    Is this van beautiful or what?? You can book Christopher Wallace for yourself! Just mention "The Endless Adventure" for $100 off your trip www.yamanomad.com/ 🙌

    This area is where I lived with my husband when we were first married in 1985 to 1988. We spent many hours exploring and picnicing there. Sadly my husband passed away on July 8 2019 after a12 year battle with Parkinson's disease. It brings back wonderful memories, thank you.

    That is a great camper van. The people who renovated this understand what you need when you travel. My neighbor has an Airstream with similar features.

    I was 4 weeks in Canada and this country is so beautiful 😍. You can see so many animals (deers, blackbears, grizzly bears …!) The people are so friendly and helpfully! Everybody should go on time in his life to Canada, to visit and feel the nature. ❤️
    Your van is very beautiful!

    OMy Gosh this is Amazing. We're RVers and with a small camper as we foodie explore, but this rig you've got is perfect! It's got all you need.
    For the first time we are definitely rethinking a van camper after seeing this episode.
    As usual, you guys are breaking new and exciting travel territory and we're loving it :)
    So inspired by this one guys. Thanks for the share.
    Best, James and Kim

    Whenever I switch from right-hand drive to left or vice versa, I’m generally pretty OK as long as there are context cues-road markings, other traffic, etc. but when you’re on a single lane road or car park aisle, it requires some concentration. And I’ve had to remind myself to turn the correct way into a roundabout. Always clockwise in RHD countries! Drive safely!

    Love Canada and would love to go back again some time. I was there in the early 90s on a family holiday where we drove from Calgary to Vancouver going through Banff, Kamloops and Jasper so pretty much the route you are going. All national parks with some amazing scenery.

    What a great video! You guys are so funny......like two kids getting ready for vacation or something. This is an awesome van set up....seriously. It's so refreshing to see how someone realizes how much attention should be given to the toilet and shower situation. I mean come on.......should be the first thing you think about! Right? Well......you are no fuss about it. Gotta have bed, bathroom and kitchen.......period! Very simple......nicely decorated.......lots of room......and yes those chairs are awesome! I know you're already having a blast....so relax and enjoy the ride. Thanks so much for sharing.

    They did a heck of a job on this conversion, loads of high quality and cost items. Those Victron batteries are about $1500 USD each! I have the same composting head on my boat. I can't wait to see how you get along with it. Some say to add a little sugar to the urine bottle.

    • @calichef1962
      @calichef1962 5 років тому +7

      I used to enjoy camping, when I was much younger. Then I married a man who worked out in the middle of nowhere at a rock quarry. We lived at the quarry all week and went home on weekends. At the job site we lived in a tiny 12-foot teardrop trailer with only 12-volt battery power, no fridge, no bathroom, no running water and no AC, when we had record breaking 115F degree heat really sucked. Between having to go 25 miles into a tiny town to get ice every single day of our lives, carry 20 gallons of water in about three times per week, charge five 12-volt batteries every weekend, and bathing in a cold creek, camping lost it's allure. Living in a place where I had to keep my broom outside the door to sweep the step and under the step for *rattlesnakes* every time I went out wasn't any fun, either. Watching peregrine falcons and bald eagles hunt was great fun. So was watching the swarms of bats that flew out of a nearby cave at sunset every night. I got to be a pretty decent amateur astronomer, too, since there wasn't anything to do at night.

      Totally agree. They really look excited about the camper. They love being able to do things just the two of them with no crowds...so having a camper van really allows them just go. We're full time travelers and totally going to be adding a Canada van tour to our list.

    The Rocky Mountain National Parks aren't just Banff and Jasper. Crossing into British Columbia and you enter Yoho National Park. And then a bit further west is Revelstoke National park. Yoho has one of favourite mountain lakes, Emerald Lake, which has incredibly green water. Unbelievably beautiful, and nowhere near as commercialized as Lake Louise.
    Some amazing back country hiking out of Banff and Lake Louise too. Don't know about Jasper.

    These vans are amazing. I’ve spent many hours researching different van manufacturers and NOTHING comes close to what Yama offers. The Canadian companies in general are just much better than any US van/RV manufacturers. Looks like they’ve got lithium batteries in there also, and I’d love to hear more about the inner workings of the van. When it’s time to buy, I may have to look into getting something custom like this.

So glad you both are enjoying the camper. Excited to see what's to come. Enjoy that Alison Goulash of chicken, quinoa broccoli and wine. Great video and loved the editing.
