Dogs dedicate their lives to making us happy. I'm glad to see this beautiful young lady reciprocates.

@ashevillegeorge3316 3 года назад

Nice build, and she is absolutely correct about dogs! Pets are forever!

@CR-wk2re 3 года назад

Yes, when you get a dog you get them for life! They are family, not a toy. Love her attitude!

@barbaradoheny4473 3 года назад

I have to say I'm really impressed that you recognize animal adoption is for life and you are making your dream happen with your dogs by your side! They are lucky dogs and your approach to life itself gives me hope for the future.

Get a yellow/orange reflective utility worker vest and put on the back of the drivers seat. Implies it is just a service van at 1st glance.

@WitchyWoman-ph2cn 5 лет назад

Eric Tompkins that’s a great idea.

@cookietintero5449 5 лет назад

I like how organized you are

@violetmartha916 5 лет назад

Fantastic idea, and if that doesn't scare then off, let the dogs have a go. 😆

@ABonRMS 4 года назад

The reflective work vest is a great idea. It would be very helpful if you need to pull over on the highway. Get it a little dirty so it adds to the illusion that it's a real work van.

Construction helmet too

Totally agree with her about a pet being a life time commitment. One of our rescues is now 18 years old, and one is 5. Our third (only one I ever paid for) is my 14 year old service dog. He's now deaf and has a heart problem, but I make sure he has all the care he's given me. When we travel, we also make plans around them. Just the way it is girl....I feel ya!

@angeleye1998 5 лет назад

Her van is so nice & tricked out . I really like the lil cute refridgerator, freezer & stove . These features + a big bed & no rent, actually makes this lifestyle seem tempting ..

@kpherenz 4 года назад

but wheres the bathroom? or loo?

@theway5563 4 года назад

Kelly M - You weren’t paying attention. The toilet was in the cupboard under the oven shelf, and would have to be used out & the shower is located outside on the back side of the sink cabinet. She didn’t say what type of toilet it is. Probably just a simple one with a biodegradable catch bag. She could leave it out at night in front of the sliding door behind the driver’s area.

@yourmajesty3569 5 лет назад

Some people talk WAYYYYY too long about their build. This was NOT one of those. I appreciated her pace. And she was also pleasant to hear talk for the video. Loved it!

@thomasjefferson6543 4 года назад

Totally love this young lady. Someone who is willing to compromise her goals and wants for the love of her pets. I wish everyone had that mentality. If you adopt or purchase ( please adopt) a pet the pet is a life commitment, their life. ❤️❤️

@thozz 4 года назад

Thomas Jefferson ....... totally agree. Before we got our dog Luna 5 years ago we all agreed she always comes with us on holiday. So we just rented cottages around the Uk, now we're buying a motorhome for more flexibility.😀🐶

It’s my favorite color. Yay! And the full length mirror is really nice. The oven is great! I could live in it! Tfs! ❤️💜💚

Im still in the "watching van life stage" and yet to transition to van living but with the all the YT videos I have seen on Van life and remodels, I have to say there is a lot of Excellent features in this van that really appeal to me. The decor and style chosen also makes it feel like a home not a vehicle. LOVE IT!

@sammikelly6867 4 года назад

this van is perfect! the chunky surfaces and switches, big sink and tap, cupboards and drawers crafted around gadgets, the fridge freezer, the sliding door, the shower, the long slider drawer at the back, lagoon table, hanging plant, white and green walls, the skylight, the fact there was a portapotty and last but not least, taking the pooches comfort & safety into consideration. Fabulous! I wish this traveller all the best x

"when you get a dog, it's a lifetime commitment'.... you have to respect someone that changes their life to accommodate their critters. too many people are selfish enough to not include the animals in their plans.

We need more people with that loving attitude~ ❤️🐶

Really nice build an beautiful too. Sliding door a good idea. If me though I’d be putting a rod section for clothing on one side of the bed area. The way the table is pushed back at end of video shows you dont need all the head room if no one else is sitting there. Something more, net bags, hooks, magazine racks, mini office.
