Hi mate. This is actually one of the 1st videos I watched. Since then I've watched all your videos. 90% over the last 2 days. I binge watched. Now what do I do 😄 I've just watched your last 3 year's in 2 days and its been amazing. I'm a fan. What an awesome, impressionable fella you are. I've laughed out loud many times. I went travelling after a break-up years ago. Met the love of my life a few years later. Went to the Swiss Alps as it happens. Amazing video by the way. Scottish, so I've been all up there. Now in Portsmouth. Congratulations on the success of the channel. You've come a long way from an empty Kangoo. I hope you keep making these videos. I've not commented throughout as there was too many to get through but I shall from here on in. Now that I'm sadly up-to-date. Take care buddy and don't forget to empty the yellow bottles 😅

Hi buddy. One fee simple bit of advice to remember for next time you’re having a bad time, or a good time for that matter. You will never find happiness externally. Things, possessions, friends even the love of your life will not bring you happiness. To find it you simply look within. Until you can find happiness, acceptance, contentment and joy within you, you will have ups and downs. Once you find it inside yourself, every day will be as happy as the one before and the next will be.

Trust me.. love isn’t real.. keep living your own dreams before someone comes and stops them in the name of “love”

Nice to see fellow van dwellers. I been in my van 3 yrs now too. U gotta be a special type of person to do this. It's the simple things, getting out in nature, saving money, not being trapped in work and free to roam that drew me to this. It's helped my mental state so much and I'm a totally new person and I feel like I'm in control of my own life.

Vanlife 24/7 in the UK is a constant fight against humidity, lack of electricity, lack of sun and cold🥶

Your actually living your life , most people are just slaves to there possessions are fearful of the judgement of others , i take my hat off to you mate , ❤

Please please please stay humble and always like this i absolutely love these videos I’ve been through a really tough time lately and I watch this guy and feel warm and cosy inside and at peace he’s a legend

It's a short life. Make everyday an adventure! Keep going making the most of life because it's only a short one. Keep safe be humble and nice to people.

I did a similar thing, lived in a van, in fact I still do while I'm at work. But I bought a derelict bungalow up in Lincolnshire, I lived in my van while I renovated it. Now I have a place to store some stuff and fix my van when it breaks down! I would recommend getting a place or some land, you are in the unique position where you can live cheaply and save money to buy a place fairly quickly compared to most. Nice video!

Youll get a lot of judgement of course when dating but remember what you're doing takes balls. You're doing what makes you happy and playing by your own rules which the majority of people never manage at any age. There's good women out there who will judge you on your character and not on where you live. If anything, living in a van will help you avoid superficial people who are looking for money/status/social approval and help you find someone who loves you for your courage and strength of character.

This is what I try to do every summer: rent a van, put a matress in it and go exploring. I did it last year and I did Scotland in a car too. Best trip ever. I will try to go France for a couple of weeks next summer. And you're so right... Having a sidekick would be great. I'm looking for an adventurous woman too. Some of the views on those trips and the mornings with mountains in the background would be just that much better with a lady friend for sure! Good luck on your travels 👍

Good video. Talking about the things that you've done and been through. I started living in my van due to breaking up with my partner. I've now been living in my van for 11 years now. Loved every minute of it.

Praying for Us All Wishing for a Partner that has not arrived into Our Lives as of Yet ❤ Peace Y'All

Personally, I don't see a problem with someone living in a van, so long as there is a job, and I'm not having to support him. That said, I'm to old for you, but I believe the right girl won't mind the van... Maybe she will have a van of her own! Good luck, have fun!

Fair play mate, what a journey! I got rid of my van earlier this year when I was in a relationship but now that's gone to s**t I'm dying to get another one 😅

After the disaster of 2022, I felt awful and I made my galaxy and went to Scotland too, all west coast and I agree the most beautiful place I've been. Thanks for sharing ,,

I remember your post break up video, it was so sad, but then you started to feel better when you were having adventures. You know, you're very resilient and you've got so much to he proud of, you've achieved a lot. You've inspired me for sure! Im so glad you haven't given up on love. Any girl would be lucky to have you (even in a van!) Keep being you and living life 😊

I love it when I see NK has uploaded. It’s always nice to see you, you’re such a lovely young man. My little microcamper has been my saviour (mentally) & I couldn’t be without it. I care for my severely autistic 23 yr old son & need the breaks I get in my little van & out hiking. It’s really been life changing. Take care & keep making the videos ❤

What a journey. Mad to think it’s been 3 years already. Proud of you bro ❤

Nice to see you out there still enjoying the van life. I first commented one of your posts back in September when I bought my peugeot tepee. It will finally be converted next month so trip down from Scotland to Midlands. Time flies. Yes you are right, we don't know what is round the corner. This year will be 4 years after losing my 1st partner and a year after losing my 2nd partner. Not easy at times but I push myself forward. I have campsites booked for beginning of May as a treat for my birthday. I will walk up 4 Northern munros so cannot wait. I would like to explore more this year and it would be great to share it with someone enthusiastic as me. My broken heart is healing and it needs time. I am grateful that I live in Scotland. Mountains round the corner, magic sunrises on the top of a hill, lochs, even just a simple road trip, peace and quiet, well apart of the midges 🤣 Happy travels and stay safe

100% Scotland is such an amazing place. Decent videos mate

Really cooll story ! 😁 Best of luck from Ireland 💪💪

I absolutely loved this video! You seem like such a genuine and good hearted guy, keep up the great content dude! We need more youtubers like you 💪

Good idea doing the recap of the last 3 years and it shows just how quickly they have passed by. A few down periods but mainly fun adventures. Hopefully the events unfolding for all of us, won't affect you as much doing things away from crowds and all of the stinking bills, that those with homes have to pay. That will only be worse next year along with the other stuff going on. Enjoy vanlife adventures for as long as you can and it's been great viewing 👍

Companionship, friendship, relationship… intimacy, sharing, caring … no matter the lifestyle … 2gether is better, for lots of reasons … humans are tactile beings … 👍🏼

Absolutely loved this! 👍

I dont think women believe in love the same way we men do. From one adverterer to another. God bless ya mate

Another great video buddy! Hope to share an adventure soon 🚚🚐⛺️🔥

I enjoyed watching your videos don’t worry about things, girls & whatever else just focus on yourself look within yourself for happiness & enjoy your solitude doing the things you enjoy doing because nobody else can make you happy except yourself but they can make you feel down being a solo van lifer is great because you don’t have anyone to argue with or worry about them dumping you etc I suggest you adopt a fur baby to travel with I live in my van with my cat 🐈‍⬛ she loves being in the van with me she’s so funny & affectionate pets make great companions & are loyal friends enjoy safe travels

Respect. I admire that you're living van life. I saved much money over around 5 years and now live in my first mortgaged property (Reading, Berkshire) which is and has been amazing BUT i have neglected travel and seeing the world in that time and i plan to make up those losses in the future. Ive also wanted to see the swiss alps for a long time so hopefully can go car camping myself in my 2002 ford focus and see them with my own eyes. GREAT HONEST REAL CONTENT. thank you

Great video buddy, look forward to seeing what the future brings 💪

Thanks for sharing your thoughts, hopes and adventures. Three years in a van with a full-time job, well done. Something I am considering after another rent increase tut.

Great vid. I've lived in various vehicles for the last 12 years .. absolutely love it. Ha dont say you live in the back of van, simply say you are nomadic .. much more romantic ❤ peace Bro

Man thanks for sharing..... you've made me feel good and adventurous... ✌️

Good to see you man. Been with you from the start, totally agree, I had an accident in April and only just had my operation a week ago. If it weren't for friends and my daughter god knows what would have happened to me and my dogs. I think putting something in place for the unforseen is vital for vanners. The break up vid was very moving. Your still young, I'm sure your sidekick is round the corner. Here's to the next 3 years. 😊

Thanks

Great to see you back 🙂 you are right life does go so fast! Cannot believe its just over 7 weeks until Christmas,and with 7 Grandchildren thats not cheap lol.Well done on achieving 4,580 subscribers 👍looking forward to the next video.Takecare , Jen and Paul x

Thanks for letting us come with you on your journey so far, wishing you the best on your future adventures whatever way they go. Really appreciate the honesty.

Best way to live today I think just a van go where you want no mortgage no worries .only thing missing a few fishing rods 🎣🎣🐟🐟 maybe a dog 🐕👍

Just come across this video and glad I did! I have just sold my property and looking to move into van life. I have just split from my partner of 11 years which has massively hit me hard. Glad you are doing well and thank you for the video. Just subscribed! All the best …. Smithy

I feel like sleeping in my van every time i watch your videos, lol.

Really inspiring stuff, mate. Great to see the the positive impact this lifestyle has had on you. I'm looking to start living in a van from about March or April 2024. So excited for this new chapter in my life!

Cool video, thanks for the honesty, already can't wait for your next adventure 😊

hi from north wales. wow your videos are so insperational for me. there is a big adventure waiting for us out there. I want to do the same thing. thank you for your vids

No one knows what is around the corner so if you enjoy it just do it. Love will find a way. Yes it rules out some women who like their comforts but there will be someone who is doing what you do or is prepared to give it a go. Keep doing what you enjoy

And one other thing. If the lady's can't accept my van then they ain't worth it. But I love seeing all the van lady's out their. Good luck in your journey buddy

Dating? Stay single, it's stressless! 😁

What a great story mate, so inspiring, now I have bee in my bonnet. Thank you. Harry

I really like your videos, you speak with a good flow and edit nicely and I like that you started under rough conditions but are upgrading yourself and keep going. Strong of you to start that new job in another city. Im getting a Citroen Berlingo in 4 days, about the size of your first van. Im so pumped :D

Got your suggestion videos from all the over here in Ohio United States subbed

You've achieved so much it was a pleasure meeting you that once. Hope to see you again sometime. ALL BEST 😊👍

Nice video. You don't owe anyone anything and you're smiling. You've cracked it!

Thanks for another great video. Really love the honest content. Well done on 3 years of van life.

Just subscribed good stuff

Lovely story m8. Have a goodnight & keep enjoying life ❤

Take my hat off to you mate 👍

Just found your channel, would love to try van life as love traveling.

Great video as always 👍👍 may the adventures continue.

Motivation at its fullest 🎉

Nice to see how far you have come bro Be proud and keep it going Just enjoy life

Just found your channel well done your a warrior

Just found your channel a few days ago and I actually went back and have watched every video in order, really enjoyed them. I do find your attitude to life a bit refreshing, especially the tough stuff. I'm part way through converting a campervan, and it's taken me a year so far, no end in sight. I've used all my holidays up this year, every single one, just working on the van. For some reason it seems to take me 10x as long as anyone else. Getting there though. I started it because my partner of 12 years and I used to camp a lot, but her health is declining rapidly and now can't walk without a stick, so the plan was to convert it over last winter and be able to go on adventures again this year. Well that's not happened, we've slept in it 3 times so far. Should be done for next year though!

Oh Man, what brilliant narrative videos. Take my hat off to you big time. I would love to do something like this. Suppose if I were single I would have nothing to hold me back. If that were the case as I have no immediate family I would worry about having a forwarding address. But anyway going back to you, hats off big time.....Good luck with your adventures......

Loved this

If you need anything like use some tools ive plenty all cordless too dont be stuck for help there is plenty of it available for the asking here on you tube who admire what you are doing , your doing what lots of us can only wish were brave enough to do ,

Great video mate. Glad you made a good recovery after surgery and you're enjoying the adventures.

Great video mate 👍😊

nice to see ya bk it's been along time my freind 😂😂

Hello mate. New subscriber. Love the video. Need to go back and watch some more. Sounds like quite a journey you've been on. We are just starting ours with a trip in our little van to Montenegro. planning full time van life next year with a biggar van. Hope our channel can grow like yours. Keep going mate. It's great.

Hey bro. Im a new subscriber . Absolutely love your content. Absolutely love the 💯 honest no bull crap straight talking. 👌 keep doing what ya doing cos your doing it great... 👏 👌 👍

Good for you mate ! Enjoy your vids. Been catching up

well donr mate

We don't know what tomorrow holds but, we know Who holds tomorrow

Great video thanks 😊

New subscriber here lovin your outlook on life, keep the adventures coming 👍👍

Nice one mate. Keep it up x

I would love to do van living. But in my country it is so expensive to own a car (roughly £10,000 a year) due to parking costs, road tolls and road taxes. Which is more than my yearly rent.

If I did van life id save 450 rent 100 council tax. 30 quid water . 150 in energy bills a month. No brainer really it's taking the first step that's the hardest. The little pots of money would grow quickly.

You sound like a guy whose very independent when you mention a sidekick that sounds great but it comes with a price where your independence is concerned anyway great to hear from you again I’ve always enjoyed your channel as a mature guy with a kangoo you’ve inspired me to work on my van in a very modest way I’m glad you’ve got a bigger van that’s better for you 👍

Nice video

Cool video thanks... I'm waiting to buy my own campervan and do the same.

Luv watching and listening to your lovely accent and you are mighty fine to look at too love!

Just wonder if you've ever put a profile up on a dating site looking for a like-minded girl? Hope its not too much of a personal question but I figure you're an upfront kinda guy 🙂. I think it's the way to meet in this day and age. Never used dating sites but don't see why not. You're an all-round great fella and there must be girls out there looking for the same. Even if the van was to become a weekend getaway. Loving your channel. I'll be delving into your past videos when I get a chance 😄. All the best.

Great vid

You have an uncanny resemblance to Peter Sutcliffe 😱

If she judges you for living in the van then she's not the right one for you mate like you said

I moved to the UK in 2019 and got 2 jobs online developing code for a game maker and a content creator, between both and working 80 hours a week from home I earned an after-tax 1,000 a week, and my wife worked full time and paid our living cost 100% for 4 years, because last month we moved into the house I bought for us in cash 195k, still have about 7k in the bank, learn to code on my own, learn how to score the jobs on my own. Couples working together can do anything they set their minds on without settling for owning a van, not a home.3 weeks ago I quit both jobs and am about to open my dream thing, a food truck and food content, and do some traveling at food events across the UK, I am from Florida, and my wife is British. Living in a van is not an accomplishment, doing what we did in a pandemic/war/UK failed Brexit environment with no prior savings, I showed up in the UK with an engagement ring and a plan.

Keep doing whatever makes you happy. As Dave Grohl said, life's too damn short to let someone else's opinion steer the wheel! Keep the videos coming. I've seen them all, and watching them is now like sitting down with a mate for twenty minutes. Stay safe. 🫶🏻

Just subbed. I imagine it can be quite lonely at times? Looking to dip in to vanlife myself so these questions enter my head

Where do you park? In a way that local people dont get angry/suspicious?

I don't have anyone not one 😂 anyone else can do it

Any DPF issues yet?

In a strange way I can’t explain, you remind me of Russle Brand

What do u do for a living/work ?

Surprised not a hi-top. Try van festival dating 😗

👍🏻👍🏻

Living in a small car

*PromoSM* 🍀

I gotta ask, what's the tattoo? It looks completely black

Don't date, don't go steady with any wee doll, just do booty calls you'll save more money and live stress free lol
