I just realized this was the only video I managed to watch all the way through without skipping a single second recently. I really appreciate all the effort you put into this small movie and all the amazing small editing details. It makes you forget about life and it's never ending worries and teaches you to appreciate all the value in the little things.
Phenomenal ending edit starts at 20:25. Great job! So incredibly beautiful!

Masterpiece! I am witnessing the rise of a legendary van-life KZreadr here.
He's truly made himself the lead character...and to top it off, that is the coziest looking van I've ever seen...phenomenal work dude!

He’s so organized and clean, the interior of the van is very charming !

Okay so the youtube algorithm Gods blessed me this morning because this was the first video it recommended to me and I'm OBSESSED. EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS IS INSANE. In the best way. Its super chill and cinematic. From the food, to the scenic views, to the journaling in the end!! I know this channel is gonna blow up and I'm so happy to be part of the 10k subscriber crew.

One of the times KZread algorithm works right. I went into your video thinking it was another "van life" vlog and was going to play it in the background while I did chores. I literally stopped what I was doing and was hooked that first opening shot. I was immersed in the world you created and could not wait to watch more only to find out there are only two vids uploaded so far 😭😭 Everything you've put out so far is so unique and captivating. The vibe, cinematography, editing, transitions, music and that transition shot with the toy van 🔥 And it took me all the way to the end of the video to realize no one was talking. Damn. so good. Can't wait to follow along and see everything you do. Keep up the awesome work!
It's been so long since I've seen genuine effort and passion being put into a KZread video. Amazing quality, bravo honestly

Ok I finally found the best van life video. I have seen numerous people posting about van life. But they TALK ALL THE TIME ! Why would I want to spend 30 mins listening to people talking to the camera. I want to see how van life is all about ! Not talking and laughing to the camera.
As a sadly former vanlifer (i'm getting another van at some point) I just wanna say how crazy it drove me to watch you cook bacon in a van without a splash guard or something to stop the popping grease.
I have followed so many vanlife channels for years now but already fell in love with yours after only 2 videos! Your cooking is awesome and the scrapbook pics at the end is so endearing.
Felt like a timeless start to an awesome journey! Best of luck 🤞
Wow. I was about 1:15 in when I thought "This videos so well done. This guy has got to have a lot of subscribers." Keep up the good work and I have no doubt you'll be one of the top vanlife youtubers.
Oh wow! This guy is unreal, only two vids, this has to blow up, the cinematography is incredible
I loved the fact that there was NO MUSIC and then there was FANTASTIC MUSIC. BTW the french put the chocolate right in the milk and wisk well past the point of it being dissolved then it transforms into a sumptuous thick drink.
Missing the basket, followed by the sad walk of defeat to put it in the bin is so relatable.
18:53 that Cyberpunk ending 😢😢 dude you're Editing and style of video is out of the world. Hope to see more 👍🏾
Doing all these things by yourself is unbelievable. Good luck Charles !
It feels like watching a masterpiece
One of the prettiest Van Life Videos I‘ve ever seen. Brought some good feelings up in my heart!
keep up the amazing work Charles! thanks for sharing your adventures with us!
Bro, you're living my dream! I love travelling and the outdoors, but i'm also a pretty passionate gamer at heart. This is really the only way to meet both worlds. I'll keep dreaming and I hope you keep uploading :)
This is art. Glad I found your channel Charles.
A frikken masterpiece. The transition from the car to the map, the effort it took to get the wideshot in the desert of the car driving from left to right. Geez, what artistry.
I was lost in this video. Just simply entranced in each moment. What a joy to watch. Such a real feeling.
I mean, where do I begin? I don't know how this popped up on my feed but I'm so happy it did. This was amazing. Amazing editing quality. I love your life. You're also cutie, keep posting.

Beautiful van design, really like the warm earth tones. Living the dream man
Absolutely fantastic!. No interference from anything or anyone. A beautiful set up you have there too,
Honestly bro I loved the editing 0:47, 10:46 and 20:00 you are really good at this. It gives Texas/Mississippi vibes bro. We can't wait you to reach 2m+ subscribers. Your editing is so spectacular 🤩 loved it
I won't comment much but the direction of this vlog has to be appreciated. I have never been so lost and immersed myself in any yt video tbh but this one really caught my attention. Just wow!! This channel and this guy's camera skills are heavily underrated for REAL! You deserve the best bro, keep vlogging!!
Unbelievable editing, the best van life video I’ve ever seen. The thought and time that must’ve went into this and the ending was something out of a movie keep up the great work bro
Incredible video!!! This is so exciting!!
And this is the -first- video?? Outstanding my guy! I almost wish I found you later so I could binge watch it all. Love the camera work and all the cooking. Excited to see more!
The sense of aesthetics and art in this video is mindblowing. So calming
Yep definitely the best vanlife content you’ll find! Hats off to Charles!
Damn your van is next level. Organisation on point! Nicely done. Also neat idea your bin hanging from the back of the seat. Might upgrade mine haha.
Amazing! Absolutely nailed that edit!
This was like a short film, not just a standard a day in vanlife. So relaxing and calming! Amazing transitions!
Living vicariously through your videos man. Look forward to your next one!
let it be the start of a new journey. this video was a hard work but you are providing people with quality content so just don't stop and keep posting on regular basis. your channel will grow very fast
I've been following vanlifers for 6 years and your videos are clearly at the top when it comes to quality. My friendly advice here, if it takes a lot time to produce this level of quality, drop it. No one would mind. Consistency goes a long way when it comes to expand your audience. Best of luck!

I couldn’t disagree more. I’ve been traveling the country in my van for years; watching van life videos since 2016. 95% are small variations of the same thing. The quality production of your videos adds an element of entertainment not present in most others. I know it is time consuming and labor intensive to make such videos, but please keep up the great work.
Love it! Great video work!! It’s calming and entertaining. Makes ya wanna explore the country in a van. Looking forward to the next video!
I love the vibe, especially with the country music and all. Super chill. The van set up is amazing too. Keep it up. More videos please
So glad I found this! After I saw your red dead redemption 2 video, I became a big fan of yours and really looked forward to more of your work. Super cool to see you living that van life.
So excited I found your channel early on, this video is phenomenal. I can't wait to see what you have in store!
Absolutely love your Van Life! Love someone that keeps it clean, tight, and together! You don't seem like an animal person. Wish you did! But love your Van, and soul, and will keep following you in the future! Kat&Theo
After watching this I thought I’d take a look at your main channel expecting to see 10 billion trillion subscribers. You have some slick videography skills, and you can cook! 10 billion trillion soon ! 🤩
That intro was insane. Subscribed.
So beautifully well put together!!
Masterpiece. The vibes of this video are amazing, music, edit, every single second it's cared for it. Damn, u deserve a million sub!

Found this channel the other day and I’m so glad, love the videos!!
I feel like I just watched a movie, that editing is absolutely on point. Plus I love the van and the simple but beautiful lifestyle! I really enjoyed, thanks for sharing
Im kinda angry that this channel doesnt have like 20 mil subs yet, these videos are golden
Excited to see more videos as time goes on, fantastic!
Thank you for sharing your Van life story, It makes me inspired to work more until I can have my own van someday. ❤
Amazing video, beautiful shots and great story telling. Can’t wait to see more! 🎉
That was an awesome story telling without a single word said. Way to combine still shots, POV vids, still drone footages and short clips into a short movie. Editing was on point and I am sure it took a long time. Looking forward to the next vid. Congrats Charles!
Dude, the camera editing, filming is next level. The best vanlife video ive ever seen.
Your energy healed mine, thank you, this is art.
Just WOW! Amazing work!
I've watched a nauseating amount of van lifers here on YT and this is the best I've ever seen. So impressive. I hope you continue this editing style on your journey and I'm excited to see more from you!
This was excellent. And no fake product placements made it feel even more authentic. Thanks!
this video has such a unique style, I love it. Calm and peaceful, great job, keep going
Cool, video. Thanks for spending a day with us. Cool van love the color scheme!!
Love your style of video, peaceful and well-paced. The little snapshot photos interspersed throughout are a nice creative touch.
Great camera work on both videos up so far! Keep up the good work. Can’t wait to see more!
the visuals of this vlog is so great!! i love this video
Cool rig thoughtfully designed, a place for everything & looks good too. Cool to see what a full day looks like. This guy enjoys his day., cooking etc & the egg sandwich was innovative
holy shit, quality edits, and that van build is goorgeous it's so cozy, excited to see more! just adding something else, this format with the intro and ending (music choices are fantaastic it drives home the vibe and sets a great tone) are wow wow wow the cinematography, not to mention the scrapbooking with bits and pieces from the video's adventures !!! so whimsical i love it
I love this! So therapeutic...
This is so good. Spot on on what van life/bus life actually looks like. Love the video.
Just watched both of your current videos. I really hope KZread takes off for you because I could watch you and your eye for a beautiful shot all day! Good luck out there!
Great van setup! Love the cinematography looking forward to the videos and living vicariously through you. Wish I would’ve done what you did when I was younger!
