⤈ WHO WE ARE ⤈
We are Philly and Keely and we live full time in our tiny home on wheels Martha. After building our DIY home in a Citroen Relay camper we spent a year living on the streets of London before quitting our jobs only to be met with lockdown. Then we took our van further than she had ever been before to the very beautiful Turkey. Enroute, we stopped off in Spain for a few weeks where we experienced every van lifers worst nightmare, we were robbed and they stole all valuables in our van. But then we were back on our feet, fully MOT’d and back on the road through Europe before we experienced another vanlife nightmare... our van caught fire!! After the trauma of that we had a massive change of plan and made our way to Japan. We enjoyed a three-month Japanese Adventure and then got back to Martha for some new European Adventures. After an incredible three-month Scottish road trip, we have now packed up our van and are heading to Australia for a new van life adventure!

You are paying rent to Bunnings by buying all of your materials there, so I think they would be happy with you. Such hard work, well done! I like the wood stain colour.
Yay so glad you like the stain! Yeah spending a small fortune in bunnings lmao
You two are a credit to your families, your age group and yersels. Well done, love the just get on with it attitude. One of the best YT Van channels, lots a love from near Glasgow. Hope the rest goes well. Rootin for ya
Aww thanks so much man, that's really lovely thing to say!
So proud of you. Keep up the good work. You are great encouragers for People to get out of. the boat and follow their dreams.😂🎉. Ps we are having a great time in Spain.
Hi you two great video can't believe you did all this work yourself you should be getting the supplies free for advertising Bunnings😊 You must be exhausted but it'll be worth it in the end. Love the tool improvisation cutting bread 🍞😅. Don't forget to rest as well. Really jealous of your weather. Clock changes here next week we get an extra hour. Yippee ❤
Thanks so much Dad ❤️❤️ let's video call soon please 🥰
Thanks Veronica ❤️❤️ bunnings sponsor would be epic haha
You two are something else for a young couple you blow my mind with your positive upbeat lets get on with it attitude id be so proud of you both if you were my son or daughter what a inspiration you two are sending ❤ from Scotland 🏴
That is such a lovely thing to say ❤️❤️ that warmed my wee heart
Meant every word loved watching when yous were in Scotland glad yous had a great time here as a parent of two adults around your age your parents brought up two beautiful people looking forward to following your journey through Australia ❤ again from Scotland 🏴
I like the dark on the roof. You keeping the sides lighter! If yes be a great contrast 😊💜💜
Thanks Chrissy 🥰🥰
Loving the dark wood, looks like coffee or chocolate
Oh yes, my two favourite things ahha
Imagine trying to do this in a B and Q car park here in the UK! ☹️ wouldn’t happen I imagine! Best of luck to you both…..I’m going to enjoy following along. Best wishes Julie 😊
Thanks so much Julie 🥰 yeah doubt we could live at B&Q haha
Wait...what? I've obviously missed a few of your videos and you're here in Australia??? I'm currently travelling around Australia in my vintage caravan and you know how totally absolutely wrapped I am that you're actually HERE??? 😮
Like where??? Please let's have a meet up somewhere . I'm currently cruising down the east coast towards Sydney (in Port Macquarie at the moment) and planning a full "lap around the block" so tell me where and when and OMG I'm just so super excited you're here! ❤
Yesssss we are here 🎉🎉🎉🎉 I was hoping we would cross paths at some point ❤️ message me on IG and I will send you our loose plan and see if they can overlap 🙏we are planning a half loop ll
I love the dark, makes it cozy and won't show any dirt. You guys are rockin it! I was wondering how you were powering things but then I saw the power station, which I'm guessing you charge that up from the van engine, is that how you do it? You probably don't get the knock because they see that you are a daily customer, so it's kind of like you're paying them rent for the space. Love the build so far and can't wait to see more. I call her, Martha's little cousin down under. Take care guys😎💌✌
Thanks so much, glad you love the dark. So far the power bank lasts a full week on charging our tools etc. We have friends who live in Melbourne who let us come charge it at theirs on the weekend, but it also comes with a solar panel we just haven't got that out yet. We could prob also take the power bank into a cafe of we didn't have friends living here. Cuz we edit in cafes and climbing gym so I'm sure we could charge it there if needed
What a load of work guys!!! Bunnings must be happy😄
Lmao good advertisement haha
Could you not get some lockable and water tight storage boxes for the roof rack? Doing well on the build, I rather like walnut colour myself. Looking forward to the progress over the next couple of weeks.
Yeah we were thinking we should prob try take advantage of the roof rack a bit more, but man roof rack boxes are expensive! Maybe try and wangle a sponsor haha
Awesome work you two. So good Bunnings are ok with you in the car park. I'm ok with the stained wood as I know you two will make it nice no matter what the colour. 😊
Thanks Wendee 🥰
Love the stain. I agree with Philly. The contrast is great. Xx😊
Thanks Jayne 🥰🥰🥰
Another amazingly entertaining video… and I love the stain! Well done!
So glad you like it 🥰
🇬🇧🦋🚐it’s your van your adventure colour is great .. both working so hard . Hats off to you both 🚐🦋🇬🇧
Thanks so much 🥰🥰
Good afternoon Philly and Keely you guys are amazing your really working hard can’t wait til your on the road stay safe see ya soon 😘🌺🌸🚐🐺
Thanks so much Linda❤️
The dark stain looks lovely! I think it will make the van feel more cozy and home-y! I like it. ❤❤
Yay thanks Amy 🥰
Wow guys, we genuinely watched this with PTSD from our 30 day Skoolie challenge in the USA BUT we can’t imagine living in the van at the same time… Impressed is an understatement.
Vlog quality is also SUPER high considering you’re working so hard, we genuinely both loved this video loads and are really excited for the rest of this series! Also- defo didn’t go too dark on the wood stain, that’s gonna be beaut! ❤️
Aww thanks so much guys! Yeah your skoolie build was insane, this van is defo a lot smaller which helps haha! We put so much love and energy into our vlogs, so really appreciate you saying that ❤️ ps. Philly defo jealous of all the epic tools you have on your Reno project right now, going amazing guys!
Wow guys, so impressed with your skills, work ethic and enthusiasm. Maybe you could start a business one day converting vans! That mattress looks like it’s going to take all the space though! Although it’s a good anti security device when rolled up in the front!
Yeah we will defo need to take a few cm off the width of the mattress lmao
When you showed how the mattress gets rolled up and shoved into the front seats, I just laughed at the situation. I really admire youse for putting yourselves all in to building this van out ASAP. Here's to Bunnings for not running you out! 🤞😬🤞
❤️❤️✌️😎 xx
Thanks Aaron, we are a pair of idiots eh 🤣
@@phillyandkeely nah, eedjits don't know what they're getting themselves into until they're knee deep, I would classify this more like stunt-performance vanlife-ing! 😁😁
😂😂😅😂😂 Nothing I love more than 2 people who don’t know how brilliant they are!❤
Hahaha thanks Cass ❤️
Fantastic job! Can you imagine doing that at a B&Q at home 😂
I remember doing Martha in B&q carpark in London, had to move every two hours lmao
Im open to having my mind changed on the dark stain!!! Keeleys commitment alone is persuasive enough! Love your energy guys xx
We will change your mind for sure 😜
I love the darker stain! I have seen a lot of whitewashed van builds because of the lighter color being more open, but I personally prefer the cozy cabin vibes. A little hobbit hole on wheels… Can’t wait to see it!
Yes cosy hobbit hole that's the plan lmao
Thanks guys, I love what your doing, good luck with the van, stay safe, looking forward to seeing your your next post ❤
Thanks so much Robert ❤️🙏
I love the dark cladding and the fact you are doing this build in the car park absolute genius move!
Thanks so much ❤️ saves on driving back and forth lmao
Love the dark wood and contrasts well against the white, just hope it doesn’t feel too dark when everything’s finished 😮. It will be fine . Great job you two little troopers , I’ll say it again , you’re bloody crazy and I love that 😊x
Thanks so much Harris 🥰 I love the dark too
Can't wait to see it all finished,it's going to be epic!!!
Thanks Deb 🥰 fingers crossed
Love the videos. Helps so much with my anxiety. I never leave the house and when I watch these videos it makes me happy watching your 2 happy souls and makes me want to go out and explore more sites and hills in Scotland. I stay in Fife in Scotland. Yous should of came to Fife when yous did the Scotland tour guys
Fife is on our itenerary for next time we are back in Scotland ❤️❤️
@@phillyandkeely the lomond Hill walks and Falkland Hill yous will like that walk guys.
Waves from NZ! I'm in your shoes Andy and really enjoy a dose of unbreakable positivity and fun from this channel, too. I'm on track to buy a van in March to live in so I can go out in the world because I'll can still be at home at the same time. Phil & Keely + Van life = therapy. ❤
@dib4152 yeah its a tuff thing anxiety especially having it really bad but videos like what these guys put up makes you miss life and makes you want to go out and about 😊 I love the videos and the editing and the fun they 2 have together ❤️
You're my new favourite couple on YT. Love your enthusiasm, it's contagious. Hope all continues to go well.
Wow thanks so much 🥰🥰 so do we haha
Brilliantly bonkers, and a super "how to" series on van building. Others take note, you dont have to be crazy to be brilliant, but it helps. A great video guys, you really are great fun. Remember, its only for a few weeks, so it doesn't have to get a first in Van build of the year competition, just make it workable, get a cheap gas stove, and put the moka pot on for coffee. You do know you wont want to get rid of this super little van when its over don't you? Cant wait to see the solar panels going on. Take care. 👋
Yeah will be sad to sell the wee van at the end, but making it well for it future owners too
You have both done a brilliant job so far and love the stain colour.
Thanks Mel ❤️
Oh guys it's keely and philly raw it's fantastic loving it, van coming on great, fair play to ye eating healthy while building and living in a van, philly is such a posative guy and ur so funny a match made in heaven, what birth signs are ye both? ❤❤❤
Haha thanks so much Liz 🥰 Both Taurus ❤️
You are both Taurus???? Wow 😂 I haved played with Astro my whole life.
You must butt heads a bit but one of must have a bit of a good chill sign in a chill area of your charts. You work so well together. Good Karma both. Otherwise you would be pushing each other accross a mountain somewhere 😂😂😂😂
You are an amazing couple and do incredibly video,s. You are incredibly gifted. Cant wait for each and every one . C,mon Sunday.
Ah I always love taurus folk, really good fun people they can get pissed off but usually say it and move on! Ah you can see you guys adore each other! I'd say if ye butt heads ye hug shortly afterwards 😂

Crikey... you 2 are amazing!!! Bunnings should be happy for you to park there with all the purchases you have made already... You work so well together and I can't wait to see the van next week... love the wood stain too.
Thanks so much Frederick 🥰🥰
You two are wonderful this video went so fast ❤

Brilliant well done what a team.. hard work and so funny.. the patter you have 😅 👍🍀
Thanks so much 🥰🥰
You guys are so funny without even realising it, very entertaining. Cant wait till next video. Michelle. X
Thanks so much Michelle 🥰🥰
I think you made a good choice. It will be easier to keep clean/won't mark as easily and it'll feel all snuggly inside. Noone wants to wake up to bright cladding in the morning. :D
Yeah the dark is making it very easy to stay in bed 🤣
Converting a van in the parking lot is next level van-life!
🥰 I think it's level down instead of level up though haha
Absolutely love watching the both of you work as a team. Great vlog guys, its what you pair love regards to the colour doesn't matter what anyone else think. You pair are amazing beautiful people xx
Aww thanks so much Tracey 🙏🥰 very kind of you to say
Brilliant philly and keely ❤ love the sawing keely beautiful people stay safe
Thanks so much Alan 🥰
You two are mad! But we we wouldn’t want you any other way. What an awesome job you are doing. Filming yourselves and editing VERY entertaining videos. Love you guys ❤❤❤
Thanks so much guys 🥰🥰
Another lovely film guys ❤ We can't work out why you haven't got 100,000 subscribers - such a joy on a Sunday afternoon as we sit in our van in Ireland outside a random church!!
Completely agree! I remember thinking the same thing about Kara and Nate when they were at about 10k subscribers (now at 3M!!)… hoping the same success for these two.❤❤❤
Aww thanks so much guys, hope you are enjoying Ireland ❤️
That would be epic 🤣 come on three million haha
too funny cutting bread with a saw....😂 good luck both🙂
Thanks so much Helen 🥰🥰
You are flying along it’s looking great. Can’t wait for the next instalment 😊
Thanks so much 🥰🥰
i forgot how much i like you guys! Keep up the good work and the goos vibrations you have for each other!
Aww thanks so much 🥰🥰🙏 appreciate that
You guys are hilarious i cant wait to see finished van!
Thanks so much Sammy ❤️
Now that what I call cutting the bread. ❤ you two are super philly and keely ❤ . I love the stane colour, it looks amazing ❤
🤣🤣
Class job. Impressed with Keely's sawing skills 😂
The cladding will look great, colour is fab.
Roll on next installment 😊
Not sure impressed is the word I would use 🤣🤣 thanks so much Janet ❤️
The van build is going well you should see if Bunnings would sponsor your next Vlog well done can't wait to see how far you get next week keep having fun 😀
Thanks Andrew, that would be awesome getting a Bunnings sponsor lmao. I did try before we left 🤣 apparently they don't do that type of thing haha
I am so enjoying you two. Definitely a perfect match🦋. You bring me so much joy😀😀😀😀
Aww thanks so much 🥰🥰 so lovely to hear
I think your doing great. I’m exhausted just watching you. 🥰
Thanks Priscilla ❤️
Loving the wood stain colour. Great for making you feel cosy and darker to help with sleep. Contrast between it and the white board is lovely.
Thanks so much 🥰 maybe it will help us sleep too much, we already struggle in the mornings haha
You guys are an inspiration to all van renovators who park up at Bunnings while doing a full conversion…whilst also living in the van!! Bravo 👏
Looks awesome so far. 👍🏽😁
Thanks so much Peter ❤️❤️ gotta make progress, every build is a quality of life upgrade haha
Love you guys ❤ have followed for a while as my daughter wants to do a van when she finished uni.
I'm so excited to follow this build and your adventure around Australia.
Your work ethic and partnership is awesome, well done 🎉
Thanks so much Sue 🥰
Absolutely love you guys and this is such an exciting adventure for you both and great for us to watch too. Thank you for sharing and watching all the way from NI. Keep up the great work guys! 🙌
Thanks so much Darren 🥰🥰 buzzing to get this van built and out exploring woop woop
Well done you two. Your incredible spirit of life is so inspiring. I know there are many off the video challenges but what you bring again is a true transparency that when you work hard all journey becomes a bit more easier. Your marriage will see so many, many years. Cheers🎉
Aww thanks so much 🥰🥰 yeah we are having a lot of fun, but defo hitting some hurdles this week, but challenges only make you stronger eh! 💪💪
Wow, impressive work and I was one of the go light instagramers but that walnut is looking good 👏👏. You guys have got guts taking on this type of project and nailing it (pardon the pun)! Well done and can’t wait to see the cladding. 🤩
Hahah thanks so much Marilynne 🥰
Your van is gonna look EPIC!
Thanks Jayne 🥰🥰
Brava,well done! So lovely to see you working together 🥰
Thanks so much Viktorija 🥰
🎉🎉🎉🎉 you both work so hard go you! and I like the dark cladding ❤
Thanks Mary ❤️❤️
Can’t wait to see the design for the van!
Yes us too 🤣
I love this new series, guys; well done to you both 🌟! Looking forward to the next instalment.
Thanks so much Jane ❤️❤️
I love the dark wood. Your doing great job!
Thanks Shelty 🥰🥰
I have a little Toyota just the same as that one. Imported to the UK from Japan. I've lived in it on and off for 9 years, sometimes alone with my dog and sometimes with my partner (we are both over 6ft!). They are amazing vans, absolutely bulletproof engines. I trust it more than my Sprinter!
Wow two people over six foot would defo be a squeeze in this van haha. Hopefully in hotter climates it's more indoor outdoor lifestyle, that's the goal anyway ❤️ happy to hear it's kept you going, really hope ours is good to us 💪
Awesome job! I think on Instagram I voted for white, but seeing the dark against the white panel, it looks great!
Thanks so much 🥰 yeah love the dark
Wow proud of you guys , well done
Thanks so much Neville 🥰
You should both be proud of what you've achieved in such a short time. It takes a maths genius to measure that wood correctly 😅 Can't wait to tune in next week to see how you're getting on.
ps love the dark wood
Yay glad you love it ❤️ my math genius may be great at calculus but not the greatest at mental arithmetic lmao
The cladding is beautiful. I love the colour. Dont listen to Instagram. You have a beautiful contrasting colour. Its your van, and its gorgeous. Go with your heart. Its amazing. Just like you. I can't wait until its finished. Love to you both. If I am ever lucky enough to get a van, I will stain it that colour. I love it. See you soon. Get some good rest and a small portable air con. 😂 ❤❤❤❤❤ Your van is lush. Well done.
Thanks so much Deb 🥰🥰 so glad you like the walnut woop woop
Bunnings and yourselves missed a trick..they could have sponsored you ..got you on Auz social media...and increased their sales to fellow travellers ! I am surprised you didn't end up on local news😆
That would have been epic 🤣🤣
Hi ya Philly and Keely the van looks good, I think you are going to need that insulation in the bush during summer , because we are 35 Deg tomorrow, and still spring 🌼.Take care and stay safe cheers from a very warm Qld.🌟🥵🌺🥰
Thanks Barry, it's flipping Baltic in Melbourne right now, I'm in thermals and a fleece aha
Keely!Kelly!! We are in Ireland!! Finally getting to experience what has been on our bucket list for 20+ years. We have rented a car for the first couple of days. Getting ourselves accustomed to driving on the other side. We pick up our campervan tomorrow. Can't wait!!
The walnut is fine.... absolutely fine👍 Nice contrast to the workings of the 50 spf...🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Love you guys and hope the conversion goes absolutely slick as a whistle for you. 🙏
We are headed west when we get our campervan tomorrow..er south and west.👍😁
Awesome hope you love Ireland!!! Walnut defo contrast to our pasty skin haha
Well done guys. Your working so hard. Gives me hope I can build a van on my drive if you can do this on a car park. Always a great watch. Take care ❤
Thanks so much 🥰 yes this is proof anyone can take on a van build haha
Great video! Honestly, what a challenge for you to take on! It looks all fun and games when we can watch it through a screen for 30 minutes but i can only imagine the day to day struggles are very hard. Credit to you both, cant wait to see more! Keep it up, Best of Luck! :)
Thanks so much guys 🥰🥰 definitely plenty of challenges, but we knew this coming in to it, we can do it if we stick to our timeline 💪 it will all be worth it to get on the open road
That's a bold choice of colour! A darker wood like that could be considered opulent and extravagant! Philly might need a smoking jacket and pipe to fit in! :d
What a brilliant word! It does feel quite luxury with the dark I have to say.
Absolutely superb guys! The reason that I have never done a van build myself is beer. You seem to be not getting sidetracked! There's a beer for you here in Townsville when you make it north!
No time for beer right now 🤣🤣 we will defo take one from you in Townsville though 🥰😜
Love your work guys. So much achieved in one week. Offer still stands. You need me, I'm there 😊
Thanks so much Nina 🙏
Your doing AMAZING!! WOW I am so impressed WOW it's looking so good it's going to be BEAUTIFUL much Love
Thanks so much Kathleen 🥰
That's real stealth and what a good job you are doing. Take care
Thanks Pamela 🥰
Awesome van Philly and Keeley.
Class wee van. You 2 are unreal so youz are. Take er handy peace ✌
Thanks so much Phil 🥰 so excited to get. The van done and hit the road
I really enjoyed this video. You guys have done so much so quickly! Loving the wood stain, it will be so cosy. Can't wait for the next video and to see more of your set up x
Thanks Joey, excited to get it all under way so we can hit the road wooop woop
Stain looks awesome. Keep the faith guys, you’re doing a great job. Always excited to see a new video. All the best from the UK
Thanks so much Paul 🥰 glad you like the stain
You are both such hard workers!! I can’t wait to see the walls and ceiling finished. I love the stain color. White would have been soooo boring! Keep up the good work!! I don’t know if I could do the HOT 🥵 Australian summer in a van. Just always remember to hydrate!! See you next week 🌴
Thanks so much Carina 🥰 yeah water water water
@@phillyandkeely THANK YOU 😊
Great work guys, don't know how you do it. You make me laugh every time I watch you, only the Irish.
Thanks so much Vicky 🥰🥰
We have done these coversions twice,,,but not whilst living in it!! It was bad enough on our drive. Invite Bunnings to come and see your progress, and share your channel on their website. Maybe you will pick up a sponsor...or 2..and some help from tradesmen. Takes me back to those converting days when working full time as a nurse. Good luck and hats of to you guys. Will send another donation when I get paid xxxx
That would be incredible getting a Bunnings sponsor lmao. I did email them but they said they don't do stuff like that ahha. Ideal conversion conditions would be in a lovely warehouse with all the tools, some day we will make that our reality lol
You two are off your rocker 😂😂😂but at least your giving us a good laugh. 👍 keep going can't wait for next time
Thanks so much Mark 🥰🥰
You guys are an inspiration, wow, amazing xx 👍
Thanks so much Simon 🥰
Hi Philly and Keely. Great that you’ve been able to use the car park of the DIY store to do your fit out. Hope you are able to keep the van cool enough. Are you going to be able to fit some sort of compact air conditioning unit or are you going to rely on the van’s engine AC? I know that EcoFlow do a compact one if you are able to get one to try? Take care. Nick
The ecoflow one would be epic, but it is massive, would have loved it but not practical for such a small van. We have got a wee one from evapolar that can just sit out, it's Usb powered so that will hopefully keep us cool on the warm days 🤞
This is like dejavous with @thesandvan, they just built their van and practically bought out Bunnings...Keely sawing wood 😂😂good luck guys. Great job so far. 😊❤x
Yeah bunnings is making a small fortune from us lmao 🤣
@@phillyandkeely They can't complain about you parking there then. Plus your giving them some great free promo. 🙂
I would definitely have chosen a clear colour, a light yellow for instance (sunny colours); but than I personally don't like marron or brown, so that's normal 😄that I wouldn't have chosen it. Light colours make appear the space bigger - but this is your decision and if you like it, than it's OK.
I'm admiring your hard work 👏👏👏- creating and living in the same tiny space must be quite hard - you are great 👍
Thanks so much Claudia 🥰 I love rich colours, hopefully I can convert you when you see it all in place hah
