Holy moly, the dudes came from Ukraine to help you guys! That is some serious diplomatic relationship. Ukranians helping Americans in South America.
Love this! United Nations!!!
Thanks for sharing all your must haves. Snow, I just want to say that you are looking so good and healthy!! Your doctors will be so happy to know how well you have taken charge of your health.
Thank you! 😊😊😊😊😊
Snow must have nerves of steel knowing what Curt gets up to in his adventuring x
Loved this video! We've had those fans for over a year. They're awesome! Snow, you have certainly trimmed down! Seeing that old footage really shows off how much determination you've had to get and stay healthy! A great role model for all of us.
Enjoyed this even though I'm not a vanlifer. Oh - the dresses! Bookmarked😄
Snow, that older footage really demonstrates your commitment to becoming as healthy as possible and - you look fabulous! So proud of your accomplishments!
Wow you both have gotten into some great shape. When Curt was climbing that mountain, I was so afraid! Any little slip and gone especially since he had already hiked so far. I had to look away but that camera gave such a beautiful view while he was doing that not safe thing. Snow - believe it or not, I buy dresses with that exact same material at Family Dollar. I have had these for over 5 years with no piling, no wrinkles. Love taking them on vacay since I can just roll them and go.
Snow and Curt , thank you so much. Looking forward to seeing your trip continuing in EU , etc. we will be shipping our 144 - 4x4 sprinter to UK spring of 2025. I’m fitting it out as we speak it’s a 2022 with 200 miles on the clock. Our plan is a multi year tour of all the EU , Uk , Balkans, Eastern Europe, turkey, Georgia, Armenia, Azerbaijani and hopefully most of the Stan’s.we will also do North Africa as well. Definitely following your lead on slow travel. Maybe our paths will cross. Keep up the great work you do. Kevin
Thank you Snow and Curt for some insight into how you manage to keep everything so simple and clean . All your ideas I am going to use pretty much all your ideas because this is the answer to most everything that needed revision in our little Sun Crest. Thank you two sooo much. See you next time.❤
haha, love your pun, "they made the cut." Thanks for the great video; found it very informative.
Awesome, thank you!
I always get amazed on how much both of you lost weight since the start of the jorney.

GORgeous cat! Thx for the list!
Thanks for watching!
What a lovely van. I love my Yeti cup too! My personal lifesaver item in my van is my HomeFi hotspot. I can travel all around the U.S. and work remotely with it, it also fits in my pocket!
I got the hiking poles after I saw them on your channel. Best thing I have ever done for my arthritic knees. They allow me to feel more stable when I go for walks.
Aguardamos vocês voltarem ao Brasil. Visite a cidade de Santos no litoral de São Paulo. Itatiaia, Cunha, São Bento do Sapucaí. A região da Serra da Mantiqueira que divide os Estados de São Paulo, Minas Gerais e Rio de Janeiro é um lugar lindíssimo e vocês precisam conhecer.
Yesss! Those pots/skillets from amazon are perfect! And I love your style with the dresses.
Thank you so much!!
👍🤩💝Awesome items. Thank you.
You are so welcome!
I have been needing new knives but I hate to do the research! Thanks for doing it for me. Bought those off your link. Watching your videos I have seen what a great job you do with research, so when you said you had researched AND you’ve been using them for so long I knew these were the knives.
You will love them!
Such a great video! Thanks for all the tips and resources. We’re counting down to the end of next year when we will finally start traveling full time in our van!
Get ready for the most amazing journey 😄
Awesome guys, 8 months into our N American tour and a tick for everything except the photographic equipment (not YouTubing) and not needed a head torch. Here’s one for your European trip, we only took cabin bags on the plane and they have been in the way in our camper, go for ones that collapse completely or donate to a charity shop when you arrive!
Two of our suitcases are actually our waterproof pelican storage boxes for our tools and spare parts! The other suitcases will get donated pretty quick! Same thing with the pet crates 😊
Thank you so much for showing us these products. ❤
Oh wow, can see you will be so nervous. Really hope the van travels well.
I’m so happy to see you and your family are doing good ! Stay safe and travel well .
Thank you so much!
Wow! This is all just amazing information- thoroughly love the camera info!!! Will be checking this all out to use on my up and coming spring Vacation!!! Thank you thank you thank you for sharing this with me! This will save me hours of searching!!!! Now to start saving up !!!!!!! Blessings, Jojo
Great info. Snow boy have you changed over the years.
Thank you ... this is a great video, especially with Christmas just around the corner. 😀
Good morning Snow and Curt ☀️ awesome video! Thank you for the Snow and Curt approved list. Definitely going to check out the last camera, it takes some amazing shots and angles. Looking forward to seeing what you two get up to next. Stay safe, 🤗🇨🇦
It's a great camera!!
I love ALL your recommendations, and I have been a vanlifer for 4 years. If I could make a small suggestion to go along with the tow strap: soft shackles. Versatile for accessing way more access points on the vehicle, lightweight, easy to store and don't "clank".
Parabéns Kart Esnol sempre acompanhando vocês aguardamos de volta 🇧🇷🙏🙏🙏
Wow! Thanks
Something strange my stepdad used to do, who just died recently, he had a big a&w mug and would fill it with half black coffee and half water every morning. I always thought why would he drink coffee that way, but when you wake up you're always dehydrated so it's kind of smart I guess lol
GREAT Advice guys thank you!! Excellent video!
Thanks,so much🎉 You two are awesome 😮. I enjoyed this video so much.
Thank you!!!
Thanks for taking the time to share all of this wonderful information, been watching you guys for years. Richard, Palatka Florida (90 minutes north of Orlando)
This was an excellent video, very helpful and came at the right time for me. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks!
Wow, thank you so much
❤️❤️❤️
Great advice lovely couple & being well prepared is essential plus knowing this is from your experiences! Those walking sticks are very helpful plus hiking boots! Great to see you both relaxing in AirBnB & it’s wonderful to have a rest from driving! 💜💙🤗 when are you actually leaving for Europe & what is your first stop? 😊
Very valuable .
Thanks for sharing ❤
Thanks so much guys great tips. 😊👍🏽
Thanks for watching!
Sending good energy xxxx love you guys xx
A wonderfully perfect video! And now I've got a AZ store I can pop into AND toss a bit to you two on commission, which is a great way to do this, would make me happy to get the item and feel good about helping you two out so you can keep making great videos!
I am looking at those pans, but first thing is going to be that knife sharpener, I really need that! I want Snow's dresses too, but while I'm shrinking, I'm gonna have to shrink a bit more to do that! 😁
Thank you for all this!
Thank you thank you thank you, that is so helpful ❤️🍻☮️☺️🙏

Y’all have gotten to see some of the cutest little different animals I’ve never seen in my life. How stinking awesome..lol. I love it! Wow!?
You are so kind
@@SnowAndCurt thanks guys for letting us all tag along. It's been great.
Love your video. I saved it to put several of your items on my camping list! Thank you
Camping cookware will also be handy because they are a lot smaller, and are designed to nest into one another too. :)
Great info! Thanks. Those cameras are awesome. I do think that I will be getting some walking sticks very soon. 😉
Wow! Such great as t Christmas ideas. Thank you so much!
Glad you like them!
Love this video! Super helpful. Thank-you!
So glad!
Awesome 👏
You bet I enjoyed your video, thanks again,happy travels 😊, looking forward to the next one.
Glad you enjoyed it
That insta camera scared the crap out of me when you were climbing up those rocks/mountain, Curt! I'm not kidding! Yep, it was anxiety inducing! I was worried half to death! That camera is incredible.
Thank you for your list of favorite products. I'm not a van-lifer, but you did remind me I wanted a head lamp. I do have a walking stick for when I hike and love it. I can see why you have those... so helpful! And those little critters you filmed are so adorable. It's always fun to see what animals, sights and people you come across.
I'm looking forward to Europe.
Snow, you're looking so great (and I love your dresses too!). I'm so happy to have had the privilege to join you both on your travels! I bet I had almost as much fun as you have.... except I don't get to taste the food!
I love global knives. They are amazing.
We have the head lamp and the walking sticks. We don't leave home without them when traveling. I keep a set of the walking sticks in the truck for that unexpected walk on a park trail!
I have a set of those pans for my van and I love them. I store them in the microwave!
Great information. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Love the tips and also getting to see clips from the big stuck adventure and the critter paparazzi 😂. I bought walking sticks after seeing you guys use them. Very helpful
That is awesome!
Great info. I'm always amazed at the footage you get! ❤
Thank you!
Thanks for sharing the secrets of your comfortable lifestyle
My pleasure 😊
THANK YOU! Thank you, thank you, thank you! I'm just getting started on my Instagram journey and might be adding in some UA-cam eventually. I'm also considering doing a few epic-ish road trips. ALL this info is invaluable. THANK YOU! Also, all the best in all your travels. I found you when Snow started her heart journey and have stayed with you ever since. Curt, you're wonderful. Snow, you're inspiring. 💙💜
You are so welcome!
So happy you guys keep a channel so I can keep up with your adventures. 😊
Sending big hugs to you sweet Angel!

Great info.
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you for this video. I will put some of these in my Amazon basket. Like when people share the products they like.
You are so welcome!
I want that fan!
KITTEEEEHHH!!
Thanks for the tips. Good luck with the transfer of the van to Europe. The perfect people to stop to help you get out of the mud! If anyone knows about mud it’s Ukrainians!!!
Great ❤❤
Interesting 👏🏻😊
Great bunch of items!! I want that camera!!
Hari OM
Nice... cameras on my wish list! YAM xx
❤❤Thanks for all the info! Hope you guys and the kitties are OK in "real time" and back in your "tiny home" here in the old continent! See you wednesday!❤
Soon!!
@@SnowAndCurt Yaaayy!! 😊😊
Great video! I had commented recently about what great video quality and how I liked the footage where it showed from behind or out front. Now I get how you get that footage. Those are really good cameras, I've never seen anything like them before.
Awesome, thank you!
Well done.
Thanks John!
You look great Snow!
Oh thank you!
I could not agree with you more Curt. Dull knives are worthless. I have always used a manual sharpener and it works fine.
OMG I love you & this Vidio! Answering all those questions I have🎉🌹🌴 yep it's me❗You know I'm passing this video along for everyone to have the ability to view things that can make your life easier whether you're in a van or not. And definitely will be on order for my Christmas ideas for my family and friends.❤
You're the best!
Love the pots and pans. That’s a must have. How difficult is it to get your babies across the border? Snow you’re looking fantastic!
