I sold everything and bought an old truck and an old slide-in camper and took off. I was 27. It was the best thing I ever did. I had some adventures., met lots of nice people and eventually settled down 1000 miles from home which was the second best thing I ever did. I wish I was 27 again because now I am 63. Disabled and back home and can only watch other young people traveling around. Have fun with your van. One job for you to consider is tree planting over the winter. Hard work but quite the experience!

The things you learn about yourself, the world & life when you're in a campervan driving aimlessly wherever you want to go is one of the best feelings. I did it after a terrible break up / grandparents passing away all around the same time. I felt like I lost who I was. Being in a campervan made me fall in love with myself again. Made me appreciate what has happened to me in my life and what it taught me. I hope you do it and the best of luck to you.

Don't let things like woodworking turn you off from building out the van exactly the way you want it. There are a lot of soft skills that can be acquired easily with just some reading and research on the internet. I never sewed anything in my life before, and just recently finished a full backpack project from scratch with a $50 garage sale sewing machine. If you want it, go and get it. Don't be daunted by what you see other people do on their van builds. You are you're only limit.

I encourage you to try it!! Do you have a van already? You can start out taking weekend trips and see how you like it. You don’t have to do anything fancy. Watch the first few episodes of vancitylife. He had a really easy way to make a bed platform. And he starts out really simple. I think living in a van would be easy by yourself but a little more trying with 2. My main problem is finding a good free spot to park. But if you could go camping in a van that’s perfect or live an outdoors kind of life. Also climate is a consideration. I wish you well!! Even if you could just do it for a certain time frame and save some money...

Nice to see others from our tribe of thought, I bought our van for under $6ooo and we have had many, many excellent times. As an aging hippie I can’t really see myself in a buffed out Mercedes, maybe a bus!!!!

Although, I just noticed your KZread channel, and other similar channels, displaying van living. I just wanted to remind everyone to Aware Be of your surroundings and Alert, I just posted this anyway to help anyone who may benefit from these suggestions I believe that it is very helpful, and beneficial to others who may be thinking about this type of living without actually thinking through, about the some of the realistic problems that could occur with vehicle or van living etc... People need to know what the up sides there are, as well as some of the down sides of vehicle living. I believe this channel, and other channels have been informative to others, including myself. Although, I am NOT living in a vehicle or anything like this. I feel that you , and others KZreadrs sharing this with your viewers will be very helpful. I wish you ALL the Best with your traveling endeavors. I shared this with several other travelers, as I watched their KZread channel for the first time, as yours, and I shared with them this information that may be helpful to you as well to others. Therefore, I would also like to suggest a few Safety tips, and items that may help you, or others in your viewing audience. Although, you may have knowledge of this already, I am not sure, so I hope this will be helpful to you, others or someone. *Keep a Extra working cellphone with you or in your vehicle. You can purchase inexpensive phone with a very low monthly price between 25, 35, 45, dollars a month with unlimited data and text, and some have Nationwide coverage Do your research for the best fit for you Consider Carrying Several Extra portable cellphone phone chargers, and cables. Consider theses items: *Mini portable power charging station. I have also seen outdoor portable solar powered power stations, that can be recharged from sunlight this may be very useful to have, to power your devices. *Invest in a Cellular signal booster for outdoor use, and camping situations to boost or amplify your cell signal and reception. Consider also the purchase of a WiFi signal booster to also boost your WiFi signal. Research to see what you prefer. *Very Inportant: Invest in a SOS distress electronic signal device, this a kind of device can send out a distress signal with your exact location. There are various types of these devices, and including devices that can be used when boating, or camping situations. *Some have emergency Strobe lights SOS signaling with location alerts, and location updates that can be sent to your family, and emergency first responders. Some can be synchronized with your smart watch or phone. There are some satellite SOS texting messaging, locator devices that will send messages with your phone even if there isn’t any cellular signal, or WiFi. With this device your can still text, and communicate with others in a emergency satellite transmission. Check online, for various emergency SOS products, some are small to fit in the palm of your hand. You can check online, and on Amazon, research what SOS devices will be a good fit for you. *Mini portable vehicle battery jumper charger *vehicle battery jumper cables *Vehicle Jumper cables *PLEASE BE AWARE* that in the *WINTER* *vehicle *Batteries fail* many times in very cold weather conditions. Vehicle batteries drain more often in the winter months. Please Keep a vehicle battery portable jumper pack, this is a device that can jumper or boost your vehicles battery yourself without another vehicle. If you have a older battery in your vehicle, Please have it tested or replace it, and consider the purchase a new vehicle battery with higher Cold Cranking Amps rating. Be Aware that Sometimes even a battery that is a few years old can fail in the Winter months, and extremely cold temperatures. Some alternatives to Winter Camping, Travelers, Explorers, etc, if you can find a Warmer Climate Location to stay during Extreme Winter months, or stay with family for a few weeks. Another alternative is renting somewhere although this can probably get expensive. What ever you decide Be Careful, Alert, Aware, Safe, and Informed... *Keep a Fire extinguisher handy *Smoke detectors, and Carbon monoxide detectors can be helpful Keep a First Aid kit with Bandages, antiseptic, and other first aid necessities etc. and good vitamin supplementation, and fluids that promote hydration. Consider installing; *Mounted Dashboard camera front and rear possibly. *Exterior vehicle mounted camera for the front, rear, and both sides of your vehicle. Some can be activated by motion, Including spotlights. *Interior vehicle cameras *Flashlights or pluggin spotlights *Portable spotlights, and lanterns Keep a few whistles around with you, and in your vehicle possibly in your vehicle’s center console *Keep a Sound horn, for hiking this can service, as a deterrent, and a emergency signal alert for others. *A set of long range 2 way radios, walkie talkies, to communicate with others during trips, some have 100 mile radius keep for emergencies, you can keep with you when hiking. Use your own discretion regarding the use carrying of any weapons. Don’t forget to bring Bear Spray Pepper spray Where is allowed Purchase a couple canisters just in case and keep it with you If you own a drone you can use it to survey your area for animals etc. However, Please Be Safe and Beware of your Surroundings. Stay Alert, and Be Safe even when stopping at Rest stops, Truck Stops, and conducting your various tasks. Keep in often contact with your family, friends etc. Keep up with the latest Weather Updates, beware and prepare for unexpected Weather events and conditions. *VERY IMPORTANT* *WINTER AWARENESS* I would suggest *NOT* to travel to locations without internet, or cellular service in the Winter, the reason is that weather conditions can change very quickly, and you absolutely DO NOT want have a vehicle break down, or malfunction, or emergency, and not have the availability to communicate, and contact your family, and or, emergency road assistance, or emergency services. Please Keep in mind that even in area where there is cellular service and internet, in the Winter sometimes there are ice storms that may occur and this can cause Power or Electrical failures, until utilities crews repair lines. *Your Safety is Important* *PLEASE BE AWARE* that in some extreme cold temperatures that vehicle fuel lines could Freeze and causing a vehicle to not start. Just in case Keep your gas tank filled, which helps prevent vehicle fuel lines from freezing. Keep gas or fuel line additive, or gas line antifreeze, that is rated to use okay for your vehicle. Check with your a certified mechanic and your vehicle owners manual, and or dealer repair facility to inquire what is best to prevent freezing gas tank and lines in extreme cold. In the Winter even your bottled Water can freeze so Be Careful and Plan ahead. *Safety is Paramount* *Your Life is Important* *You want to Live to Travel another Day* *So Be Safe* *Stay Alert* *Keep your vehicle gas filled* Don’t ride on fumes, or on Empty. Don’t chance your Safety by running your vehicle fuel or gas too close to Empty. Fill it up anyway, it will save you alot of time, and headache later on. Remember to keep up on routine maintenance, check your tires for wear, keep up with your fluids for your vehicle, like oil levels, antifreeze coolant, Please carry extra (oil)(washer fluid), (brake fluid), (antifreeze). You will need extra Winshield Washer fluid because of the ever changing Weather conditions, dustly roads, especially in slushy wet roads. *WINTER AWARENESS* In the winter consider purchasing and deicing Windshield Washer Fluid, for the much colder weather conditions.

We've been working on a 5 x 10 trailer. We basically have done exactly what you guys have done. I picked up the old trailer for $500. Cleaned it up good and fixed leaks. The trailer was used for mobile car wash. I would like to keep up with you guys. My girlfriend and I are currently in alabama. We've gotten jobs so that we can do repairs and make our home better. You guys have been doing this longer. I'm sure that we can learn from you guys.

Dishes and ....horse mask. 😆 I love it!

I admire your courage on taking on a older gem and for making it work for you. When I get my van, I will probably put a twin bed in and make it horizontal to the van, with the kitchen and storage also horizontal. I could make storage under my bed and in the back. But I'm glad that layout works for you folks. I look forward to seeing your progress

Wonderful. You seem like such a sweet person. Good luck to you guys.

That would be nice to hear you play your banjo 👍 I like Doyle Lawson gospel bluegrass- "I Won't Have To Worry Anymore" 🙌

This is so awesome. You guys keep on trucking. 👍
