Parabens linda rainha voce e muito linda e este maraviloso engenheiro gosto muito de voces
Britney. Try to be more real. Don’t fake. I’m telling you that with good feelings 🙂
your lovely van’s best modification is y’all… 🚐
Awesome tips guys! Love ya!
You have the best layout, I have seen so many different layouts and I still come back to you guys.. if you ever sell I am buying
Oh to be young again!
lets meet the parents you two are so cool i’d like to meet the ones that made you who you are. just an idea
I live in SLC, wish you did a meet up. It looks like Timpanogos behind you. Timp is a beautiful hike from a few directions. Sundance is my favorite.
Cool your in my city. I live just East of the salt flats downtown slc.
If you two want to catch a good breakfast go to the Park Cafe in slc.
it’s located in 1300 South and 600 East across from the historic Liberty Park.
Have fun… You two are the cutest down to earth couple ever.
Peace.
Hope you all in joy. S I c. Next time try. Grand. Junction. He. Haa lol
So guys are so lovely 😭💖✨
I like watching how you two also incorporate a budget easy, healthy eating lifestyle along the journey with occasional date night/special occasions dinners, treats… Great all around money saving tips travel and enjoy your life/
You literally have no idea how helpful this vid is. Love to see a vid about “things we would do differently” about the van now you’ve lived in it for a while (if there’s anything!)
Hi guys. Welcome two salt lake city. Thir is a lot nice places hear two see. Enjoy. 🙂
I like the Arabic cokekola
I love the jean pockets….really good idea 👏
Bonneville speed week will be my final stop before BM next year.
yalls pizza night too adorable 😍
Had thief attempt to break into our Sprinter build this week in Lowe’s parking lot. Wasn’t successful but did some damage. I noticed in your last video that you have some sort of lock on the inside of your rear doors. What is it. Where do I get one? Thanks guys! God bless you both!
One of my fav builds, it’s got everything including a homey and unique feel. Keep making great videos!
Dear M.& M. A. Hey were in Utah south of Salt Lake City. We have a 2008 Dodge Sprinter. Same color as yours. I’m about a month from completion. Want to stop in for a meal and to give me a tip or two. Welcome to camp in our driveway. Love to have you over. Jon and Kate. 8019216382
I subscribed right after they said PIZZA NIGHT that way. oh my. But seriously, I dig it all.
Sorry I missed the premiere. But I just watched all your tips. Some solid advice here. Love that Moroccan light over the sink. I feel like every time you to a van walk-through I see some other fabulous trinket I didn’t catch before. You two should be proud. Where is your next adventure?
I’m so happy you guys have a great life and love life to the fullest.
You always come up with new interesting content! Love your ideas and absolutely agree with you two about all of it.
I’m glad you managed to rid off all that dust. 😁
Hugs and kisses from UK xx
Very nice van…I am a safety person…love the stealth features AND the super anti-theft stuff…as per usual you two have brains, beauty, wellness, and joy. I am actually thinking about your future…even…if you are "in the moment"! You two are going to be the most amazing parents someday. Yep, already hope you get to continue to continue this great adventure even if you want to grow roots!!! Awesome, lovelies. Have fun, enjoy your hard work, and know this lady is very much on your side. Please stay healthy, warm, and happy together. I actually like you as individuals too. Your partnership is really wonderful to see but you are also two spirits who have individual styles and strengths….go team!
Sleeping beneath power lines (9:40) isn’t healthy long term because electricity can cause headaches,. Otherwise such a great video. You guys have my heart. 🙂
Very helpful hear from people who not only built their own van but have lived in various set ups! This was great guys thanks!
Hey guys! I have been following your adventures for some time, my husband and I live/work remotely in our self converted 2017 Sprinter. We are 30 and 34 and we love to meet people around our age that can’t stop traveling. We are currently around Denver after spending the summer in Alaska and the following weeks we will go to Moab and Salt Lake. It would be great if we could meet somewhere and have some drinks, dinner, ice cream, ride our bikes, or spend some time in the water (we have a kayak). Please contact me if interested 720 646 6344. PD. I’m almost 5ft tall as well :), so fun is guaranteed
Van life looks like a dream when you have a positive partner and not someone hitting you in the head with dirty pots. Lol. I wonder how much they spend on gas though…
Now that you’ve given a wonderful tour of your van and some compelling reasons to way you built it and reasons why you included different features….how about a video of how you two met and what your lives were like before you hooked up and began your trek.
love your van but here in Australia we live outside our van and we are much much older so different set up, we were just born to early
You guys are SO cute 😍😍 From Haven & I in Minnesota! We love living vicariously thru you 🤗
Great video! I’m finishing my build to convert this 2006 Itaska Navion 23J (Sprinter 3500) into an "overland lite" vehicle for South America. Could you please check the link to the USB AC unit? Could you say some more about unit? Best practices for use before bed?
I subscribed!! I’ve been watching loads of van life and RV videos and yours is Superior to all the rest in my opinion. You’ve thought of everything!!! I would choose your van build if I could do a van build!
I’m 68 yrs old and disabled but I live vicariously through your videos. I’m going to donate and purchase through your channel. Thank you for sharing your life with so many who may not be able to actually have a life like yours!!! 🤗😍☺🤗😊😍🤟
Nice overview! Thanks :]
Ads? No way! 13:10
Bonn-e-ville Salt Flats!! Thats 4.5 hours from me! I noticed you guys have been digging the Idaho/Wy area. Are you guys from here?
Now I find myself catching up on your old videos. No matter which video I watch, you guys make me laugh. (Laughing is a good thing). What a great team you two make! I find myself calling Drew, (Mr. information) when Brittany is having a hard time with specs. Haha I do envy your lifestyle and all of the great places you get to go and things you get to see. Speaking of lifestyle, ya’ll are heathy eaters! I was raised vegetarian. Oh!, I do eat meat from time to time now. Welcome back to the US of A!
The link to portable USB air con is wrong?
she`s always high..
Beautiful SPIRITS all around. I plan to pick up a copy of the book.
Just a comment about the water filter, it sounds like you have a reverse osmosis without a mineral filter which if true is not good. Reverse osmosis removes almost everything from the water including the minerals which we call hungry water, it’s important to replace those minerals or your body will rob calcium from your bones to neutralize the water which of course will lead to brittle bones 🙁
4 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼 up
Love how “homey” your van is! I love when people’s homes are a reflection of their journey…makes them so special 💜
Love your van..the way u have it set up everything in it.love when you’re cooking ..❤..awesome video..safe travels.God bless u both.
Lov it. In 90sq feet you have optimised it well. Great ideas and i wonder if anyone else screenshots idea’s for ther van build like me? Lol
We found a camping spot with solid wifi so we can do a Premier with you all 🤗 Looking forward to seeing you tomorrow! MMA♡
Thanks guys!
I always thought it was pronounced " bon -E-vill" instead of "bon-vill"
I’m going to check.
You must have gotten dusted out at Burning Man.
