    I recently bought a Tupperware container that works like a crisper (necessary when you share a fridge), it works really well and keeps my veggies fresh. Came in a bunch of sizes so would easily work in your mini fridge. Sistema is the brand in Aus, perhaps there's something similar if that brand isn't in the US.

    Please please do the "how to choose the van for you"
    I go over and over on "do I want the 144 or 170"? I am SOOOOO stressed about "do I want my bed on the side or in the back".

    • @paprincess297
      @paprincess297 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thank you for your input David C!
      but..... I hear a lot of van lifers with the 170 say the extra space is worth it. And THERE is where I struggle.
      Most of the parking I am doing is outside of towns and cities, other than the grocers or for other supplies and necessities ~those are all parking lots.
      I drive a bus and its very infrequent I struggle with length (unless someone is parked haphazardly or a map is incorrect, then it's usually just locating a turnaround)

Also, you could add or do a separate video on regular maintenance you must do for sprinter to keep it in great running condition/liveable, who does the repairs & possibly cost.

    This was both entertaining and informative. You're telegenic, interesting, and never boring. I really liked how you defined the food themes for each of the four seasons, and I've added that as seasonal reminders to my calendar (except for the fall apple juice because my diet guru discourages me from drinking juice, but three out of four ain't bad). Thanks for a great video, and I look forward to the next.

    • @Wishwader
      @Wishwader 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Sandra Halverson - i think it comes down to space above waist height - Sprinters have more tumblehome (the sides taper in more, so not as easy to fit a width oriented bed) and the fuel type (Sprinters tend to be diesel). Ultimately TH-camrs seem to be happy with any of them so can't go far wrong.

    • @kfstreich4787
      @kfstreich4787 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Promaster is fwd so it has a lower floor, not so good for off road but full stand up van in Promaster has less overall height

    I love to go grocery shopping at Vons, Safeway or Albertsons and get Lucerne milk in little bottles for my camping trips. It tastes better than the gallon jugs or the cartons. I never have to wash glasses and I never spill milk. I call it the Elixir of the Life, the Nectar of the Gods, the best water ever and the perfect smoothie. What I don't like about going shopping is going from the car to the store and back when it is 100 degrees, which is where I live.

    Instead of the plastic produce bags, maybe try some cotton reusable ones? Also a reusable cup and straw for your juice (just ask the person at the counter to out the drink in your own cup)! Treat the planet well!

    I watched all your videos and would like to know what you do for security? Do you have pepper spray, gun, any type of weapons? What if a wild animal, bum anybody tried to do anything to you. Do you have security measures in place or have you thought about it.
    I know you have been on the road for over a year and nothing has happened. You are smart but you never know. Just something to keep in mind for the future. Just looking for ya. 👍

    I have a few suggestions for future videos. 1. Your videos show a lot of beautiful scenery; deserts, mountains, beaches & lakes. Film your trips to these amazing locations, and use your reporter skills to share with us some local history and/or legends about your favorite places. 2. Go through your equipment with us. Cameras. Camera accessories. Editing software. Show us how you make your videos. And 3. Get quirky. Find a haunted road to drive down. Stop at some roadside attractions. Visit and film anything that peaks your interest, and don't worry if we might or might not like it because you never know what people will gravitate towards. Happy travels. :)

I try to stay away from processed food too but my budget including hygiene, household items and diapers is $250 a week. Now I have to add garlic sauce to my list or figure out how to make some. Have a good week.

    This may be a touchy subject, and I am totally fine if youre uncomfortable answering this question, but I was wondering about your financial situation. Ive seen your video about how you work, but Im more wondering about where mail and bills are delivered, if Van Life is a monthly cost, or yearly cost. How often it take to get repairs, etc. I recently discovered your channel and Ive watched every video. They are so fascinating! You never bore me, and you just have such a fun loving quality about you. I honestly always looked at Van Life as an inconvenience, but youve shown it to me it a totally different light. I love hearing about everything about it!
    Oh! Another video idea would be where you’ve traveled, what was your favorite location, and your favorite part of that area. Sorry for such a long comment! Sending lots of love and support!

    For condiments why not steal them from restaurants? Like you could have a McDonald's sweet and sour, Popeyes honey mustard, packets of ketchup and BK ranch!! Best of all worlds!!

    • @Phil1stalk
      @Phil1stalk 6 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Yeh, the packets are the way to go. Even mayo doesn't need to be refrigerated. But you don't need to steal from KFC to get packets. Buy them at the larger bulk stores that carry them!

    This is good advice and instruction for anybody living in any dwelling, house, apt., mobile, RV, etc.. It shows forethought, planning, list making, doing it (shopping), unpacking, and finally preparing anything. This is my first WBTM video. I don't know why she is doing this. But this was a nice, helpful, video for your grocery/living needs.
