Thanks for watching!
“I don’t need a 5 gallon bucket, I’ve got a 2 gallon butt” - greatest thing I’m going to hear today. 😄😄
I watched a video of her home in a home, she converted a bedroom with an attached bathroom into her own tiny house and her family lives in the rest of the house. She one smart lady.
Where is the video
Good vidio
@@maryomoimole The video of her home transformation is on her UA-cam channel, Lulu's Way
I like her show n tell too. Lots of great ladies with great ideas.
Vanlifers single-handedly keeping Planet Fitness in business
😂I had the same thought and it made me laugh out loud... then I saw your comment and laughed out loud again😂 That is one smart business model Planet Fitness!!
Lulu is a force within vanlife. In quick order, she has a book club, healthy eating channel, winter meetups and of course her inaugural channel Lulu's Way AND her own song on Google Music! She has abundant energy and creativity. I'm looking forward to meeting her soon in person. I only hope I can keep up.
I love the unintentional statement. "I'm home less and traveling more", (homeless). 🤣🤣
Sideways medicine cabinet, lattice under mattress, CD holder cabinet. What amazingly creative ideas!! I need to work harder on imagining non-traditional uses for great thrift store finds!! You go, Lulu!! 😊
Wow! Lulus tour video came up FAST! I was afraid it would take months. Bob knows quality content when he sees it. How exciting! Bless her, she only thought it was hard to keep up and reply to comments on her channel. After this, she will be even more of a hero to women of all ages ❤️
I loved all Lulu's build videos and subscribed to her channel early on.
I've since unsubbed once the song & ego kicked in.
Lulu's love for life and people is a huge treat...I hope she gets TONS MORE SUBSCRIBERS !!
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
@@froglover7967I guess your mama didn’t teach you what my mama taught me. May God bless you, froglover.
@@froglover7967 😳 wow, since you've been watching her as long as many of us, surely you remember the song was made because she loved dancing and couldn't play regular music due to copyright infringement. I'm still trying to figure out where an inflated ego came in as you see it. Guess you are entitled to your opinion though. Mine is she's a humble individual, aware of what she wants, how she wants it and not seeking validation from anyone but herself 🤔 the sign of a mature person who knows herself.
@@froglover7967
When you put good energy out into the world you get good energy back … be kind ♥️♥️♥️✌️
Lulu seems to have the best of all worlds. Free to go when she wants, knows her home base is secure and looked after. Such great ideas in her van. The creativity in these van tours always amazes me!
Yes I have a house too❤
She has even made more cool tweeks to her van since this was recorded. She is the best.
"I don't got a 5 gallon butt" made me laugh. Love the interior design, very cheerful !
Lulu's van has evolved even more since she did this tour. Such a creative and clever lady. Love the very pretty aesthetics and her amazing innovations. Mostly just love Lulu's positivity and joyful personality. Her vanlife channel is brilliant..always fun, always interesting. Thanks for featuring her beautiful van. 🦋
Hello. The build is eclectic. She has taken individual components that are mutually exclusive and made them live and work together. She is so uninhibited and spontaneous. It reminds me of Wabi Sabi. She is financially secure and thrift shops for things to go in the van. She has a strong sense of who she is and how she is wired. She makes no apologies for the way she travels lives and plays.
I have a feeling we aint seen nothing yet. Unstopable yes, courageous, brave, fun, funny, giving and determined to name a few. LULUS way! Dance,dance,dance. Yay.
It’s always the creatives who find the most practical solutions!
Love LuLu’s channel. She is so creative, organized, and I really enjoy her healthy eating food prep and cooking demonstrations. She has lost 100 lbs and maintained her weight for years.
LuLu is the most organized person I've ever seen. Might I also add that she is the most positive? Love the tour. Very creative ideas.
The surround on the roof and the lattice as bed support totally new ideas to me. Thank you, Lulu! Lovely interview, Bob!
I follow Lulu’s channel “Lulu’s Way”. She is so inspirational. She has the most positive outlook on life. She’s very creative and innovative. And most of all she’s fun!
This chick's a professional. So nice to see somoeone not dragging their house around in a van! Good stuff xox
Am so glad you interviewed Lulu. Her enthusiasm is contagious.
Lulu, thanks for bringing true stealth back to stealth camping.
The sheet metal on the roof is genius! 🙌
Bob and Lulu together! My two favorite explorers!
What a pleasant surprise to see you, Lulu!
Awesome to see LuLu featured here. Love her spirit and what she did with her van build. I've been a LuLu fan for a few months now.
Thanks Bob for featuring Lulu’s van build! Love her earth friendly recycling and repurposing what she already has! Her innovative ideas are truly an inspiration and she’s so relatable! I love the way she embraces life and seizes the joys out of wherever she is at! She reminds us that it is far more fun to travel that to actually arrive! So fun! ❤
Love watching Lulu! I’m so glad you showcased her. More people need to experience her positive energy!
The bed in the passenger seat is causing me to rethink many ideals. It's genius. The lattice. Wow. Thank you.
It started to sink a little but she fixed that. I thought for a person with a larger frame, you could probably double up the lattice for stronger support. Such a great idea for ventilating the mattress.
Lulu is fantastic with a heart of gold. She is an awesome inspiration to so many of her peeps! I’m happy to be one of them and share on all of her platforms, have attended her Jan meetup and onboard for Feb! I am also a member of the book study club and have grown so much! Lulu…you are loved❤️❤️
1:33 Oh my god!!!! WHOLE new meaning to the term "homeless." "I find that Im HOME LESS than I was before." Meaning you are out traveling and having adventures. I havent thought of it in that way before. Love that!
So lovely to catch Lulu's enthusiasm, and see all her great low-cost ideas! Whoo-hoo! ❤❤❤
Hi Lulu!! It's great to see you with Bob - your van is awesome - thanks for sharing it with Bob's audience!
She certainly thinks outside the box. Great ideas that I hope to use someday.
THE most ingenious, lovely, build-out I've seen yet. Lulu, you are amazing.
Glad you featured Lulu she has the best ideas and the best energy I have been enjoying her channel for almost a year now! She is so cool!
I just love all of the creativity and reuse that happens in the vanning community, particularly respresented on this channel. Love you Bob!
Lulu is so awesome! I met her when I was leaving my mail box place and she was just as nice in person as she was all those months I’d watched her on UA-cam. Pretty darn smart, too! I’m so glad you interviewed her and showed folks her rig. If you get the chance, check out her first tour of her old minivan on Butterfly Tracks. She had some fantastic ideas there, too!😊
Her refrigeration method in her old van was just genius using the Stow n Go area.
She is brilliant and doesn't know it. Thank you Lulu for sharing your many great ideas.
you can feel her joy
I love Lulu's energy, upbeat outlook and creativity! She is an inspiration and makes vanlife look accessible to people like me (scardicat lol). Her rig is functional, tidy and so cheerful. Definitely want to check out her channel.
It's Amazing how many fabulous ideas Lulu has implemented in her van build. Thanks for this wonderful video, Bob!
I absolutely love this van! It is so functional, yet so pretty and cozy as well. Lulu seems like such a positive, fun loving, happy person who loves her life. And she is so creative! Such an inspiration!
I’ve seen Lulu be interviewed by Bob before. This interview is even better. Many practical ideas and pointers on stealth. How does she prevent passersby from seeing her bed? Isn’t it in the passenger seat space? Thanks
I think she uses window covering pads attached inside to the van windows with magnets for privacy. Hides any lights she might have on inside for camping stealth. Her van is very well decorated which didn’t show much in the video. Go to “Lulu’s Way” on Utube to see her adventures and more of her van decor. I love Lucy! I mean Lulu.
Lulu for the win each and every day 🎉
Great job Lulu!
Loved the medicine cabinet/desk and the lattice . No moldy mattress and a lil more comfortable, I imagine
Lulu and Bob at one time! Wow! Double Rock Stars!😂
Love Lulu & her zest for life!
Love Lulu, she’s a well of ingenuity. Love how she tweaks her van constantly, even since this video she’s made brilliant improvements. Plus her van is so neat and orderly, and pretty. She’s inspiring.
Lulu is great. I have watched her build out her van, and she's so innovative. Very fun to watch.
Lulu is the best. You interviewed a real winner.
Lulu is the best!
Lulu and Bob met !!!!! Two beautiful souls I came across on UA-cam and they’re my two favorite people on UA-cam to watch ❤❤. Hugs for both from Washington state 🤗🤗
Lulu is one I watch regularly. Check out her latest she has a song she made and dances with people in her videos. ❤😂
I love how excited she is about the clever build of her tiny living space. Very beautiful interior!
What a great setup! Thanks for sharing this. Love to see how she takes some furniture and uses it in different ways. So smart!
Been checking Bob's channel regularly hoping Lulu's interview with the so nice Bob Wells would come up; here it is and it was wonderful! LuLu you are a natural!🎉 ❤
I love how she did the insulation! Lightweight and pretty at the same time! 😊
And we love you Lulu❤❤❤❤❤
Lu Lu is one together woman! One of the best vans I've seen here.
I have been enjoying Lulu's channel - good to see Bob sharing a tour of her van!
Oh wow, what an amazing woman Lulu is. So organized, so friendly, and so creative. I'm loving the inside of her van very much, and the subtle camouflage on the roof does keep it stealth. Thank you, Bob.
Go LuLu go!
I've been a subscriber of Lulu's since day one! love her energy, her content and zest for vanlife! Just goes to show you...practical and simple are key to enjoy the journey!!
Oh my GOSH!!! I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the way you've done your van. I am getting ideas for mine, if I can ever find one (it's really hard) but, I'm looking! I want to do what you're doing and keep my house! I have no mortgage and have someone to stay here!!
She’s such an inspiration for seniors that we still got this!!!❤️🔥🚐🙌🏼
Such a wonderful lady!
outside of having a 5 gallon but and a carcass that would be dangerous to support with lattice i really really like her ideas and ingenuity. charming lady.
I've been a subscriber to Lulu since the beginning. Her love for travel and meeting new people could put a smile on anyone's face. Oh, and don't forget the dancing. 💃🥰
I love all things Lulu, her style, her accent, her brevity, and of course her van builds!
Loved seeing Lulu and all her creative ideas.
We love Lulu!!!
YAY 👏 That's our girl Lulu 🎉
LOVE Lulu’s van and LOVE her UA-cam channel, too!!!
I couldn't live with all the patterns, BUT I love how UNcluttered your home is. Great job!
Lulu, you rock! Your enthusiasm is contagious!
That was an amazing and creative video! ❤
But what a busy head Lulu has! In Dutch we say: she talks 75 minutes in an hour 😂
Thank you, Dr. Burg for all of your great videos and information. I had a fatty liver and high ferritin a couple of years ago. I followed your videos and keto diet. Within 6 months, my blood work was normal, and I felt great. Thanks again. Please keep up your great work.

Love this video! Thanks Bob for featuring LuLu! ❤

Lulu is an amazing person. Love her channel.
Love Lulu subscribe to her channel. She was so thrilled to do this interview with you!
Lulu you are the bomb!! 💣 Love your build and creativity. Thanks for bringing her to us Bob.
I wanted to see you and Bob dance again. That was awesome. 😊😂❤
Fantastic Rig, Lulu! Thanks for showing us around.
I've been watching Lulu's channel since she started and she's such an inspiration to everyone. She spreads joy wherever she goes. Make sure you listen to her song that her Son wrote and she sings to ...and dances to, of course. It's "Ready to Dance."!😊❤
This build is as inspiring and beautiful as the owner/builder Lulu. One of my all time small Van favs.
I have seen Lulu before in other videos, but I had not seen this new van before. I especially love her creative invention for insulated window inserts ❤ Great job she has done 😀
Very talented Lady full of good ideas
Absolutely genius 🤓
