You did a great job getting your van ready. The next trip should be easier. If it doesn't feel right, leave a go somewhere you feel safe. Have a safe trip back home.
You did good. What a smart equipment set up you have too! I'm so sorry it was scary at first, but you did it! And to Butterfly Tracks. I just found your channel. I'm loving it!
Love her! I use the pellets of the wood I don't even need to use something for the urine because the wood soaks it right up makes it completely easy to throw out. If you're low income you'd qualify for Obamacare.
I really like her honesty about being anxious. Being honest about the anxiety gives other women the strength to work through it as well. I got a lot of great van life tips. Thank you for an awesome interview.
Great build. Just an FYI, it's dangerous to have that bar attached to those side panels. Her side airbags deploy from those panels and she's going to be seriously hurt if she gets into an accident. I had the same idea but did some research when I saw the air bag symbol on the panel.
Great tips on car camping equipment! I related so much to the anxiety. I hope to be on the road by next year. Weathertech is awesome -products can be pricey but items are extremely durable and last over the years.
Great tips, thank you. I am no expert but I would have her look into medicare when she is eligible for SS at 62. Do your research and stick with traditional medicare plans. The advantage (not) plans are only an advantage for insurance co. When you travel any provider will see you under traditional. Advantage plans limit who is in your network, this can make you stuck with 100% of treatment $ if provider out of network
I just love how organized this lady is. She really has made every bit of space count. It's so amazing to see how creative people are. Great vid with lots of ideas. Thanks to you both for this. Loved it. Safe travels .πππ
We need to start considering the Golden Girls lifestyle! One really nice big 5th Wheel with 2 or 3 rooms and share the RV LOT RENT usually about $600 month which would be $200-$300 month as roommates. We could still keep our vans but have a permanent home for things like medical needs or just rest from the nomad life! I'm very interested in doing both but would love to have at least (2) roommates! I'm working on my van at the moment and I've also lived at a nice RV resort but can't really afford the RV LOT alone. I'm in Florida outside of Tampa near Plant City if anyone is interested! Please let me know. You could still travel as much as you like as often as you like but having a home base for things like a permanent address and a place to come home, sounds like a much better option. Some of us do not have families or children to fall back on. We could even do like a seasonal share to limit the cost of monthly lot rent.
Glad to see you have our English ridge monkey. Cooks really quickly and you can split and use as 2 pans. And the kettle just easy to fill from bottle, jug or tap
charlie horses….sound like you need magnesium…also alittle pickle juice helps pretty fastly.nice job on van….I know a lot about leg cramps since taking magnesium I have none.
Wow. She's got every gadget out there! She was a great interview and really knows how to pack it away. I have all the equipment I need, just still saving for my van. Hope to meet you all out there on the road.

Nice set up, all her needs and yet not cluttered.
Hi Jan! I really enjoyed this interview and van tour. She did such a good job showing everything! I could listen to her all day, she is so sweet.

Enjoyed the video, she has a lot of good ideas. The holidays coming up and I am getting ready. I hope to make it to Quartzsite this year
Nice tour. The lady has LOTS of stuff..
I like the way you store your cords.

So very organized and ready for anything. Great tour.
Tonic water for leg cramps and place a bar of ivory soap at your feet at night under the bedsheets. Try it!
Lol… duct tape and a hatchet …
I love the video I love my rich monkey too but I would like a big one they make the small one nowadays and I donβt like itπ
She is adorable, she looks like she is 20 years old! Good job equipping your van!
I love her. She is just special. β€
Can we get some links for the products?
She is so cute !!
Such a great minivan tour. She was well prepared. Thanks for sharing.

Wow, this lady has really done her homework. She has everything
She has the best travel companion! He didn't bat an eye, just napped through everything.
I have seen that you all seem to have community, and no information on how van people get together. I love your work and pointers. Thank you.
Wow. She's got every gadget out there!
She was a great interview and really knows how to pack it away. I have all the equipment I need, just still saving for my van. Hope to meet you all out there on the road.
Great organization!! I retired at 62 and used the government insurance…it was well worth it!
