I'm Dave Covin. For the past few years I've been road tripping my old Buick out west and exploring and making videos. I just recently gave away and sold everything, moved out of my apartment and bought a box van from u-haul. I am currently building it into my off-grid-off-road home to live in and roam North America with my cat. #vanlife #roadtrip #travel #camping #vanlifemeow
I'm Going to Live Off-Grid in an Old U-Haul - Box Van Build Part 1
The BEST U-Haul Conversion on the internet??? LOL. This is part 1 of my van build. Hope you enjoy it (and so do I).

I'm putting it all out here on TH-cam. Why did I refer to my recent series of videos as "my last road trip?" What am I doing with my life and why? #vanlife #mentalhealth #travel #nature #healing en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neophile en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Novelty_seeking Music: Inner Journey by Audionautix is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0...

Your excellent videos are almost like being there.
Thank you! I'm glad you enjoy them!
Love your videos. Wonderful substitute when unable to make those trips. I've watched half of them so far. Will watch all.
Thank you! I really appreciate that. I'm glad you are enjoying them. Many more to come!
Your videos on the NM monuments that I'd never heard of were much enjoyed. You must have 2 copies of that travel gene. Wish you great success. I'll stay tuned.
thank you! my next several videos will be my van build. i have filmed three nebraska camping trips since april that i will upload throughout the next few months as well as planning some winter van dwelling vids. hope you enjoy!
Pronounced "Hay-mez" - no hard J. Like Juan. Comprende?
Thanks! I'm from Nebraska. I pronounce everything wrong lol.
The Anasazi and Zuni are direct descendants, my best friend she's zuni and go with her to participate with her family in cultural events
Majestic is how I describe it. Among the best National parks. Glad I was on a shuttle, my RV would not have been easy. Or legal. 😂
Vanlifemeow. great masterpiece-
thank you!
Cool dude love those 1 road towns.
Why do my comments keep disappearing???
Cool dude
I live in Flag. I’ve been to all those places multiple times. They lived in the cliffs for safety from the Spanish and rival tribes. Read the history!
Wonderful video my friend of my hometown Flagstaff Arizona it was very good to watch and I've shared it with my family and friends next time you're in Flagstaff visit Snow Bowl may your journey be blessed and may you continue on with protection and love in Jesus name Amen ❤️🔥 O thank you for visiting our native lands
Thanks for sharing! Glad you enjoyed it. I love Flagstaff and Arizona.
@vanlifemeow Amen your always welcomed onto our Navajo land, there's more to see and we're having a thunderstorm right now, enjoy your journey my friend be blessed
Cool dude!
such a great video! thanks
Glad you liked it!
Wow! So pretty!!
I feel like I’m on a roller coaster when you speed it up. Lol😂
I have canoed from the dam to the emerald springs. And campground with a group. That was so fun, I’ve never camped from a canoe before. Wild.
Look at all that brittle bush. And the lizards are my favorite. Every once in a while I see a horrendous toad lizard. But the ones with the whiptails get me laughing. I kind of miss home as I watch your video. ❤
Some of my favorite childhood memories were visiting my relatives in Old Town Niobrara. I would move there tomorrow if the old town still existed.
We just love horses 😁
I went this year, so exciting! I see you travel around in the Midwest and Canada. Out of curiosity, how do you get all that money to travel? I've been wanting to travel more outside of South Dakota but man the money lol. Anyways, hope youre doing good, I don't know if you're still on seeing as this was 7 months ago. Can't wait for future content!
Thanks! Currently I work full time and I only take a few vacations a year. When I do, I try to go all-out! I plan on traveling full time soon, within the next year or two.
The inside looks like my house XD
It's beautiful, hopefully I can make a trip there to fish one day. Thanks for the great vid👍
This is so pretty and peaceful looking. Always wanted to see it. Thank you for posting!
TH-cam must have a CRAZY compression tool that they apply because I noticed that the water was acting like it was some sort of stop-motion photography and the shoreline waves were moving smoothly. Did you record this at 60 fps or 30? (looked like 30 which is great for wide cinematic views) My only zonk would be early in the video when you were panning a bit too quickly. There was lots of studder in the video and the details were lost, which most likely indicates a sub-60 fps framerate. Overall though - FANTASTIC! I especially liked the still shots! Keep 'em coming! I would love to see the raw footage of this because I know it would be amazing!
Funny you noticed that part over the water. I actually panned the drone a lot faster than that and then slowed it down to 40% speed in editing which made it a bit choppy there, so I overlayed a caption to distract you from it.
That was EPIC! Nice shots!
I lived in Chadron for a year, so this is cool! What equipment do you use?
I mounted a gopro 9 to the roof of my car for that one. I also use a dji mini 2 drone
@@CoViN88 NEAT!!!
Looks neat from the air 😀👍
Great video..I currently stay in Maryland..i am looking to move to South Dakota....It is great seeing videos of these great places....I look forward to Learning more about South Dakota
Your videos are so captivating. I watched it all the way through! That time lapse was EPIC. Well done sir!
Awesome scenery!
Thxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Definitely rattlesnakes.
Did you like them state-of-the-art special effects at 36:15?
@9:28 you can hear the cow tails swishing. awesome
Played the whole thing at .25
BTW; 1 to 330 or so at .25 speed? pure art.
The complete vehicle control and driving way ahead is just reflective of a race car driver.
At 8:16, had to stop it again and ask if you are not a pro? You take inside tracks and do things only professional drivers do. Again; the photography is excellent.
OMG what a professional driver you are! In only 3.08 minutes of a 24.50 min vid caused this comment from a Fire Dept retiree who was an engineer 13 of a 20 year career. Just lovely driving and photography. I was a freshman at Black Hills State in the autumn of 73.
