I love how she's so open and honest about these companies lol.
Also, composting toilets are definitely the way to go. No smell, no mess, no problem.
Unless you are older and on certain medications that increase the smell of your feces, then composting toilets aren't helpful...... Just keeping it real. Even with the liquid part separated from the solids. Spoke with several composting channels and/or composting toilet channels and they all said, you would have to stop taking the meds, but they are life saving meds...... So much for composting toilet...... The things you don't get to hear about before you get one.....
Idk what this has to do with medication.. But everyone I've talked to that uses composting toilets say they have little to no smell at all. I've seen the cleaning and emptying process and it's nowhere near as nasty as what's demonstrated in this video.
Liz said she has to handle the toilet every few days if I recall. People with composting toilets sometimes go over a month without emptying them with no problem. I'll take that over this mini porta potty any day.
This is exactly why I made the comment. (NOBODY TELLS YOU) there are certain issues you might have to deal with when using these systems. I was just trying to be helpful.
@@moovingon6868 have You tried a larger evacuation fan?
Thank-you so much for your suggestion, J.G. Conumdrum. I will try to incorporate that into my setup.
For some reason, I really like this "what went wrong" video better than an "everything is roses" video. Thumbs up.
@rustytr What the Hell you talking about
I actually appreciate this too. I really want a rent free life, but I want an honest view of the lifestyle
I totally appreciate this video, Better to be given some of the 'Cons' of Van life then find out the hard way on the road - I love a lot of these videos, but they do give more of the 'coolness' then what can go wrong, seems no one wants to talk about how things can go wrong and share their experiences on both sides of the coin. Wish more had, mainly for the solo women going out there thinking that this will be easy peasy and then have to call their family and cry!
See this seems more realistic of what MY van life would be like.. lmaaaoooo
I'd be wearing a gas mask and some heavy duty cleaning gloves for that toilet part lol
Right.
Exactly. I was surprised by the fact that she wasn't wearing either of those items considering she was dumping waste matter and using disinfecting chemicals.
i would have a whole hazmat suit lmaooo
Hazmat suit...
Facts
Very few people can still look like a super model while dumping a toilet tank. Hey maybe you will be scouted to model by Compost Toilet magazine 😂
Generic White Bitch hahah- thank you so much!! Funniest comment I’ve read today! Keep us laughing 😊🙌🏻
Taylor Daniel Sciff YOU ARE NASTY 🤢
@ Taylor Daniel Sciff , whats the matter did you ask her out and got turned down? :-( and also you sir are why women become lesbians!! Oh wait just looked at your profile pic....IT SCREAMED IMA DOUCHE!!!! pity and whats with the Herman Munster grin? It looks like your mouth is too big for that face..yeachhh
@Taylor Daniel Sciff Sounds like somebody has mommy issues!
Taylor Daniel Sciff : Sounds like you have a porta potty retention issue.
That's a baby black tank!
Also, try *spraying* a *small* amount of undiluted white vinegar in the bowl of your toilet after peeing. This should help to minimize, if not completely eliminate, any odor from urine.
Thanks so much for sharing you experiences.
John, thank you for this suggestion! I am going to try this. I appreciate you
@@WildbytheMile ive also heard sprinkling sawdust in stops odours 😊
Great advise and I can confirm it works too.
I was JUST going to say vinegar! Nuthin like a little piss n vinegar combo. I barely smell anything. But I have a luggable Loo and I dump often and I separate my solids.
John Coloe: What type of toilet do you think is best for a van? (Just one female will be living in it!) I was considering the Nature's Head...if I can afford it. If not, maybe just some type of cassette toilet. I would appreciate your advice...thanks.
OMG I love you! You're my hero! I am about to go through a divorce and am looking at living the van life so I can live near the ocean. Looking forward to watching all your videos!
You go girl !!👍😘
@Bobon Meiknob are you saying that she is mentally ill for wanting to live in a van.😃😆
@Bobon Meiknob You don't even know her, so making such assumptions is ridiculous and stupid of you.
ahh...that's a nice comment:)
I don't want say there is anything wrong with living in a van. But I have heard that ocean front sites are difficult to come by except for full paid RV parks. You can stay the day...
I did this for 9 month straight and was the best time of my life.
why "did"? What happens?
crazy glue for the key my dear, small drop on a tooth pick, let it dry, pull t out slowly. if by chance you mess it up and it stick to the side of the lock. Burn it with a lighter.
I have an accident pron wife and Ive done this 5 times to date lol
Good luck
A paperclip is stronger than wood
You can also take a hack saw blade and grind it and use the teeth to pull the broken off key. You have to grind it so that it fits in the lock.
@@chinlaiyo9565 I can get a paperclip by stealing it from the office, where can I get carbon fiber nano tubes? walmart? only $50 each?
@@chinlaiyo9565 ok let me have your credit card information
genius
Sometimes I think I would love to live In a van. But then I see videos like this
The reality of van life :)
She's keepin' it real!
Mattay the Pattay Dry camping on the street or at Walmart in the cities isn't so glamorous either - best to minimize your nites in the cities. Cali has great (but expensive) state parks. The one on the beach bluff in North County San Diego is killer.
🇨🇦 VIKING VAN MAN ! I know it's not all roses but when you live in a apartment or a house you still have your problems there too ! Not to mention the huge expenses ! and you still have to clean the toilet and you still have to do the dishes and you still have to do repairs on the house and you pay more to do it all just my point of view
That's why IF I did go smaller it would be a 24' RV. Being a truck driver I have no problems getting the 31' RV into any parking spot and a 24' would be no problem at all just the height might be a problem in a few places.
BUT the only problem with a 24' is having to make the bed up like you do in a van! I prefer to just lay down on a regular bed even if it's only 38" wide as I've slept on them for 33 years in a truck! Now a murphy would be just fine!
Blue Sky's and Safe Journeys!
I love these rare super honest videos on van life. They help others not feel like a failure when something goes wrong. It's just part of this lifestyle.
Thank you for the real issues with Van life! Nothing will be a breeze, nice to prepare mentally and financially! I still looking forward to this new way of living!! Thank you!
Thank you for showing the dump process something most UA-camrs don't share.
Thank you for watching and sharing your kind feedback :)
don't take this for gospel...this is the worst of all choices for portable toilets.
Buy distilled vinegar at Costco $3.99 for 2 gallons. It will clean everything, fridge, floor, bathroom etc..
thank you for this advice!
yes! and add a few drops of your fav essential oil to it- mine is sweet orange.
really?
Vinegar is the best for cleaning I haven't tried adding essential oils but I will now thanks
I use cleaning vinegar I works great
You did not sensor that toilet cleaning scene enough 😂
I have to say with the beginning of this episode, you give a quick run through of what CAN go wrong! You do not hold nothing back and you give a lot of HELPFUL Tips, and place to go! Thank you!
I consider this my homework of what not to do. Thank you for your efforts and strong will.
That’s how I was taught to wash dishes. Rinse together first. Turn off water to conserve water.
Wash cups first to avoid scent from plates and bowls, especially plastic Tupperware. They usually need to be washed twice. I prefer glass now anyways.
Doing all this solo. Hats down. Less headache. Less worries. Clean cook travel when you feel. Owe no one anything. Be discreet. Enjoy you. Save and expand your money for when you are ready for change.
Even when I live in a one or two bedroom apartment. At times, I still mop on hands and knees. Used too much water and soap. Pour small amount of diluted Fabuloso all that’s needed.
I love small space depending on the design and how it’s build.
She reminds of myself in a way but I’d dump the toilet daily. Simple type of bucket seat with bags. Trash the bags daily. Seems quick and cleaner.
Yes there was a was a time i couldn't get ahold to my landlord for a week to fix my plumbing. So i got lots of plastic grocery bags secured them under my toilet seat and deposited them in the outside garbage No Smell
I listened to Outkast after watching this video 😂😂😂 thanks
At 05:36 I saw mold growing under the green rubber seal on the plastic snap top lid for your glass dish. I have the same set from Costco and the seal can be removed for cleaning by using a knife to gently lift it out of the groove.
One more thing: Never use that much water to clean the floor of an RV. Water is the biggest enemy and you almost want to dry clean only with a lightly dampened rag.
Swiffers are awesome.
Fairgrounds usually have a dump station that you can use free of charge. This is an often underutilized & overlooked resource. Also, if you purchase a recreational pass for the state you travel in the most you can often use the dump stations & fill your fresh water tank for free at State parks. White vinegar in a spray bottle is a great way to clean your dishes. It is a natural disinfectant & adds shine & sparkle to your dinnerware while conserving water. Additionally, a $5 weed sprayer from Walmart makes a great portable shower! I hope this info is helpful.
Get a Swiffer Wet mop for the floors, it's super easy!
FINALLY SOMEONE IS SHOWING WHAT TO DO WITH THEIR TOILET! Thanks Liz!
I am only 4 years old but this video inspires me to set my goals higher and get a Van as soon as humanly possible. I'm tired of being chained down to these societal norms. Plus I'll be 5 soon and I need to make some things finally happen!
Even though it was blurred out, I still gagged.
missMURDA90
Me too!😂🤮
I almost never get disgusted or nauseous by anything🎉👏😏
My 1st chore would be to dump the tank and then cleaning around as I disinfect everything! LOL...
You have such a wonderful attitude and demeanour! You remind me of a much younger version of my Grandma, and she is one of the happiest, most friendly people that I know. :)
And... I love you. You rock! Love watching your informative videos! Keep up the good work!
This video was posted on my birthday 🖤! I’m a new subscriber now
That's amazing!!!😞
You construct your videos so well. So organized. I Love your videos!
thank you
Expectation: "wild" life.
Reality: showering in gyms.
@AsHLiegH-MaRie HoPe Besides, you can get a workout along with your shower.
Doesn't sound so bad. Good times.
Depends on the build
and work in Walmart )
This made me burst out laughing what a real van life video
It is so refreshing to see someone show the real world of van life and not just the posed, photoshopped one. Thanks for being real and hey, you really look beautiful in that outfit. Hope you find the work/life balance you need for happiness.
Stephen, I appreciate you! Thank you for seeing this. My entire objective is to be real and show my humanness ... even if that means breaking lots of things :)
Take a look at the Air Head Composting Toilet, you will need it vented to the outside and an electric supply, but you can carry in the pee container into any restroom and dump. The compost can stay for one person two to three weeks. There is no smell and no more dump stations. You only have to buy the medium for the compost, and cleaning supplies, very easy. AH company told me their's can be in a wet area, has seals, but be careful to not get the fan motor wet. Also the AH is slimmer to fit smaller spaces.
Never heard of that brand, but it looks almost identical to Nature's Head and it's also made in the USA. Same price as Nature's Head too. Good to see some healthy competition in that market.
bucket is much better..with a good bag ...no poo hauling
Same technique for dishes! Saves water, especially when you’re in a van, important! Good tips
Your so brave to live the van life !! I'm in awe of you! & GORGEOUS to boot🤗
Put essential oil drops in your fresh toilet water to help with the smell. When you flush your water will have a hint of whichever oil you choose. I like lemon or citrus scent. We also use disposable gloves when we dump since you touch hoses and knobs where others have also used...think past explosive poop cans. I like how detailed your videos are. Hope things get better and you don’t have anymore things that break on you. God bless 😊
God bless you Barbara! Thank you for your advice :)
That background though omg!!! I haven’t seen the comment so “sh*tters full” 🤣
I appreciate your transparency that's really really good👌🏾🙏🏾 all the best I like the fact that you are not scared to deal with things
Oh sweetheart! Hugs! All I can do is send hugs!
OK, thanks for reassuring me, we all have those days when it just loads on!
I think we all have disasters, whether it's a home, car, caravan, campervan or motorhome.
I too have had my thetford toilet leak, unknownly due the incline of van .....under the bed!
Eeew what a smell, luckily only 1's but a still what a message, had to take everything stored, rinse wash & dry.
At the same time I had a puddle of water in the corridor.....the water pump had sprung a miniscule leak that seeped water.
I was so fortunate a local caravan/RV store had the exact same model and I swapped it out myself.
I missed out on an awesome hike that day, due to cleaning & repaires.
(Who would design the toilet cannister cavity to have a gap directly into vehicle?
Why was it not a sealed space that drained outside...ggrrr.)
I have also lost the vent cover to my shower/toilet roof.
These repairs I was forced to make myself as no one wanted to listen to me.
But hey, has made me stronger & wiser.
I now have the confidence to build my own camper van.
That's life!
Thank you for sharing your real life hurdles too! I am glad to hear you are stronger on the other side :)
I really love all these camera angles!!
I could smell the toilet from the UK and nearly gagged, but thank you for being real about this way of travel!
Your optimism is a blessing
After 19 years with a ports potty I got a nature's head. It's amazing and so much nicer
I may switch to that toilet :) Thank you for letting me know your satisfaction!
@Somewhere Down The Road that's a one time payment you can save up for, not a bill.
I respect you so much there is absolutely no way i would have the patience to do all those things once a week ahaha
Nico💖
Truly a fountain of information! Thank you for sharing the hoesty of travelling and myndae cleaning. I subbed because you are so open and seem very honest. Safe travels!
I'm in love with this lady. She's just so genuine.
If your looking for a portable shower, you could buy a new weed/pesticide sprayer. You pump it up and it flows out of the hose. Some people like to attach a kitchen sprayer to the end of it for easier water distribution.
Taylor, great idea! I see surfers do this
That's a great idea. I wonder if you just leave it sit out in the sun... would that heat up the water? Probably would. Wonder how long it would take?
Hmm... Something to experiment with...
or maybe an submersion aquatic heater, maybe to heat it?
@Charlotte Monger:
But remember, ANY form of heater is going to require power.
Propane.
Electricity.
Something.
That is why I was wondering if just sitting it out in the sun would work, so you don't need any other power source to heat the water.
Painting it black with, for plastic paint, works to make it heat water faster.
Natures head composed toilet is what you need and have it in my van and boat best investment in travel yet 🙂 enjoying your channel keep them coming.
Just watched video a few months late but wanted to say how exciting and fun !!!!
Thanks for sharing

You’re so gorgeous and inspiring! You also look like Reese Witherspoon. New fan and possibly future bus lifer
Lookin real good. Respectfully speaking.I'm a trucker you should use truckstops they have everything.
Gym about 30 a month,
Truck stop 10 dollarish everytime bc not buying 50 gallons of diesel.
Wow, watching U in your traveling van life is so exciting & adventurist. U get 2 b with the outdoors, but yet b w/ civilization when U need 2 shower, do laundry, or dump your toilet (yeck). Thx 4 sharing on the internet. Keep on traveling & video recording your exciting lifestyles.
You rock girl..I love the way you are ..very practical and natural😊
She’s living an extraordinary life. I envy her
Hey Liz (Wild by the Mile)!!! CONGRATULATIONS on the anniversary in the van. You got so many unlucky mishaps right behind each other so you should be okay for a loooooooong time. Couldn't you just have used that large body of water behind you [3:35] to wash in? Looks like you are having a real-life adventure so just take it all in and count it all joy (for the experiences). Be Careful Out There and THANK YOU for sharing.
I lived in a bread truck conversion for 3 years back in the 60's, and to this day every time I flush the toilet in my home I have a greater appreciation for modern plumbing. In other words, my "black water tank size" is pretty much infinite, and the well provides a fresh water capacity of millions of gallons, pretty amazing when you think about it. Van life gave me a greater appreciation of things most home dwellers take for granted is my point.
You can go to a camping store and get a sun shower. It’s a sturdy plastic bag with a clear top side and a black bottom side, and a little hose/nozzle. You can leave it filled with cold water in the sun to heat, or you can just fill it with warm water. It’s inexpensive and when it gives out you can just replace it. There’s no pump, so you have to have a way to hang it and use gravity as your pump, but that’s really not hard. Propping it on the top of your van would probably do. And there really nothing to break that way. You can always sit or stoop over to do your hair if you’re tall.
You make quality videos! Keep it up.
“Limited lifetime warranty ” is an oxymoron LMAO
Had a warranty on my new ford , and after three visits I took a copy of the lemon law and asked them for my money back. All of a sudden they remembered a technical bulletin they "just got in" . My car was ready, and fixed in ten minutes!
I think I just found my new go to channel, you've been in it for a year, I'm thinking a video per week give or take.. I should be caught up in a week or two! Lol. You have this down to a science girl. Good job, & have fun! :)
If you have a water tank, you can get this hanging “solar shower” and you fill it with water and hang it outside or in sunlight and it gets hot and you use the hose and nozzle to spray on yourself or pour on yourself
I used to have state farm. Those folks are crooks. Like your idea of house and home in a travel van. Lots of great spots here in Wyoming to camp free.
Hey girl how are you doing I hope you are doing well thank you for the video you answered a question I had for a long time and was getting rid of the smelly stuff thanks for sharing God bless and be carefully out there👍😁
Hello, and welcome to van life. It’s always one step at a time. Shower issue, Walmart sells a 5 gallon black shower bag! No moving parts no power necessarily. Gravity fed works great. Personal recommendation buy two bags,Fill bags wherever convenient and let them sit out in the sun will get surprisingly hot. Easy on off valve right by the showerhead my wife and daughter were able to shower with one 5 gallon bag each, and then showered just like you do your dishes. Another great thing about the shower bags is if your water tank is empty or low Bring one home and you’re able to do your dishes in hot water from solar power
Pourable and composting toilets, they are a very expensive joke a bad joke that is! 5 gallon bucket with the toilet seat mounted plastic trash bag with maybe two or 3 cups of Kitty litter dispose of waste in plastic bag as soon as possible! This will cut down on poop and P accidents! Wish you all the bus who knows maybe one day we will meet on the road 👍
I would suggest trying to find a solar shower you could hand from the back of the van or a tree which is powered by gravity rather than a pump. I haven't used one but my cousin has and they said it worked well.
Praying that your Safe in where ever you find yourself.
Yep, yep. This is what #vanlife is like...yeo, dumping the tank is my LEAST favorite chore...i could almost smell your tank from here 🤣
gross
You are so right! Thanks for watching :)
CoolCat Carolena I can go 4 weeks in my 24 ft Class C. Usually do it when camping.
Dump more often in warm weather and use twice the measure of chemical...and you will never have a smell. Never. l've lived in my trailer for well over a year now and hand on heart have never had a bad smell coming from my cassette toilet....
I
Just came to your channel today. Wow. That is an awesome life. Great content!
here is a tip we used to do when traveling on the road with the circus. Wear those rubber disposable gloves when dealing with the toilet or dumping the grey and blackwater. . Also wear disposable gloves when changing the oil or any event that is dirty or filthy. When finished throw the gloves away. It is almost impossible to get the smell of black water off your hands. Wear disposable gloves.
You kinda look and sound like Reese Witherspoon, not gonna like I thought you were her for a few minutes. Loved the video! Newly subscribed.
That's great because I also thought she looked like Reese, when she was sitting on the couch!
thought the same thhing lol
Well, at least one person can be found that follow's the rules for disposal of waste. Here in So Cal we have lots of homeless people who live in Old RV's and they dump human waste right into the gutter/sewer off the side of the road. (I know, Christmas vacation, shitter was Full) Gross doesn't even close enough for words. Informative video.
Android Arkitecht Homeless in San Francisco sleep and poop on the sidewalks. The poor tech millionaires paying $4,000/mo rent for small apt have to step over it.
I like the fact that by time u get to know how to do the repairs by urself, nd u can manage ur own thing.👏💞💓
This is an inspiration to never be lazy.
A quick tip: cemetery’s usually have hoses/water available to the public if you need to fill up your tank in an emergency.
good one
Be very careful at burning man... Know the people you hang with personally before/outside of burning man... Try not to party with people you just meant there at burning man... Most of all stay sober and be aware of what's going on around you....
Bobby Baldeagle following your advice, makes me wonder why the hell I would want to go to burning man 🤔 I thought the whole point was to get off your head and go Wild? That's what my friends do when they're there, otherwise they would go to a normal gig!
Bobby Baldeagle Great advice! 👌
thank you Bobby!! Great advice! I really appreciate you watching out for me :)
Wild by the Mile I guess I have no limits! lol! Enjoy burning man. From friends who have been, it’s worth reading up before you go so you are prepared to have an open mind for whatever might happen. It’s the burning man for a reason. It’s not a tea party. And make sure you get a bike before you go in. You can donate it when you leave to kids or people who would be highly grateful for it and without the bike, you’ll struggle to get around.
Just one point on burning man.
Don't accept any open drinks and be careful when you have one don't leave it unattended for a minute. It's sad to have to give this advice out but like everything it's changed since it's inception. People are not as nice as they once were. But I know you are a smart woman and follow your gut.
Have a great time and happy travels.
Beeps.
Not sure just how PC it is, but when my wife and I were living on the road we had a toilet like yours. I had no issues dumping it into a Porta Jon. There is no substitute for real indoor plumbing, and if you are living in a van or RV you really don't want gray and black water sloshing around. It just gets nastier every day. Just found your channel and am super impressed with it, but as a man, I could never keep anything as clean as you do! I really REALLY miss living on the road and all over the country and hope to get back out in my older T1N Sprinter soon.
Have you thought about looking into a compost toilet? You won't have to "dump" it as often and the soil etc helps to decompose the waste thus minimizing the smell. Plus it's more environmentally friendly.
I think this is your best video....so real......not the kayaking ....hiking....biking and watching sunsets in beautiful places. I live in Chicagoland area and deal with people that sell you things and don't want to back up their products is my pet peeve.
Mark, thank you for noticing! I agree with you 100 percent
Just watched a video from Creativity RV and she has a composting toilet that does not smell. Her tip is you have to keep liquid separated from solids and use a composting medium.
The best move is to just take a dump out the window as you drive. It takes practice but you can get the hang of it
haha- that would definitely be video worthy
the bucket thing is the best way !who needs to haul poo !
There’s an easy way u can DIY take out the dent- boil some water and wait it for it to cool down a little, and then pour it over the dent so the metal ‘softens’. Then just suction it out with one of those toilet suction things (I don’t know) 😂 I’ve seen this done before by my dad which works pretty well, butttt just in case u don’t want anything bad happening probably don’t do it. Just a suggestion for the future
Ha you convinced me NO TOILET! :) I had mostly already decided that after owning an RV I always had the family go in the out houses because I really detested the dumping job. I do recognize it is much easier for guys to go that route.
You really should try Swiffer. And, a composting toilet, you should do some reading on it. Good video by the way.
thank you very much :)
Like a good neighbor, Statefarm aint there.

Have you ever thought about getting a composting toilet? It separates the liquids form the solids, they flow into two separate tanks and it reduces the oder and is much easier to clean and empty. Just a thought.
I love the “laugh” at 7:07 😂
Nature's Head Composting Toilet.
Research it. The channel *Gone With The Wynns* has the best reviews on it. I have a Nature's Head Composting Toilet. It's not gross at all. And for one person, you only have to change the compost about once every 90 days.
Will be the best investment you have made into the van. Trust me.
Even after you meet your new 6'2" boyfriend at Burning Man, who won't fit in your bed, he will only increase your compost dumps to once every 45 days.
She's Right!!! w.w.
Change the compost? Are there compost-changing groups or a sort of change-community to enable compost swaps without being forced to constantly drive towards distant changing opportunities ...?
Thanks Eric!
hahaha!! I just read the rest of your comment --- Oh my gosh! laughing so hard. I hope I meet this 6'2" man you speak of. You will have to tell him all about how he will need his own van.
Wait. What? Why is it _my_ responsibility to tell him that? That's on YOU, kiddo.
Your new man won't need his own van. Just tow a red cargo trailer, paint "The Dog House" on the side, and let him live in there.
I love that shirt!
Two hints...
1: You can get free water at basically any decent truck stop when you pull around back to the truck lanes. Since you have a sprinter, you need diesel anyway,making topping off with water every time you fuel up a no brainer.
You might have to bring your own short piece of hose, they may have a spigot but the hose may not be there.
2: get a gallon jug of Odoban from Sam's,Costco or Amazon.
OdoBan Disinfectant Odor Eliminator and All Purpose Cleaner Concentrate, 1 Gal, Original Eucalyptus www.amazon.com/dp/B06X6LVKKX/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_WFkrCbNV65ACE
This stuff is awesome at keeping down an odor… It kills mold and viruses and can be used in laundry as well as on hard surfaces. You could put some in the black water tank of your toilet to keep it from getting stinky.
Many many uses...
My favorite van person!
young lady, you are making a mistake putting all that water and soap on your floor. That's too much. just a damp rag will be sufficient. one day you will see your floors ruined.
BIG JOE 245 It does seem excessive. How about a Swifer or plug-in steam mop?
@@Velo1010 swiffers leave buildup that gets sticky and grey. It's awful
I love the idea of this... Question.. Can you break down about how much you pay out of pocket per month ??
Lori, great idea! I will try and make this a future video. Thank you for letting me know what you want to see :)
Real talk. Thanks for sharing these practical realities
Thank you for the video Liz. My wife and I are going to buy and convert a van next year to travel more and work less (they way we all should be doing, lol). I am looking forward to following you on the rest of your blogs.
I would love to follow you. Dont do Instagram though. But i can help with the broken key. Insert a flat blade tip of a screwdriver into the slot of the “ key way” entry. It should turn since it seems the working portion of the key is all in its place. Stop where you would normally pull the key out. Then take a sharp pointy tip of a knife, a pocket knife. Press the point in and on the broke key and carefully pry out the broken key it should remove as you pry it. Hope that helps.
Tony, thank you thank you thank you! I will try this. I was hoping for someone like you to leave information on how to fix the bike rack.
Wild by the Mile
My pleasure. 😉
Wild by the Mile
Also while prying key out dont let the plug turn, if it turns at all or itll never come out. Must be in the starting position. So probably at 12:00 or 6:00.🕕🕧
Amazon takes a big cut out of every sale if they are storing the items for the sellers. That's how Amazon can do prime shipping for a lot of items. Probably why they wanted you to buy directly from them. Never trust that line again. Amazon had good return policies and it doesnt have anything to do with the seller if it's within the return time frame.
You are exactly right! Thank you for this. That is the lesson I learned from this experience :)
You should switch to a separating, composting toilet. That's what I use. The solid waste goes into a bag with coco-core or similar biodegradable all natural, composting materials, the liquid goes into a different tank. Dumping then is so much easier and cheaper. The solid waste goes into the garbage and the liquid gets poured into a toilet and flushed. Also, after you go each time a little water mixed with vinegar in a spray bottle rinses out the separator and takes the smell with it. So much easier than what you have. You can spend a grand on a natures head composting toilet, OR make one yourself. So much easier!
