If you'd like to see everything I use in my van, click here: www.minivancampergal.com

Welcome to Minivan Camper Gal! I'm Kelly and I camp and travel in a Chrysler Pacifica Minivan, doing part-time van life. Here you will find van build videos, tips on the digital nomad lifestyle, general travel vlog videos, and more. I'm into minimalism, and I eat a mostly plant-based vegan diet. I'm still learning how to do vegan vanlife well! I have some great vegan camping recipes to share with you, but would love some suggestions, too! Sometimes I stealth camp in the city, but I mostly like to boondock. I'm learning to make ASMR, or Unintentional ASMR camping videos. Join me and my camper van as we embark on all the car camping adventures!

I like all the creative people out there with mini vans! We have a small 17 foot trailer with small separate shower and tub but its only like 3.5 feet long! I tried shower once! Cheap head falling down wetting entire bathroom over the curtain. I do what my mother did when we station wagon camped. I bring a dish tub anyway! We boil water for coffee so pour rest in that tub in the bathtub! Add some cold water! Washcloth bath! My mother wash clothed us sitting on back seat on a towel in our station wagon when we took 2 week trips up and down California's coast. And no curtains! And we city camped too!

This looks so tedious! I watched the Asian man showing how to use this. It looked so much easier. And yes, he used a stool.

You have done a great video, there's actually a solar panel manufacturer who has put this altogether in their instructions, I used Method 1, I'm not sure if the link will work, so I'll place the name of the document and hopefully when you google it, you'll be able to find it, I did this more than a year ago and it worked through hurricanes, hale storms, gale force winds no problem at all. I also live in a mini van and have ribs on my roof, so I used gorilla tape as an extra to hold it down, but only covered the sides in between each cell and then gorilla tape on the top and bottom (without covering any solar panel cells), the whole length of the solar panel to make sure the tape in between the sides didn't come off, it didn't, I was so happy with it and it's also easy to remove with no mess afterwards. Try this in a search engine, hope it works...www.exotronic.com.au/buying/buying-guides/solar-panel-wiring-guide/

Thank you for sharing this. I have the GoSun Go as well - but have never used it. I plan to soon and the pizza looks great. I may try to roll all the sauce/toppings inside and crimp the dough closed over the top - make a pizza tube or roll. The cookie - I'd still eat it. Gooey with some vanilla ice cream :) Gonna find your apple pie one next!

Don't understand why you use a sink wich you can't block. If you do your dishes you have a saucepan. Gray water goes in to a tank with a big opening . Probably I'm the only doing thing totaly different

For myself I try to not use insecticide vapors (perithrenoid derivatives specifically). Now you can use on skin or your clothes « icaridin » a safer and more efficient insecticide. You could also add thiamin(B1 200mg/day) to your diet that which will keep mosquitoes away thanks to the repellent smell of your sweat, smell imperceptible to humans.

Important to remember that you need to use DC devices as much as possible, not AC. You get SO much more power out of the generator using DC. And LED lights, never Edison lights. I would get 1 night with my CPAP unit using AC, or 3-4 nights with DC.

Kelly try grilled sweet potatoes with dried cranberries and feta cheese. It's to die for. You slice the potatoes long ways. Sprinkle salt ,pepper and a little honey for sweetness.

Its nice but not convenient for me,i think the tongs were the best part.i have a folding 5inch stick stove.i can use alcohol,sticks on.or use a small pit stove. Keeps coals off ground.
@nickm5849
@nickm5849 12 дней назад
I think your tongs are in back the front or at least up side down - the curvy bits at the end should probably face each other and not face outward so they close down tightly together to pick this up …. I think???

Hi Kelly, I think the price is way too high. You can buy cheapie BBQ "one time" trays 30 times over and just throw it out after. I don't tend to BBQ or fry a lot but maybe it's probably something a meat eater would get more use out of, but would need to wash it more afterwards, which is a chore. Camping Air Fryers are so much more useful, did you review one? Thanks, you did a great demo though ! ♥

I don't like gas grills, I just don't see the point in them. The delicious flavour of grilled meat, fish or veggies comes from grilling something on coal. In Europe we have grill cheese. It is also really good. Don't know if it is a thing elsewhere.

I love the compactness of this grill. It could be modified for other fuels with a simple tray. What I dislike are SPORKS😂😂😂. The spoons are usually too big and the tines are too short for my liking😊

Hi Kelly, love the spot where you're at. I wonder if you can use the bbq with coals instead of gas. If you've made a fire, you can probably put the coals in the container. In SA we call this a braai; but I love my meat!

I enjoy the same brand of Japanese BBQ Sauce, too. It's best, I think, mixing one part of the "original" Japanese BBQ Sauce with the "spicy" Japanese BBQ Sauce (same brand.) Thanks for demonstrating this particular portable grill for preparing fresh and healthy food.
