Winter Van Life in Canada - Throwback Chevy. The 'Winter in a Van' series continues as Michael gives his tips on surviving winter van life in Canada in this edition of Throwback Chevy, practicing what he preaches during an accumulated snowfall of 25cm in Toronto, Ontario. Wood stove safety, gathering wood from untreated wooden palettes, keeping the solar panel cleared of snow, and still finding time for hot meals and comfort inside the '85 Chevy.

@@MichaelCoughlanmusic Hoping to go van dwelling full-time soon, still working, just finished a bit in a Hallmark Movie, also do acting when it comes to our city, when I hit the road I can take part in more. I also play several instruments, not that great but happy with what I do. Good Luck with your van in future travels, did not know I could have a wood stove, game changer for this country gal!

I like that van and the wood burner … Nice and cozy outfit! Try cleaning your battery terminals and make sure all electrical connections are tight. People like Q&A on part of the videos, they like sharing ideas on cooking a meal in Van Life or what meals to buy that are good and what all you can toss in a crock pot for a good meal (like some kind of breakfast omelet, or some guys living in a van are good making different pizzas in a crock pot. They toss some together in a crock pot, set on low, go hiking, and have a meal ready upon their return. Some go on hikes, and some take ventures together with friends that have their vans, and have a good whiskey by a campfire . Some VW van have awnings, good to cook under in winter with their solo stove fire. Sometime they haul in their firewood or they have a axe and saw to fetch their wood making starter firewood. I like watching their skill starting a fire I don't know what equipment you have there, I only viewed a few of your downloads. I'm trying to give you some subject matter for discussions. You have a telescoping fishing rod to catch some fish when you camp near a stream to cook outside your van over a fire? This all can be fun entertaining stuff.

Michael Coughlan , Thanx - many people dream of luxury beachside villas etc and I wouldn’t mind that , but after a time it may become boring - I would love to try the travelling life-style in a van because of the variety and also the different people you’d meet along the way -,it would be a great adventure !

Hello from "Oilbrrrta", im from Acadia(NS). Too many people do the same videos, do you...be different and unique from the cookie cutter videos. This is what makes each channel special. If they dont like music or topic, they can find another channel. As for those bully commenters, You can go to their channel and block them from commenting on your videos. I block anyone who bullies anyone. Cant wait to see more of your videos. :)

The gas heater doesn't work in my RV and I despise the road salt, otherwise I would really want to try this out since it has been a pretty good winter here in Sweden with a good amount of snow too. Maybe next year. Be careful out there.

Is there a way to take off the chimney in the summer? It breaks the stealth. I'm from Toronto as well and I'm wondering how much solar power u can get in the winter. In a snowstorm, doesn't snow fly off the top when you're driving? How big of a battery bank do you have?

Eric Yuan You could take your chimney off in the summer. It depends on how you want to install it. And yes snow blows off the solar panel, but you should brush it off whenever possible. It would blow off your roof even if you didn’t have a solar panel! I have one dedicated marine battery for my solar energy storage. It’s enough for my laptop, tv, and lights. Even in the winter. Just brush it off every hour if there’s snow. Obviously if there’s no sun there’s not much you can do.

Hey, check out Boss of the Swamp on KZfaq, a great guy that lives off grid, some great ideas he shares too. His initials are JC, a really good carpenter, a cabin builder, give him a try. Frankie is his border collie, a very well trained disciplined dog who fetches his beer at times - HA! I learned a lot from JC. When you have free time, check out his channel
