My Instagram: / charlesliutravels For business inquiries: charlesliubusinessUS@gmail.com A full day of typical vanlife with plenty of cooking, laundry, dishes, and camping. Filmed across Las Vegas and Searchlight, NV. Enjoy!
I feel like he has very artistic videos and therefore requires alot more time to create them before uploading. Where as if you Ryan Twomey his are very relatable and down to earth.
Subscribed and saved so I can come back to it. This was gorgeous. Watched it 💯 percent through. Editing, sound, colour grading, the story telling through the diary and the transition from toy van on the map to real van in the parking lot, brilliant. The ideas were non-stop. I’m sure the editing took forever to do but bro, soooooo worth it. Inspiring.
Without noticing it in first place, I just realized this was the only video I managed to watch all the way through without skipping a single second recently. I really appreciate all the effort you put into this small movie and all the amazing small editing details. It makes you forget about life and it's never ending worries and teaches you to appreciate all the value in the little things.
When I saw the transition from your toy to your van, I subscribed! Another van life I want to follow, another guy living my dream life that I will never live
What a beautifully refreshing piece of art. No yelling, no competitions, no ad reads, just someone documenting an interesting thing, in a cool way. Cant wait to see your adventures.
One of the times RU-vid algorithm works right. I went into your video thinking it was another "van life" vlog and was going to play it in the background while I did chores. I literally stopped what I was doing and was hooked that first opening shot. I was immersed in the world you created and could not wait to watch more only to find out there are only two vids uploaded so far 😭😭 Everything you've put out so far is so unique and captivating. The vibe, cinematography, editing, transitions, music and that transition shot with the toy van 🔥 And it took me all the way to the end of the video to realize no one was talking. Damn. so good. Can't wait to follow along and see everything you do. Keep up the awesome work!
Okay so the youtube algorithm Gods blessed me this morning because this was the first video it recommended to me and I'm OBSESSED. EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS IS INSANE. In the best way. Its super chill and cinematic. From the food, to the scenic views, to the journaling in the end!! I know this channel is gonna blow up and I'm so happy to be part of the 10k subscriber crew. Wishing you much success for all of your hard work and sharing your adventures with us. God Speed and God bless ❤
Ok I finally found the best van life video. I have seen numerous people posting about van life. But they TALK ALL THE TIME ! Why would I want to spend 30 mins listening to people talking to the camera. I want to see how van life is all about ! Not talking and laughing to the camera.
I wish channels were like stocks, because we’re all here early and we’d make bank on your success. Can’t wait to see what the future holds for you man, solid content!
I love his concept and ways he captures the moments. He has such a unique eye for detail and I can’t wait to see his channel blossom like some of my favorites
Wow. I was about 1:15 in when I thought "This videos so well done. This guy has got to have a lot of subscribers." Keep up the good work and I have no doubt you'll be one of the top vanlife youtubers.
I have followed so many vanlife channels for years now but already fell in love with yours after only 2 videos! Your cooking is awesome and the scrapbook pics at the end is so endearing.
Wow. Even without any dialogue, the cinematography and story telling was perfect. I watched every minute. Great work man, you've earned yourself a new subscriber.
And this is the -first- video?? Outstanding my guy! I almost wish I found you later so I could binge watch it all. Love the camera work and all the cooking. Excited to see more!
Bro I’m so happy for you! You’re living the life I wanna live before I get too old. You’ve inspired me to start my own van life experience. Keep up the good work man!
I mean, where do I begin? I don't know how this popped up on my feed but I'm so happy it did. This was amazing. Amazing editing quality. I love your life. You're also cutie, keep posting.
I loved the fact that there was NO MUSIC and then there was FANTASTIC MUSIC. BTW the french put the chocolate right in the milk and wisk well past the point of it being dissolved then it transforms into a sumptuous thick drink.
Unbelievable editing, the best van life video I’ve ever seen. The thought and time that must’ve went into this and the ending was something out of a movie keep up the great work bro
Honestly bro I loved the editing 0:47, 10:46 and 20:00 you are really good at this. It gives Texas/Mississippi vibes bro. We can't wait you to reach 2m+ subscribers. Your editing is so spectacular 🤩 loved it
Bro, you're living my dream! I love travelling and the outdoors, but i'm also a pretty passionate gamer at heart. This is really the only way to meet both worlds. I'll keep dreaming and I hope you keep uploading :)
Awesome video! Keep up the great work. I would love to live vicariously through you and experience van life from the comfort of my home! Glad I found you!
I've been following vanlifers for 6 years and your videos are clearly at the top when it comes to quality. My friendly advice here, if it takes a lot time to produce this level of quality, drop it. No one would mind. Consistency goes a long way when it comes to expand your audience. Best of luck!
I really appreciate the feedback! It’s really just my job right now that’s blocking up all my time :( But I’m working on a plan to optimize some stuff and be able to post more often.
@@charlesliu50 I've always been curious about the work life of these van-lifers. Do you do computer work? Or do you have a home destination for your van? I'm hoping to get a job in web development or something else tech related that I can do remotely to pursue a similar lifestyle :)
I couldn’t disagree more. I’ve been traveling the country in my van for years; watching van life videos since 2016. 95% are small variations of the same thing. The quality production of your videos adds an element of entertainment not present in most others. I know it is time consuming and labor intensive to make such videos, but please keep up the great work.
So glad I found this! After I saw your red dead redemption 2 video, I became a big fan of yours and really looked forward to more of your work. Super cool to see you living that van life.
That was an awesome story telling without a single word said. Way to combine still shots, POV vids, still drone footages and short clips into a short movie. Editing was on point and I am sure it took a long time. Looking forward to the next vid. Congrats Charles!
let it be the start of a new journey. this video was a hard work but you are providing people with quality content so just don't stop and keep posting on regular basis. your channel will grow very fast
holy shit, quality edits, and that van build is goorgeous it's so cozy, excited to see more! just adding something else, this format with the intro and ending (music choices are fantaastic it drives home the vibe and sets a great tone) are wow wow wow the cinematography, not to mention the scrapbooking with bits and pieces from the video's adventures !!! so whimsical i love it
I feel like I just watched a movie, that editing is absolutely on point. Plus I love the van and the simple but beautiful lifestyle! I really enjoyed, thanks for sharing
After watching this I thought I’d take a look at your main channel expecting to see 10 billion trillion subscribers. You have some slick videography skills, and you can cook! 10 billion trillion soon ! 🤩
A frikken masterpiece. The transition from the car to the map, the effort it took to get the wideshot in the desert of the car driving from left to right. Geez, what artistry.
I've watched a nauseating amount of van lifers here on YT and this is the best I've ever seen. So impressive. I hope you continue this editing style on your journey and I'm excited to see more from you!
I won't comment much but the direction of this vlog has to be appreciated. I have never been so lost and immersed myself in any yt video tbh but this one really caught my attention. Just wow!! This channel and this guy's camera skills are heavily underrated for REAL! You deserve the best bro, keep vlogging!!
I've been looking for something exactllyyyyyy like this!!! Just a silent POV van life video. Thank you so much for making this without jamming some nomad/minimalist philosophy down our throats.
Great van setup! Love the cinematography looking forward to the videos and living vicariously through you. Wish I would’ve done what you did when I was younger!
Just watched both of your current videos. I really hope RU-vid takes off for you because I could watch you and your eye for a beautiful shot all day! Good luck out there!
Awesome video dude. The vibe your editing and also your photos have is so nice and relaxed. If you keep up with this kind of content and quality your channel will blow up for sure. Greetings from Germany.
Cool rig thoughtfully designed, a place for everything & looks good too. Cool to see what a full day looks like. This guy enjoys his day., cooking etc & the egg sandwich was innovative
