  • VAN LIFE VLOG. We got a new folding camp table and i just Love It. Exploring around Wells BC today and 10 Mile Lake BC. Folding Table from amazon amzn.to/37Z4AXP
    Living full-time in my rolling tiny home has been the best decision of my life. Off-Grid living offers a peace and connection to life that you just can't explain. When i first started van life i build a stealth camper van with the mindset the you had to live a stealth van life and i soon discovered that you can just live the city van life and boondock in the countryside and as long as you are respectful of the backcountry and cities you live in. Stealth van life in not necessary. Be proud of the life you choose to live, Share this van life journey with everyone. Remember Tiny Homes and The whole tiny house lifestyle is very popular and #vanlife is no different. When you don't hide it people will come say hi and ask you questions. The world is more curious than hateful. Well......Welcome to my everyday van life adventures. My name is Chrome Valdez and i travel full-time with Cruz the bulldog. Stay weird everyone and thank you for being here.

    It's a pleasure watching you. I am a DJ from Buffalo NY, own a 2005 Ford E250 Extended just like yours and am considering the whole Van Life idea but definitely want to have a home base with storage for equipment, workspace for projects as well as van modifications and such. I am excited to journey with you and hope we can meet up some day, maybe make some music or just talk DJ/Van Life whatever. Have a great day
