🐻❄️A bit about us
We are Julia, Sven and Felix (🐻❄️), a family of travel enthusiasts from Germany. Our small vintage van Daisy takes us to the most beautiful places and accommodations all across the world and you are more than welcome to join us virtually in our trunk! #vanlife
For us, there‘s something good in every day even though there are moments when we need to dig deep to find it! Luckily we got Felix with us who loves digging haha 🤪
We are so happy to have you here!
Big hug ❤️

This is one of the most sweetest and coolest van homes I have ever seen. Love how you utilize every space. Very ingenious. And of course, Felix just adds to the ambiance of it all 🥰 Aloha from HAWAII
THANK YOU so much 😍❤️ we really appreciate that!
I agree
Jjk
You guys are GREAT👍❤️ Loved your video and Daisy is stunning👍👍👌
Nice
Very nice update of this classic. I had a '68 Westfalia, identical (including the exterior paint scheme!). One thing you might consider: I moved the spare to the front of the vehicle utilizing Unistrut to make a mount attached to the bumper. Then I used some of the foam and upholstery from that same front seat you've also removed to fill in the gap by the matress. I made a hinged plywood lid to cover the hole in the floor to create a small storage space. This made for much more comfortable sleep! Happy travels to you!
X,
Nice
perfect
😅😅
This van model has been my dream for over 30 years. I am not likely to ever own one, so it was a delight to be invited into yours. Thanks for the fun tour. Felix is adorable and you both are so charming. May you have safe travels.
This fluffy cloud makes the van life 100x better than usual
I actually like the original design with the darker wood and the tile flooring.
That doggo is the highlight. So cuteeeeeeeee
Ihr zwei seid voll süß, der Hund voll fluffig.😃 Was für ein tolles, altes Bullilein. Oldies but goldies!
Diese alten Autos sind einfach dankbar und HALTBAR und durchdacht und Ihr habt was Feines draus gemacht. Bravo!
Viel Freude damit. 👍👏🍀
All you need is enthusiasm and love for your partner and for life and adventure and with that you have the PERFECT setup☺️
Nice
Felix is gorgeous and so well behaved. Love your van so adorable.
You get an instant like from me just for the pop-up stove alone. I’ve seen many minivan builds as well as tiny house builds but I’ve never seen a pop-up stove like that before 👍.
Loved your video and bus! I had three in America back in the 1970’s traveling the country and camping in the great outdoors, so it really brings back memories. My creativity was pretty non existent compared to yours, but the memories of travels in my buses will last forever. So amazing how you have custom made your bus and used every little space imaginable. Happy travels!
I remember those 69 70 …..those were the days my friend
I thought they’d never end
You guys make me go on these kind of true adventures, and with a dog it requires too much attention and courage, also I love julia's wardrobe collection, lots of love and good wishes for this journey ❤️ 💖
Nice
What an awesome couple in such a beautiful van. I hope you guys have had amazing experiences in it.
I wish them all the best.
Nice job making your van fit your needs! Absolutely LOVE FELIX!! He needs to be a model in a calendar 🙂🙂
Blessings!
Ah! the music! the narrative! just PERFECT! Can't wait to explore more with you guys! All the best 🌻
Thanks so so much! We are so happy you like it 😍❤️
I dig this couple!! And I love their tiny home. Really nice. Thanks for sharing!
❤️💜💚
What a lovely couple. I wish that they are happy together and enjoy their new van to the full!
The most important, beautiful and valuable is the dog!!!🥰😍😘🤩
Yes the van is cosy yet functional and homey. I can feel how happy u guys are having such lovely home
Finally.. waiting for the day since so long.. can't wait to explore the world with you 3 specially Felix 😍❤️
Daisy is gorgeous and you’ve done a great job with her!! Our family had a 74’Orange Westfalia that 5 of us travelled in as a family to Disneyland and back,my youngest sister has had 2 VDub vans; a 67’ beige camper van and most recently “Old Blue” her 72’ Westfalia pop top van. I love all the details of your Daisy & look forward to hearing more about your adventures in her and with your gorgeous big white Samoyed pup❣️
I am actually super impressed by how you guys organize and utilize the space! I've see many conversions of this van. you literally did amazing! like if I have an opportunity to own one. your designs would be first on my list to use. Amazing
i can assure you my favoraite part about this tour was definitely felix 😆😆especially when he said when you first come in you will notice these two cups i immediately said you will notice felixxx oh my gosh i just love himm
You two are a lovely couple. Your enthusiasm & love of life shows. I like Felix a lot… he is well behaved. Can’t wait to see more of your travels. Thank you for sharing 🤗👍🏼🙏🏼
I love the clean, simplicity of your plan! The yellow is so perfect! On a side note, I also love your hair! The curls!
3:49 I liked the "dark" brown better.
Lovely dog 💛
Nice yellow seventies van!
Mini Daisy 🌼🌼🌼
Really clever storage solutions going on here and Daisy is such a cute van too
you two MUST continue to journal your travels and do as much videos as you can! I WILL WATCH and give thumbs up!! You two are SO FUNNY, I love your personalities, and I just love the funny cute things you say and of course your ACCENTS! I have watched the few videos that you have, and you make me smile and laugh out loud! Your own laughs are so contagious and Felix is so beautiful. I look forward to more videos and funny antics! God bless you both and safe travels in this crazy beautiful world.
You two are the sweetest couple. You are both positive which will help you succeed together. The van is so cozy!
Love how positive and happy they are. Wishing you all of the very best!
I love how you utilize all the spaces in your van. I also like the color of the van. It's so sunny and cheerful looking
Love the van! Perfect design and modern conveniences included !
Wonderful bus, and great to get to know you. The pop top makes all the difference. To be able to stand up is gold.
AAAAAH Memories!! I had a 1961 bus exactly like this inside!!! Only there was a backwards facing seat where your cooking cabinet is. Even had that mirror on the closet door, lol!! I loved my old bus. Thank you for the memories. 🙋♀️🤗❤️
Love your Van. Many blessings to the 3 of you, I wish for you. Enjoy. 😊 Your furry baby is a cutie.
Love your van 🌈 thanks for sharing 💗 Felix is a gorgeous Samoyed. I had two growing up. I know how special they are 💗🌷
This is FANTASTIC! You are such a lovely and stunning couple. It was a pleasure to see how you live and organize for travel, and also how you interact with each other. Sending love from Sarasota, Florida, USA!
Love this so much! I’d love to live in a van, there’s something satisfying about such a cute small space. Love it, thanks for sharing! 💕
Hey guys, I was so excited to see your first video since you started this adventure! 😍🎉 Love it!! I enjoyed the tour of the van, you guys did such a great job! 👏🏻 Wishing you the best on your journey!!
Thanks so so much 😍❤️
What an adorable van. The doggie is just precious!
I like how you customized it to your style and needs. Excellent job.
The fold-down hob is a stroke of genius! And the rest of the conversion of course! I'd put the spare wheel on the front of the van and build some extra storage where it is at the moment.
This van is so cuter than it has any right to be. It makes me smile! 😊
Damn 😍 really worth it thanks for getting more closer to all of us💕 all the best guys!
This has been a dream of mine since I was 13 years old...many many years later...it is time to DO it!!! Thanks for more inspiration! Lovely little family.
Incredible. A beautiful van with modern and vintage decor. It is fantastic and it works for the 3 of you. Nice touches you added. MANY happy travels to you three and thanks for sharing. Great video.
So so beautiful 😍 thank you so much for sharing. Wishing the 3 of you lots of more beautiful adventures to come ❤
What a great use of space, you have thought of everything! Happy Trails! And I love your puppy dog. Such a pretty puppy dog, Hi Felix!
What a cute set up you two I mean 3 have !!! Love your doggie too!!
I'm looking forward to following you along your travels . Such a beautiful job decorating your van home. 😎
I absolutely loved your video. Thank you for bringing back wonderful memories for me. I owned the exact year Westphalia. I drove all over the place with it. The most difficult time I had with it was when touring around the Columbia Ice Fields. Because the motor had little HP, it was very slow going up mountain roads. So much so, there were long lines of traffic behind me. So I got a bumper sticker, “Don’t Honk, I’m Pedaling as Fast as I Can.” I named my van, “Rolls-Kenardly.” It would roll down one hill and Kenardly get up the next. I’m so envious of you two. I just wish I had my Westphalia back again. It was relatively new when I purchased it. Safe journeys to you.
Such a terrific little home. So well planed and you guys are so adorable!
Can't decide what's more beautiful the Van or the three of you 🥰 such beautiful and lovely people and puppy too.
The couple is motivated and full of life. I wish you happiness and safety
You two are absolutely adorable 🥰 Thanks for sharing.
Aaa! So glad to see you here, guys! ^^
I'm already waiting for more videos from you. I keep my fingers crossed for the success with the new channel. Love you so much!
That’s so kind of you 😍 thank you
Your video results cheered me up. My favorite cars were old Volkswagens till I married a Swede and so now I'm a Volvo girl, who still loves the old VWs! I think you guys have made the best of it. Do get a heater though, it can get incredibly cold in these part of the world! ❤
I really enjoyed this video as you have done such a bright, peaceful and happy small space. You two are a beautiful couple on a life changing adventure.
Love daisy she is a beauty and Felix is so adorable. You both did a great job with the space it really has a lot of storage. I have a VW myself it’s a 1985 weekender no kitchenette but I make do with a lil butane portable one burner stove. I’m not living in mine but I totally would. These vans were so well made and they are classic and worth alot more these days if you have one hold onto it. They have so much character. Ty for sharing your home on wheels ✌️❤️🥳
Love it! This is the time of your life to be following your dreams!
Growing up my mom had the exactlyyyyy same van! The memories in our yellow van Bella aka little miss sunshine were the best I’ve ever made in my 17 years of my life!!
You guys are so cute. Thank you for sharing your beautiful Vintage Bus. Wishing you both and Felix Safe travels.
This van is cute and full of boho charm. You three are adorable.
Thank you for sharing your beautiful van with us. I happened upon your video two years after you first published it, so you probably already know this, but you could mount your spare tire on the front of your van to make your bed area larger. When I was growing up, my family used a van quite a bit like this one for camping every summer and then my father drove it back and forth to work the rest of the time, and that is where we kept our spare tire.
Oh wow das Video ist ja total viral gegangen 😍 das freut mich mega für euch und ist sowas von verdient!! Ihr gebt euch so unglaublich viel Mühe und macht einen so krass qualitativen content! Ich verfolge euch seit Jahren so gern 🥰
This is very well done! Father did a wonderful job on the cooking station!
Really cute! You have all u need. Love the bed idea. You can get someone to install the spare tire on the outside back of the van if u had to.
The coolest family 😍❤️
All the best guys 🙏
Beautiful.I had a 67 and 72 camper myself and I restored both but used them for their intended purpose.I still cant explain it but you become very attached to them like they are family
Very cute couple, love how happy you guys seem!
Your home is totally beautiful. Your both a adorable couple. I love your puppy 🐶 But all your hard work of designing your bus to how you want it is perfect. You have everything! I wish you the very best be safe... I love VW... I wish they would make the vintage Bug's and busses too..... Love you guy's!❤️👍🌺🌼🌺🌼🌸🌺
I love how happy you two are. 🥰
I couldn't stop smiling watching this vid! As a VW fan, it's a cool video!
THIS IS WHAT LIFE IS! You guys so good 😍
Awesome review! NIce van life! Amazing! THanks for sharing! Have a wonderful week!👍👍👍💐
Cant believe you got all of that in such a small space ! And again look at the buddy heaters ! They are small and work great !
Such a cute van.. and couple.. and dog! I enjoyed watching this video 🤗🐾🚚
What a cute little van. I love the color too. Thank you for sharing your home with us ❤
You guys are THE CUTEST THING. The cutest couple, dog, and bus. I love it, (Especially being a huge dog lover and VW Bus fan. Sending you wishes for the best of everything. Regards from Boston, MA.
Awesome! Groovey Van...totally dig it!
My family camped in one of these when I was a kid. I have fond memories. All 5 of us slept in it for our first few trips. I wish the newer VW's were sold in the USA. Enjoy your travels! Thanks for sharing!
These are my fave vans even though I'm happy with my 15 passenger van. So huge lol thankyou for sharing that gem.
I love daisies and always liked these Volkswagen vans. This is perfection ( especially with the dog in the picture.)
you guys bring so much joy to the video. enjoy life!
This couple and their van are adorable ❤️
YOU 3 are soo cute !!! Thanks for sharing !!! All Love to you & best wishes !!!
You are both (or I should say all 3) absolutely charming! Thanks for sharing your home!
You two are just as adorable as Daisy and your doggo! Thanks for sharing! 🥰
so genial - da habt ihr echt ein Sahneschnittchen Danke für das tolle Video. Greatings from Germany.
Really enjoyed watching this video, you guys are like sunshine! So sweet! Thanks for sharing :)
Love the tour! I have a yellow T2 as well but from 1972. Love your cooking cabinet. I might do something like that in the future.
My grandparents had a red one. Your video brought back fond memories.
Sweet couple, gorgeous puppy and a sweet little home. Love the yellow. We had hail today as well. Weird. Happy travels and be safe❤❤
I have always loved those VW buses. I love the color and everything you did to make it gone. Hello from Ecuador!!
Hi how are you doing?
Fantastic video! Welcome to Westfalia :) Beautifully renovated and personalized. I'm really looking forward to following your adventures!
I used to have a Samoyed! Great dogs, but they have a ton of fur they leave everywhere, and tend to take up a lot of room when they sleep....mine liked to really stretch out! Big fur baby for a tiny van!! It's always more fun to travel with your canine companion!!
So nice👍🏼i love it❤️ seems more spacious than what I thought.
Such a cute, personable couple and a great van.
You guys is so good at handmade somethingIt's. really a dream come true! Congrats!
