Thank you to the couple that shared their home. It’s lovely. Thank you for bringing these videos to us.
Loved the video! It was great meeting you for this. See you on the road 🚐
Had the honour of meeting Ben and Lucy! Lovely couple, and a beautiful part of the world! Great video guys! 👍😀❤🚐🚐
Love your vandelier idea.
'Every time something goes wrong on the van I just see it as an opportunity to learn a new skill.' Love your attitude.
Thanks for sharing.
This van is just gorgeous!! It's got such a charming farmhouse look with a touch of gypsy vardo. And your water heater is just genius!
BTW, I 𝘭𝘪𝘬𝘦 the "crappy music" and the "challenging accent". I always wonder why people think it necessary to leave comments like that? I hold it with Thumper in the movie Bambi. "𝘐𝘧 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘥𝘰𝘯'𝘵 𝘩𝘢𝘷𝘦 𝘴𝘰𝘮𝘦𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯' 𝘯𝘪𝘤𝘦 𝘵𝘰 𝘴𝘢𝘺, 𝘥𝘰𝘯'𝘵 𝘴𝘢𝘺 𝘯𝘰𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯' 𝘢𝘵 𝘢𝘭𝘭". 🐰😉
All YT channels want subs and views. If people find something (that’s easily avoided next time) distracting or not enjoyable, it should be viewed as helpful criticism. The music overshadowed her talking...which is the entire point of having her show their van.
Your Van is so Lovely 💖.
The prettiest and most artistic I’ve ever seen and is a true home.
I like his point At 4:03 !! about " not leaving anything behind and move on because , more and more people are doing this " what an excellent point !!.... in our city a ton of vans and campers are parking long term and taking away all the parking from our parks and leaving human waste and garbage behind so now the city will step in and ticket or tow them to move on ....no parking more then three hours ..I have no problem with the life style but when you want to visit a park but you cant find any parking ..and seeing people using the brushes as a toilet ..
Their channel is the best vanlife channel - Rust to roadtrip
I'm digging there DIY hot water heat hack 👍🏾
Absolutely love your van!!! Saved it in my favorites. I am so excited to get my van. I can hardly wait to build it out and get on the road 😊
I actually like the simplicity of this build. Up cycled wood everywhere, next step to convert to vegetable oil!
Congratulations to both of you. I love the life that you have construed. You appreciate and respect mother Earth and others. I hope one day to do the same as you and do some traveling and live simple and meet people and help people and share experiences together
Love what u have done to your "Van Studio"!.. Looks cozy & the wood makes it look like a house not a van! 👍🚐
Love your conversions and video, but as a person with hearing problems, the load music makes it hard for me to separate the sound and hear what you are saying.
Great video , Great van build lov it and lov her hair color will be following them
Fascinating solutions for van living. One of the things I'm always amazed by is peoples' toileting solutions ... some park near facilities, some use porta-loos, some dig cat holes ... Being someone who has issues with IBS, I shudder to think how some of those solutions would work for me! I know we all have different challenges, so I'm sure it's workable, you just have to figure out what works for you.
Awesome Van! I am really intrigued with your water heater, it's an amazing idea! Keep enjoying!
Nice build. Thanks for sharing your sweet van!
Why NOT! I love it. Happiness is made NOT a given.
Well done!Very creative👍I live in my modified 1987 Toyota Slumber Queen. In B.C. 🇨🇦 My cats have 2 cat runs and soon a garden!!Minimalist lifestyle is great!!
the casualness used when saying "or vandelier as we like to call it" caught me off guard and I laughed so hard.
Wonderful! And love the innovative water set up. Well done. The timber work is lovely. And sweet girl just tops this vid off. There are too many great people I want to follow in vans. Wish there were more hours in the day. I am so going to get a van and try to do a few of the lovely timberwork I see in so many tiny homes on wheels. Much nicer than houses.
Showers outside, wild nature 👍
going with the flow and good attitude you got it made with the good and bad nice couple great experience living in the van greetings from the states
“It’s all just parts” ❤️
Quite a lovely hostess. Love the van, the decor, and her shorts!
She is thicccc
Great van and hostess
U niggas creepy af
Love it ..and love her wild hair❤️❤️❤️❤️
What a clever couple you are! A great conversion and I really appreciate that changes were made along the way. You only every really get to know your home until you actually live in it. PS Beautiful accent, but please slow it down a bit. I understood everything, but the speed of the delivery prevented the full digestion of some interesting details. A pause here and there means we have time to look, understand and admire. Good luck to you both and keep enjoying life!
Great van build, engaging couple and it would have been good editing except for the OBNOXIOUS music volume. If I hadn't been into the rest of the content the music was so distracting it would have chased me away.
100% agree. Could hardly hear the explanations over the music!
you should put what FLORB stands for in the description of all your vids because I forgot and want to remember.
a trick : watch series on flixzone. Been using it for watching a lot of movies recently.
@Jared Zayden yup, I've been watching on flixzone for months myself :)
Floating Orb
Great couple, very creative and practical, they will do well in life.
Love the video, and I don't have a problem with the music; I can hear just fine.
Yes, but you have a fantastic cozy home. 😍
Gorgous van !! One of the nicest I've seen!
Hi guys im gonna/maybe get an ldv convoy but its not a high top. So i might splice a pop up roof. Love van life!! ❤
Very cool van. Different. I like the rustic look.
Lovely couple, great van. Your accents is so lovely, didn’t think you were hard to understand. Let’s just be nice and except people the way they are. If you can’t turn it off. Have fun linda
I dig it. 👍
Love the Cottage style wood clad interior :D
Nice cornish couple...lovely van...I believe they are currently in europe🤙
Great van, love the convoy, slow van but the 2.4 ford diesel has 75hp....in the transit its as high as 135hp, just add a new turbo, camshafts, exhaust and air intake and you should be good
Can’t wait to see more of your sailing adventures!
that's quite the hot water heater - dang !
Sweeeeet I Like it !!!
Cool van Amazing People
cannot understand half of what you say, but get the idea thru the video. i have a van also, but need a few updates so always looking.
I cannot hear them over the annoying music!
Well, since the music sux i could hear everything they said,it's like people in open market.
Charming. 😊
Well done.xxx
I love Cornwall!!!
Love seeing lived-in tinies.
That hair is awesome.
The wooden beads to have that color of rear doors were treated with fire?
Did you do all the work yourself or get expert tradesmen for any of it ?
It's very nice.
Are you parked on top of the cliff most of the time ?
Do you sell birthday cakes, the lady mentioned about cooking birthday cakes in the cooker.i assume its sales to some local cafe ?
Sow AG Thank you, and we made it all ourselves! We park wherever we fancy, usually somewhere different every night.
That’s a funny assumption you’d make, if only we could make money selling cakes or something else we could keep travelling forever! But sadly this was just a birthday cake for Ben 🎂
2.4 Duratorq? Thats why you spent 5k in mechanics. 2.5 DI is the way to go on ford transits and ldvs :)
Alex Pacheco Haha we’ve heard this argument many times, but overall our engine has been very reliable... it’s just everything else that breaks 😂
I really don't think you should show their registration number!
👍👍👍
I like it.
I don't even know where to Begin the list of things that I will be either steeling outright or are something that I'm going to further improvise with for the {eventual} extended cargo van build-out.
*Standing* *Ovation*
These kids ever consider putting all of this into an online book with sketch-up diagrams for components and layout???
Because I will force the nearest available Millennial into the yeoman's task of teaching me how to do an on-line-thing-y-type purchase of said e-book... and then they can walk me through the in's and out's of e-book reading... sigh... technology wise, I think we're working somewhere around the 1998 tech level... le sigh, le heave...

*smooch* !!!
Steve Zytveld Hey guys, so we don’t have an ebook but we do have a comprehensive guide on how we built our van over on our website. It does need a little updating but we’ll leave the link here for you ✌️ www.fromrusttoroadtrip.com/thebuild
@@FromRustToRoadtrip That's wonderful! Thank you so much.
Do you two have a YT for your travels?
Steve Zytveld Yep just click our profile picture and you’ll go through to our latest adventures :)
I like
$11k isn't real budgety, but it's all perspective I guess. Nice couple. I'm not a potter nerd, but I'd like to hear her say his name.
What do you run off electricity since 100 watts is enough for you?
Rust never ends with a beach van 😂🤣😂
Dylan can u turn down the music next time and a less distracting song would be better
I looked at her hair at 0:05 i thought i was tripping...
I have a question - can he stand up or move in the van? He seems like a huge guy...she can fit as she's petite.
Presca From BC Correct, I am a huge guy and can not move around very well haha! I have to sleep at a funny angle and get a stiff neck cooking. But it’s totally worth it for the lifestyle
Damnnnnnn 🔥🔥🔥⚡⚡
Really difficult to hear her with this music
Lead Acid batteries under the bed? From what I've read when these guys are receiving full charging power from a solar setup they can emit sulphur dioxide and hydrogen.
I'm hoping they are AGM's but don't look like it.
Where do you shower?
OLDSKOOL FLAVA
lovely
Super early here!
♥️♥️♥️♥️
Tip- distracting music volume once she gets into explaining the garage
Nice video, but the music is way too loud.
Why does there have to be music competing with the talking? It's hard enough to hear what the wind blowing. But, no!!! We must have some drumming and some whistling.
Would be a decent video but the ridiculous whistling music is so distracting I had to get out of it.
better than a studio you got some ba$## saying that you going to get in trouble with apartment studio owners like in New York where i heard they go for as much as $1,500 or more, anyway GREAT decision to Slim down!!
1500 might get you a studio in NY but it's probably closer to 2000
Do you follow Indian culture? I saw a sheet of Ganpati Idol in the van;
Please. Do NOT have background music during the times people are speaking! It distracts from what is being said and not infrequently the music partially muffles words.
I like their place but next time caned the music
I would like yo know how 100 watts solar panel is good enough in the sunny england!! Very annoying music!! Had to leave after few mins!!👎
not first
Are you Indian? You have a om sign in your logo!
People remember that these videos are on the World Wide Web, so there is going to be different accents. Some people have to strain to understand you. What is even more of a challenge music can further inhibit hearing. Besides that the music was just so annoying, I couldn't any further than 3 minutes into it. I bet it was probably a nice build. Remember, speak clearly, speak up and NO music unless it is very, very low.
Have to go...annoying whistling/ music?!!? Yuck.
Slim thicky 🤤
I don't want to be that guy but..... I mean do I even have to say it? 👀
I'll do it: "I'd tap that... van"
😩😩😩🤣🤣🤣
What is the purpose of slapping crappy "music" on a video where comprehension is already challenged by an accent?
What accent? This is English!
English is challenging? I recommend not traveling to England for you!!
also! don't like the whistling
First
First!♥️
"we're into minimalism"
*both have dyed hair*
me :🙄
What's non minimalistic about dyed hair?
Having dyed hair has nothing to do with minimalism, genius
Annoying music ....
For some reason, it's an instant turn off in these videos to see a girlfriend/wife and boyfriend/husband doing these living in automobiles thingy. I can honestly say that I'm so far away from being jealous or anything stupid some idiot might think but purely psychological. I may get disgusted to see couples doing this possible because I'd rather see loner qualities in these living styles. Isn't it the whole point that you are off the grid and independent individuals? Otherwise in these couple things it's too much of playing house. LOL lol LOL
