Welcome along for another van life adventure out in the cold winter temperatures. This time I take my 2020 Mercedes Sprinter 4x4 van up into the Cascade Mountains where I find myself in sub-zero winter conditions. Even in these sub-zero temperatures I manage to build a campfire and enjoy some time in the winter wonderland of Eastern Washington. Welcome on board this winter van life adventure.

Hey Chad just wanna let you know I admire your work and watching your videos gives me eternal peace. Huge fan of yours from the other side of the world(India) Greetings for the Christmas!

@ToniMattTony Год назад

I love when you spend more time indoors and tell us and show us the weather conditions. Please do more cold weather trips

@sailingscotland5114 Год назад

Your video had all of the main ingredients for winter...adventure, battle against the elements, preparation with good gear, a little whisky?, a fire and a trusty companion. I think you ticked all of the boxes on this video . The video production was superb with great drone shots and I enjoyed watching that a great deal!

@LivingTheVanLife Год назад

Thanks for that! Much appreciated!

@WhatItBeLike123 Год назад

Dude. These are the types of videos I love. I appreciate the cinematography, but really love the in the van, hunkered down, and seeing you in your living quarters type videos. It’s nice getting both parts. I personally watch the videos for the van camping and it’s cool to see your rig and what you can do in it!

@rickievandeventer5979 Год назад

I can definitely relate. I miss the old school van life videos. This is just overly pimped out and to be honest doesn't have that same homely feel. Still enjoy the video but not what I originally watched.

Hi Chad. I discovered you on RU-vid about a week ago and have been binge watching your amazing videos ever since. I live in Scotland and it looks a lot like where you are at the moment! I bought a converted Ford Transit minibus last year and spent the whole summer travelling around Scotland with my wee dog. I've now stripped out the interior and am re-doing it to better suit me. I hang on your every word!!!! and have learnt so much from your videos, as well as enjoying the spectacular scenery. I love the way you look after Trucker so well, with his lovely warm jacket and his snow boots!! I don't normally write any comments on RU-vid but I wanted you to know how much I appreciate every aspect of the content that you post. Take care and I look forward to watching your next video.

@Vandominium Год назад

Chad, my guy. It’s not just that your van is super off road capable, that’s just one aspect of it. It’s that fact that you go the inhospitable places that don’t necessarily invite you dude. #keeponvanin. I wanna be like you when I grow up……..

@LivingTheVanLife Год назад

@liedebunker1253 Год назад

I just love to watch camping, especially living-in-a-van camping. Many others make camping videos about their vacations, which is not real life.

@luckyedwards4870 Год назад

One might assume ur a decent guy from ur vids, but I figure that's gotta b true with how good u treat ur dog. Who doesn't luv a good dog. Ur dog appears like a good dog, and I really respect and appreciate how obviously good u r to ur dog. Cool vid over Stevens Pass, I must have driven that pass a zillion times. A true thumbs up guy.

@elib7311 Год назад

I LOVE that overhead light! Now, I don’t know all the techno terms for those handy things, but with my night blindness, MAN, if I could legally drive around with something like THAT??? The way it lit up the woods so you could see if anything was gonna come leaping out onto the road…and where the curves are before you reach them-yeah, I need one of those in my life. Maybe on the front door too…turn it on when someone ignores the No Soliciting sign…

Please show where your dog gets a warm meal. He didn't look very happy when you called him out into the cold. Right after you had hot beef stroganoff.

Not YOU watching Ice Age while IN ice age conditions!! I love it! Also not ME putting our pup (beagle/hound mix) in a full on winter coat to go outside, briefly- in our SOUTH CAROLINA just starting to hit freezing temps while y'all are showing real dogs and people how it is. LOL! Great video! Wishing you all the best, always!

@LivingTheVanLife Год назад

This is my 10th year of van life. Too young? Never. I was in my 30's when I started. Take it slow and make sure it's totally the lifestyle you want before selling your sticks and bricks in order to live in a van. Best of luck to you both! Thanks for watching!

Hi Chad, great videos been watching you for a while it's just such a peaceful life. I lived in a camper for about 3 years drove all around Europe in it did about 7 countries had the time of my life now live on a boat and living the dream...wouldn't change it for anything, I feel so free when I'm on it, it makes everything feel right and in balance its such a beautiful life ......anyway look forward to your next video take care 🙂

@mohammadrayyan7851 Год назад

How do you work? i.e what do you do to make a living while living in a van or a boat other than social media?

@vexvanquish Год назад

I am a groundworker, digger driver so work for a while travel for a while its about balance and finding what suits you. I don't do much travelling these days as done alot when I was younger but still love the life style, peace and tranquility.
