    I feel like the number one lesson beyond whether you like camping and out doors, is whether you are willing to reduce the amount of things you have... if you are not willing to do that then a smaller space is not for you regardless its a van or not.

      You’re absolutely right, this lifestyle is great for people that don’t need a lot of things.

      I agree with you both: " #Vanlife isn't for everyone".

    I think it would be fun for a summer or a few months, but I couldn't do it full time unless I had to, then I would make it work and love it anyway 😄

      Hi! Thank you for your comment. This van is great for 2-3 days for me because I don’t use the restroom, but I really love the ability to park and go anywhere.

  • @angie101972
    @angie101972 Місяць тому +2

    Those cost around 200k then you added upgrades. Just to sell after 1.5 years. You took too much stuff. You have to downsize first. I guess you have money to waste! You definitely had one hell of a van!

    Hi Seryen, No I won`t switch to that kind of life style. I think Van life would be suitable when things on this earth get to the point where is no longer possible to live in houses up in the country or in urban areas, for example due to extreme conditions like when wars or natural disaters doesn`t allow it anymore. I am sure you invested a lot of money in your Van, and I just think is not worth it, great video, my best wishes to you for whatever is coming next to your life, rgs

      Hello Edgar, thank you for your comment.
      We loved the freedom that van life gave us, the thrill of exploring new places and waking up to a fresh view every day. It felt like a dream come true! But over time, the limited space made it challenging for me to feel truly comfortable living in it full-time.
