    I bought a mini waffle maker and a mini snack maker for my camper van and they’re my favourite appliances when making waffles I use the one from the store which is already done you just add water and shake the bottle and you can get it in chocolate too

      A waffle maker? Genius! That is such a great idea- when we get our next rig we may have to purchase one for ourselves as well 😊 Thank you for the suggestion, we really do appreciate it and you watching!

    You have so much positivity it's contagious. Your videos were very influential when we were planning our Rt 66 trip, which we completed October last year and have been watching ever since. Keep travelling and stay free.

    Hello 👋🏼, going off topic here. When someone decides to do the digital nomad life, how did y’all go about getting Wi-Fi when you had to work on your computers in your micro van? This will be a big help to know. Ty 🤓✌🏼🚐

      Hi 👋🏼, we used our Verizon phones as hot spots as well as internet service from the Calyx Institute but to be honest, if we could do it again, we would invest in Starlink. Starlink is a bit expensive but there were some times we had difficulty getting strong internet from our current setup and had to go to local coffee shops. From what we have researched/been suggested from other van lifers, Starlink is a better option. Hope that helps! Thank you for watching, we really appreciate it!

    I'm loving the Collapsible teapot! I ordered it through your Amazon link. It's the perfect size for my morning coffee! I got to use it on my recent trip through the Outer Banks! Now, I just need to find the right van for the right price!

    Hi guys.
    I am wondering. The folding kettle? Do flames from the stove reach the blue silicone section? If so, is this ok?
    I have a knock off campong stove that was ten bucks from ebay. It is ok but a bit flamey.

    • @mikeandheather
      @mikeandheather  10 місяців тому +1

      Hi!
      Honestly, we have put the flame on higher than it should have been a few times and it reached the blue silicone. Thankfully it was never damaged/ we never had any issues with it 😊 Hope that helps! Thank you for watching, we really appreciate it!

    • @mikeandheather

      We purchased the air fryer from Amazon, the brand name of the product is: iRUNTEK Mini Small Air Fryer Oven Cooker. It is 800W. Here is the link if you are interested in learning more about it: amzn.to/4bRtdG3

    Not supposed to use that stove inside. It's on the instructions.

    • @taddmcmichael9061
      @taddmcmichael9061 11 місяців тому +1

      You do know why that is right? It then removes any liability to the manufacturer. Some people are not equipped to follow directions to keep clear from flammable objects. As well as a understanding of burning hydrocarbons. They will be ok, they are not going to bed (failing to supervise), with all the windows up (no ventilation) while cooking a meal.

      @@taddmcmichael9061 it's about the fumes. Even with the windows down it's not healthy for you

      @taddmcmichael9061 11 місяців тому +1

      ​@@cosmicporch6537Butane and propane are generally considered safe, non-toxic, clean burning fuels. Yes burning hydrocarbons produces CO. Yet so does all indoor burning home or RV. You are also exposed when mowing grass or just living in a urban environment. Limited exposure while monitored from such a small source is not a major concern.
